Council thread

[TheFlax]

Visimar seems pensive.

"It is true that my sons are further then wisdom would call for. This is unfortunate. However, our brave fighting men should not be belittled. It is true I have crushed the Romans on several occasions, but our captains have won all of their battles. However, if it is feared that they will not acquit themselves in the most valorous capacity, then perhaps they could be sent to besiege poorly defended targets, it would serve the same purpose, but with less risk."

"Very well, sir. If you trust them, then I agree with it. It's a sound plan. Now, if I may..."

Boiocalus clears his throat.

"I propose Edict 3.1: Oza should immediately move north into Gaul to spy out the Roman presence."

[Lord of Lent]

Marobuduus stands...

Boiocalus, it's good to see you! In the absence of my brothers, it is nice to have someone to talk with.

First of all: I second Edit 3.1!

Secondly, Father, did you ever consider to send an army northwards? A lot of undefended settlements are there and maybe we could send some of our captains there?
I will make sure I will follow you as fast as possible.

Thirdly, I would ask you to allow me to abandon my infantry. Our infantry isn't that powerful and experienced and it really slows me down. The infantry I abandoned can be used to sack the northern settlements. This way I wil be able to scout the area and clear the path for you.

Last but not least, I want to welcome Boiocalus to our council!

[Ibn-Khaldun]

I second Edict 3.1

[Ibn-Khaldun]

Duva asks something from his servant and then says..

The position of Treasurer is still open! Is there really no one who is interested from this office?

(OOC: The Council Session will be open for another 16 hours until we get a Treasurer. If no one wants it then I'll take another term in the office.)

[Lord of Lent]

I would love to. But until my saving problems are solved, I'd rather not accept the office of Treasurer. I'm sorry.

[The Celtic Viking]

Boiocalus steps forth.

"Thank you, Maroboduus. I am very pleased to be here."

Boiocalus bows his head.

"Now, if you don't mind, I have been doing some thinking. I do not mean to speak out of hand, nor do I wish to denigrate the worth of our captains, but I am still a little worried about them leading our armies. I think I have an idea that might put my mind at... well, if not at ease, then at least too preoccupied to worry. What I'm asking is that I might be allowed to stand in and command one army, when there is no proper general to command it. Visimar knows my worth, and I am sure he can vouch for my reliability and honesty.

I am asking that someone who are in a position to do so propose a rule change to allow this."

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

OOC: To clarify, the rule change I'm asking someone to propose is one that would allow me to command one captain-led stack for as long as it is led by a captain, or until I am removed from that charge in one way or another.
