Will of the Thengoz - An interactive Swêbóz AAR

[HunGeneral]

Hadubrand again steps forward and speaks:

"Yes of course the true reward for any warrior who fights bravely are the spoils of war. Both Arnulf and Theudanaz are right that the lands of the east and west could give us more riches than the Silengoz.
However we could take the east later but the kingdoms and other great tribes to the south are more than willing to conquer and subdue other peoples and tribes and if they subdue the Silengoz or the Silengoz submit to them freely then we would have to fight these aswell. About the Celts to the west - let them fight eachother now, when they are weak enough we can conquer them easely"

[SwissBarbar]

They fight each other for decades. They are weak now. We should not wait until one tribe gets the overhand, especially the Aedui or Arverni, who are getting more powerful every day. Now is the time when they are weakest. Now is the time to strike and get their lands. You keep the wealth, Hadubrand, I get the women! laughs loudly

[Tolg]

(Segmer who seemed to have been lost in thoughts ever since Arnulf mentioned the harbours of the Belgae, suddenly rises and starts speaking, once again addressing only the king.)


"My King, we all say the Gauls are weak. So why are they weak? (He makes a short rhetorical break) Because they aren't united, because they fight against their own people, their own blood, let's not make the same failure!
The Sueni are of no significant importance and the lands to the east aren't worth the endeavors of conquering them. However it is necessary to show the Silengôz that it won't do them any good to defy your power.
Hence I propose: First, let's head south to the lands of our noncompliant brethren and then west to spill the blood and take the towns of the Gauls, before they can regain their former strength.

[SwissBarbar]

The Rugôz has only one eye, but he sees the facts concerning the Celts sharp-eyed and with keen mind.

[Olaf Blackeyes]

(Richemer steppes forward to speak)

My High King i would have to agree with Segmer on this point. The disunity of the peoples beyond the mighty Rhine is a mistake that we should learn from it first and THEN exploit it. I agree that the celts have many nice things, whether they live in Gaul, Briton, or Ebornum. But with so many enemies around our great people we need to stand united and have our homeland secure, before we can even dream of attacking our foes across the Rhine.
(He then turns and stares at Arnulf)
AND AS FOR YOU BOY! You do your King a disservice for not honoring his accomplishments AND his title that he has earned accordingly, and if it were left up to me you would be skinned alive.
(Several Makromannoz roar their agreement)
But it is not my place to make such choices so count yourself LUCKY!

(Richemer steppes back into the crowd)
