OOC Thread and Chatroom

[everyone]

your character's 18, you can check the Senatorial library
wow we've already made our OOC thread to the 6th page

[navarro951]

pretty sweet haha

[everyone]

takin it again...

I still think we should have waited for desert/roka/potocello to take the save; they've been sitting around for a few turns already. (well that's natural for potocello since he has no duties ingame as of now)
anyway you're going to create a new provincial dictator the next session right? just asking.

[/Bean\]

Can you create a Provincial Dictator before the COngressional session?

roka is having comp trouble so he wont move, potocello will have to wait for the next legion anyway, and desert is creating his story so that can be done whenever. If he still plans to follow Legio I he aint missin much he can do that this turn and make it there in 1 move.

and im not making a prov dictator, im making a new rank thats like an "acting prov dictator" which will go to Roka till he fixes his game.

Yeah, I agree with this. Having the save progress two seasons in two hours is a little bit fast. I didn't get time to answer that yes, it was okay for Dux Asina to take the city without me. (Thanks for asking! )

[navarro951]

See u told ya, and i understand it was quick but TCV you said in your SOT move me to Legio I, and i figured i would do you the favor being busy now as Basileus in WoTB and everyone else i explained you know? After 269 is up and people have more positions of power and their will be another Legion, we will be able to slow down as more people will be moving you know.

[navarro951]

Not really, you have to be a Dux with enough points to be a Quaestor to get that title.

Edit: Cept for everyone...he can with a couple more victories!

eh? aren't Quaestors and Prov. Dictators different things?

[/Bean\]

Well yeah, but you have to be a Queastor to be a Prov. Dictator...i think

I wasn't objecting to you moving me, that's all well and good. What I was objecting to was the pace of which this game is advancing. I could have moved myself now, everyone could have attacked, and even though desert is only making his story, he should still be given the time to move around as he please. To go on fast now I can understand, but just giving 2 hours is too fast.

[navarro951]

ya from now on 24 hours guys you have my word unless were all agreed its cool to take it...my apologies.

[/Bean\]

No harm done Navarro. Make all the mistakes now so that we learn quickly what works and what doesn't.

Well, there was a small damage done in that everyone had to attack one turn later. Yes. Hrrm. I said small, didn't I?

[everyone]

well not actually, I think there would be no difference if I attacked this turn or in the previous turn, in both turns the gate wasn't busted. but Cotta (Baen) became practical (+1 management) while waiting outside Rhegion!

[navarro951]

thats good news! and hey another good job. tough battle i bet huh? losses could of been alot worse.

[everyone]

actually, the number doesn't seem a lot once the battle is over; it just seems like what happened after Taras if you take a look at my SOT.
and thanks to the chirurgeon ancillary, the number of casualties were lowered.

edit: and the congressional session starts next turn right?

[navarro951]

ya i love that one haha, o and the reason you declare is because in a sense you "own" his oath of loyalty and serving you so you have to allow that to be relinquished.

@baen: good luck ill put your legion together as soon as it can be done

[everyone]

ah, I see.

well I can foresee that you're probably going to announce the event during the Congressional session; and some campaigns are going to be sent to wherever you decide the event to be....and so on. I'm guessing rule 4.4's going to be included

and maybe that's also what the extra legion is for >)

[/Bean\]

Yeah, actually, about that Navarro. I'm not ungrateful or anything, actually, i'm flattered, but I would prefer to be given a small command of my own before being granted an entire legion. Kind of like an advance force for softening up the enemy or pursuing forces outside the enemy main army. I think it would be inaccurate to give me an entire legion when i have not actually had any independent command of my own as of yet. What do you think?

[navarro951]

@everyone: you on the money haha.

@baen: you'll be fine discuss tactics with everyone IC through PMs he's realeasing you he must know what hes doing so...read everyone's post...go read rule 4.4. can you say "joint" operation. you wont be alone out there

[navarro951]

Asina nods
"Yes, sir, I shall deliver the news to Legatus Asina; him, Tribunus Regvlvs and I would return to this Senate Chamber when Spring arrives for the Congressional Session."
Asina then takes a step back to await any further orders before leaving the chambers.

forgetting your own rank or forgetting who you are hehe

[everyone]

actually I meant to type Legatus Cotta. dammit! I forgot who I am! I unintentionally foreshadowed this in one of my Stories in the Stories thread

[/Bean\]

Oh I get that, but dont you think giving command of an entire legion to an untested eighteen year old is a bit...iffy?

[navarro951]

well Baen, if Roka wasnt haven comp problems I wouldnt have to. But your the only other legatus weve got out there now and we need you to support the push north. and in teh 260's will have the punic wars to worry about. we need ya. besides your legion will be light i wont throw you into anything tough, strictly field battles with even odds as best as i can arrange that.

Your legion i imagine like this:
Yourself, a Tribunus (if one vows to serve with you)
2 Hastati/ or Triarii
2 Rorarii
2 Leves
2 Eqvites Romani

or ill give you a legion made up of Italic Allies which ill have to decide later.

[everyone]

but dont you think giving command of an entire legion to an untested eighteen year old is a bit...iffy?

an eighteen-year-old with......good leadership, good connections and a recommendation from a rather high-ranked general?

[navarro951]

exactly and 2 years legionary service in famed battles!

[/Bean\]

We're pushing north? Awesome! But yeah, fine. I'll have to add some more heroics and command proof to my frontline stories then. Add some independent commands there. That ought to do.

[everyone]

speaking of which, you're still not done with your story of the battle of taras. I'm still waiting for the rest, you said the one that's currently there is just the intro! heh

edit: woot! we got our own forum!!!1111one!11

[/Bean\]

Yeah I'm doing bits to it all the time, Everyone. I'll try and do a frontline story for most battles. And, woo we got our forum! Is TC going to move all these threads?
