Thread: Cvria Ivlia, Consulate of Sabinus/Lepidus

    No wait, does he have another alternative to present as plan of action? Shall we move this forward?
    "Romans not only easily conquered those who fought by cutting, but mocked them too. For the cut, even delivered with force, frequently does not kill, when the vital parts are protected by equipment and bone. On the contrary, a point brought to bear is fatal at two inches; for it is necessary that whatever vital parts it penetrates, it is immersed. Next, when a cut is delivered, the right arm and flank are exposed. However, the point is delivered with the cover of the body and wounds the enemy before he sees it."

    OK, since he didn't present any further alternatives, and isn't reading this now, I oficially declare the voting on the Calabrian issue open, already with my vote included.

    Yay, We shall attack Calabria along with Pyrrhus - I
    Nay, we should bypass and ignore Calabria - N

    Gracchus no more debating once the vote is called, unless your voting and thats your final argument.

    Nay, we should bypass and ignore Calabria - N

    Well so much happened in so little time, but heres my vote at any rate the censors legion plan seams to me to be the most flexible and best able to deal with whatever problems arise.

    Hey don't forget that there are two votes for attacking Calabria.

    "Romans not only easily conquered those who fought by cutting, but mocked them too. For the cut, even delivered with force, frequently does not kill, when the vital parts are protected by equipment and bone. On the contrary, a point brought to bear is fatal at two inches; for it is necessary that whatever vital parts it penetrates, it is immersed. Next, when a cut is delivered, the right arm and flank are exposed. However, the point is delivered with the cover of the body and wounds the enemy before he sees it."

    We should bypass and ignore Calabria - VI
