    Default Campus Martius


    The Campus Martius is the area where the Consuls will call the levy. Responding centuries will gather. It is possible for anyone to register in the levy, but commissions are granted at the discretion of the Consuls. Once granted, rank cannot be revoked. Consuls may hold a levy at any time and draw any number of troops desired up to the maximum

    Lucius Horatius Tiberinus, Consul of Rome, arrives at the levy location. He examines the rosters and numbers for both Rome and Ostia. He strokes his smooth chin slightly before writing down orders which he gave to two riders...one departed for Ostia and the other back to Rome.

    Drawn Levies
    Rome: 6,000 light infantry, 9,500 heavy infantry, 900 cavalry
    Ostia: 1,000 light infantry, 1,500 heavy infantry, 100 cavalry

    Lucius then heads off to dress himself for the march ahead. He awaited news of the levies that would be arriving soon.

    Note: Remember! It is possible for anyone to register in the levy, but commissions are granted at the discretion of the Consuls. So if any of you wanna gamble your lives, come and join!

    OOC: Can't be a 'leader,' leader is the Consul. You can either participate as a soldier, cavalry or commander of a century.

    Tullius is shown to the tent of the Consul, Lucius Tiberinus where he is speaking with some of the commanders who had brought their centuries from Rome, while others were getting their troops together or marching towards Campus Martius. Lucius looks up from his desk.

    Hello Roman. What is your name? You do not look familiar to me, good Roman.

    OOC: Also you may die in battle. Chances going up if Rome loses. You may be captured and ransomed. However, if Rome wins, you may loot a piece of armor if the rolls favor you. You need to own a horse to be part of the Cavalry.

    He entered and bowed his head, after that he said

    My name is Marcus Camillus Tullius, Consul. I believe we have seen each other before in the Curia

    Ah yes, Tullius. I do remember you speaking before I left.

    The Consul now stands up as his eyes look upon the Roman before him.

    What brings you to my attention on the eve of a march?

    Lucius ponders some before speaking with one of the senior commanders who gives him a roster. He checks it silently before looking at Tullius.

    You are in luck. One of the Century's commanders has become ill on the eve of battle...you shall command his century. Report to Northern camp, third circle. You will be commanding 100 men of Hostilius' Century during this campaign.

    Titus is shown the command tent as the drums were being played for the final hours before the march. Lucius stood in full military regalia as his eyes looked to Titus.

    Salve Roman. What is your name? I know your face from the Curia, but not your name.

    Then let it be so. Take over a century from one of the camps belonging to the soldiers from Ostia.

    Lucius immediately grabs his helmet and leaves the tent now. He mounts his steed as the drums and horns of marching were made. 19,000 troops and 1,000 cavalry fell into marching formations and began their march southeast for their Volscii enemy.

    The Roman army returns home and the levies disbanded under Consul Tiberinus' orders. He then leaves the Campis Martius after changing back into his toga.

    Titus follows suit, wishing each man within his Century well and thanking each of them for their bravery, then he headed back to the Curia in hopes that he missed nothing important.
