Baen, i hope you dont mind but i moved Legio II forward last turn as you seemed to of not had the time to do it. I know full well the stress RL can put on these games so I hope you dont mind. You move is open this turn i did not do that so you time to besiege Segestica is now

also, because their is a Dux Campaign in progress, all Tribuni will be noted of any battles they serve in it, but will not be promoted until it is over. So I will know who gets their promotion dont worry, its just that as it is in progress you must serve your time out as a second or third command in one of this games highest honors.

I'm looking forward to my character's promotion to Legatus after the next battle, assuming Bean doesn't kill me accidentally.

LoL, same here ,save switch Poto for Bean. The gods be with us both!

[/Bean\]

It's in my PM anyway Navarro

[Tiberius Claudius Marcellus]

Legio III is not ready....again? Most disturbing.

[Potocello]

hi guys. sorry about the inactivity, i was dragged away for the weekend to vermont and i had nooo internet. looks like i really miss a lot when i go away.

i'll ketch up on what's going on and i'll do what i need to do with the save

[Potocello]

okay Bean you may move the Lego III to where ever as Dux.

sorry again about this guys

[/Bean\]

I can't go on EB again until tomorrow night. Stick it in your SOT for Navarro or Everyone.

[navarro951]

Ill be sure to move Legio III then, taking the save in an hour. Baen do i need to move you to?

[/Bean\]

Please, I wont be able to until the next turn anyway. I dont want to be slow.

Oh, and is Avlvs Aemilii (SwissBarbar) still allowed to be in Legio II, if he's the Tribunus Plebis? If so would he just not be promoted afterwards?

[Mooks]

Marcellus seems to be the most active out of any of the characters in legio III (maybe even in the whole BTSH). Perhaps he should have the same movement powers as potocello? Potocello seems to have lots of RL issues going on.

[/Bean\]

Marcellus will be a Legate after this campaign. If he doesnt get his own legion he can always challenge Potocello for leadership. I think that should be played more often; a web of apparant and loose alliances, with lots of backstabbings and competition. It will make the game much more interesting.

[everyone]

yes, and apparently Tiberius (aka Marcellus) is the most unpredictable character in the Curia, so I (and Cicero) might even think challenging Longus for command is possible.
but we already have some secret political alliances which are not official yet

[/Bean\]

shh...

[Tiberius Claudius Marcellus]

Very interesting conversations...... O:-) Of course, I would only ever attempt to take control of the Legion from such a good in-game friend if he really just couldn't keep playing IRL. But, I am willing to take that option, I already set up the RP aspect w/ some PM's between me, Scipio, and Longus.

Perhaps we may need an emergency session in the Senate to proclaim a new leader of the Legio III if Poto is unable to play?

[Potocello]

oh boy looks like a lot happens when i go away for the weekend. i can keep playing and i can move the Legio III around but i have school and work during the day. this means that the only time i can really play is at night time and on the weekends.
not going to lie, i would be pretty bummed if i lost the legio III

If this is an issue, i guess BtSH isn't for me

[Tiberius Claudius Marcellus]

I would be too, you're good to play with. I don't think that you'll lose it. A suggestion, if you're open to it: Update your SOT so that way one of us in the legion or the COL can move your legion for you when you know you'll be away. It's not like we're going to take it someplace far away and delete all the units, you know? And, if you know you'll be away for a few days just give a heads up!

EDIT:

Miscellaneous:

the Legio III may have units retrained after a battle. Send PM or notify me another way after move is done. Dux and/or Consuls may move my character to keep up with a Dux Campain i am apart of.

Awesome, looks like Bean/Navarro/everyone can move Legio III if it hasn't been yet.

Yes, you would love to see Legio III have inter-legion strife (I just made up a hyphenated word) . We are the most united of all the legions, I can assure you.

How do I know? Marcellus was at my place last week for tea time. And we are both american. Beat that.

"Inter-legion strife"... wouldn't that be strife between different legions, not within one?

"Internal strife" would've been more appropriate, I think.

Good point, except you forgot the fact that its a completely new word, so it can mean whatever I want it to mean. ;)

[The Celtic Viking]

I suppose, though some logic and consistency about it would be nice.

Damn, now I really want to break you lot up

Thats easy...I'm British (jk)

It was a joke about how americans dont have "tea time". Yet we still did it. Infact tea time is pretty much considered "Your either gay or british, most likely gay" where I come from.

We all know how the moderators love to clamp down on free speech, citing that its 'inciting a riot', etc. Let's extinguish the flames before they close the whole BTSH thread.

And, for the record, I am a coffee man

[/Bean\]

You know me, I couldnt resist...or even worse let someone else say it. I did put (jk) at the end though.

I sent a msg to (kipzfish) telling him he should join. Seems like a better choice being a tribune in a already prestigious legion then aedile of Segesta.

And once we get more people, we should be having an Aedile for every city besides Roma, unless its in a Provincial Dictatorship.

Alright, it wasnt intentional I dont think anyway

[The Celtic Viking]

EDIT...Everyone it's still Summer on TCV's save...did you not end the turn?

He didn't, which is good because that's Navarro's job.

In any case it's not summer in my save, at least not the summer of 261 BCE. Otherwise I couldn't have reached Segestica. (I literally had to force march through the summer to even get within range.)

[/Bean\]

It says Autumn in Everyones latest report, yet your save is still summer. Your besieging Segestica but I'm still building the rams. Maybe Everyone wrote Autumn rather than Summer

[The Celtic Viking]

Did you actually check the traits? You can't trust anything else. (And if I'm besieging Segestica, then it can't be summer 261 BCE, or someone else decided to give me exactly as much movement points as I would get in autumn. )

[/Bean\]

But it is summer, I loaded the game three times to check. Thats what I dont understand
