    Migrate them to te balticum, their FMs(and all others that come with them) would simply freak out in that climate :D or gotland, like Napoleon was exiled on St Helena to think about the vanity of human ambition.

    Of course. Esecially since there is no scientific proof of their so-called "lineage" and the small fact that the city of Troy was long in ruins. Yep, makes perfect sense.

    Hmm... it was because they are unfit elsewhere aside latium, so, giving their ancestral homeland... (RP they are exiled back to Troy...) is a good idea.... (so they could keep Grey death in check)

    It's true they're unfit elsewhere, mainly because of theri unique culture. But the rationale of moving them to a place that might not even be their homeland (in terms of scientific lineage), especially when that place they once occupied is long in ruins, seems at least weak to me. But don't take me wrong; there's nothing bad with doing it. I'll be the last person to point a finger at you. After all, you also happen to be a fellow Romaioktonos.

    Well... You could send them to the ruins of Troy or bury them under the ruins of Roma

    Oh yes, I forgot the Romans were Trojan exiles. Now let's all go to Oz and follow the yellow-brick road.

    Or you can move them to Theraza (or whatever that town on down-left corner of the screen is called): there they will have those salt-mines to work in, like a slaves, and, who knows: maybe if you let them live you can make a profit from it

    I don't think so, because if u do that, they will also get those arabian desert area...
    Maybe throwing them to Ireland was better than this... but then, sending them back to Troy and let them rebuild Paris' home and try to molest a Hellen again... so we could make a new Trojan horse for them...

    But Ireland is a beautiful country: those dirty barbarians dont deserve to live there, nor in Troy. Btw im sure that they werent sons of Eneas at all: they just wanted to legitimate themselves as a beings with civilised roots, so they wrote those myths and lied about themselves... those hypocrites

    I change my mind (youre right about arabian desert: they dont deserve even that): SO WIPE THEM OUT OF EXISTENCE!!

    i guess you could put them on britain .. if the AI for romans is anything like the casse , they should sit outside the rebel towns with full stacks for 2000000 years.

    nono, the men serve as excellent rollers for transporting marble, saving the precious timber for sarrisae-making.

    The women on the other hand, are only good for animal feed, I tried breeding them in pens using a hog... I had no luck whatsoever.

    guess you are a really bad sexist sax! Roman MEN does deserve the toil, but those women deserve something better to become a wife of Hellenes, Karthadast, or even Keltoi men... so there would be no more Romans

    They can also serve as self-propelled provision for the Makedonian troops.

    I suppose none of you knew that all those women were stolen too... Romulus had a MASSIVE party and invited all the surrounding villages at the time to dine in what became Rome... They then sent people to those villages whose men were in Roma... AND STOLE ALL THEIR WOMEN! Now thats what I call sneaky.



    EDIT: Which is why you should rape, pillage, and defile their village!
