Life of a Roman: An AAR

[johnhughthom]

I have some in-character questions for you:

So the Nuraghi just let themselves be sold off as slaves?
With the profit from 600 slaves, couldn't you afford the armor of a full triarius? I'd imagine that you could even buy a mansion in Roma with that kind of money!

Like I said earlier in the AAR the tribes chieftan has life or death power over everyone else. The tribesmen weren't told they were being sold as slaves, they were told "those wagons will transport you to the docks where you will set sail for home." Then the gates were locked.
He is probably too young to be one of the Triarii (early twenties) and he hasn't spent all his money yet...
