Men! You may be asking why I've bought you here out in the middle of the desert. Some of you may be overheating from exhaustion, Some will not even want to fight in these conditions. That is cowardice! You are brave men of the Selecuid Empire, we sons of Alexander, Zeus and the Greeks can look at the fool hardy Romans over there that manage to defy us for the might of Rome! Rome! Hah! It is funny that these Romans were nearly annihalited by Hannibal and Prrhyus over one hundred centuries back! These teacheraos and limey Romans indulge in orgies, profit and bribery. They bribe honest Greeks and make them work as slaves! I, General Alexandros Magsetifuous, have battled against these Romans many countless of times, I can even count the numbers on my fingers. You are all my worthy men which have fought many tremendous battles with me. I ask you, soldiers and sons of Zeus, to raise your sheild and sarrsia and give the Romans a good beating! Perhaps they will not tolerate our powerful phalanxes! And so brave sons of the Empire, we go now to our bloody business!
Here's one for the Selecuids and the Parthians
There stand the Parthian Army. Hmm, they are a bunch of good for nothing cowards saddled on their horses as they rain storm of arrows upon us every time they attack us. And this has not been useful for us, soldiers of the Empire. Many a time had we the advantage, had we the army, had we the phalaxnes. Yet they have defeated us countless of times. And by how? Cavarly. It is strange yet so unique for these Parthians not to even have proper infantry! It is a wonder they have surivied.
Which is why it is left to me, the Prince of the Empire, to crush the Parthians once and for all! They defy our might, they defy our protection, they defy the rights and privileges we Selecuids give them! They are unloyal fools and cowards who will bow only to the sound of gold. Rest assured my men, I have bought enough cavalry to counter them. With our horse archers we shall show them what they are. With our elite cavarly, they shall stomp the Parthians out of the ground. But do not underestimate them men, they are still sturdy fighters and they won't give up without a fight!
Which is why the Omen of Zeus was asked yesterday, and they predicited it would be a worthy victory. So then sons of our glorious Empire, will you desert us? Or will you fight and gain victory?
Rome vs Selecuids
I can barely laugh at the Selecuids incompetence! Proper Roman fashioned arms and steel is the answer. Yes, that's the answer. These Makedonians are liable to be exploited yet these Selecuids aren't like them. Brave men that's for sure, but they think they are in the days of Alexander. I've read Alexander and I can tell you, had they all united together, we Romans would not be able to defeated the Empire! But these Makedonians and Greeks are all the same. All you need to do is divide and rule! Bribe the other greek while using them against another! Hah.
The Senate will reward us greatly, Legions of Rome, if we follow our duty, our principles, our diginity and finish off this Greek Power once and for all, and then we will have achieved hegamony. No Greek shall ever raise his head again! We did that to Carthage, but we cannot forget Hannibal! No, not Hannibal. But the Greeks over there have no leaders worthy of being Alexander! We, the Legions of the XI and the XIV will show them. We can beat them men. The oracles say we will not win but I barely care. I've been in war for over twenty five years. Do you think I would lead you like an inexperinced senate soft boy who likes the taste of men and women? No, I am a veteran. I am a leader, and I will lead you to your victory! Be it defeat or victory, we will show these Greeks who are the masters of the world. Their time is gone. It is the time for Rome to rise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Parthian vs Selecuids
We face the Selecuids. The Selecuids my men, the descendants of Alexander threaten to finish off the last and great Persian state. We are also the descendants of Darius! We once ruled the entire area of Asia! And now? Now we see these greedy greek bastards bribing us and taking our women and children away to turn into them little greeks! They once ruled our country, they dictated our laws, but they were not enough! Alexander is no more, and what does this mean brave warriors? It means they will fight and squabble over one another! No longer shall we face their rule. It is time for us to reclaim our empire, reclaim what was once ours! The Suns will soak with Greek Blood today!!
Arveni vs Rome.
You see that red mass over there lads? That is the might of Rome! Romans ready to be butchered and killed! It has been far too long since they crushed their enemies and now they turn to us! Why, we never sought war! I have a wife and son, why should the Romans be so interested in them? To turn them into slaves and whores? To be killed by them? Will I tolerate them killing my family? Never! It is a shame that none of the other tribes unite, for if we did, we could drive the Romans out of our lands once and for all. But that is not what we are doing. I bought you here for one reason. To defeat these Romans. And we shall butcher every one of them until no Roman can say the words, ' Veni, Vidi, Vici'.
