    Default It's another of Brennus' pointless yet friendly posts: "Would like to meet..."

    If you could meet one character from within the EB timeframe who would it be, what would you ask them and what would you like to do with them (please nothing smutty for anyone who posts Cleopatra and please don't just say "I would like to meet Caesar/Hannibal/Antiochus Megas, ask him why he was a and kill him etc etc").

    Thank you in advance for your contribution.

    I would meet Pyrrhus just before assassinating him. I wouldn't say anything because AFAIK Pyrrhus doesn't speak Hai (Հայերեն). It would be an honour, even though I would only see him alive for 5 minutes.

    Unfortunately not very original but…
    To go back and see Caesar get assassinated because its a part of history that’s interested me from a very young age and it would be sweet to see it for myself.

    I would make a priest tell Antiochos III to put Hannibal in command of his army, and not his fleet...

    You mean "How many people would like to meet Jesus?" of "How many people would like to meet Brennus" cos I can tell you now the second experience is an anti-climax.

    That's true but its better than my alternative title "If you could go handgliding over one city in Antiquity what would it be?"

    Just don't tell Caesar why you're there.

    I'd like to meet Plato. Just to ask him to not use dialogues to explain his ideas. All it does is leave me wanting to argue with men who have been dead for thousands of years because they never included a counter-argument that was worth a damn.
    As for hanggliding over a city; surely Knossos.

    I have to ask, why kill Pyrrhus?
    from Megas Methuselah, for some information on Greek colonies in Iberia.

    I've never killed a man and do not wish to do so ever, at all. But!, if I ever did, it would have to be a very important person. I find Pyrrhus to be one of the most important people of the EB era. If I was teleported to the Near East, I'd just head over to the royal palace and have some wine with old man Yervand. Probably marry a daughter of his and just chillax. Buy some land and start my own Armenian wine business.

    You would be killing him and a lot of Antigonids in the process. Sorry.

    Well, Pyrrhus is importent indeed... but speaking about contribution to the world and popularity, Jesus kick his asses (and everybodu elses) 10 times! As for myself, hmmm, I'd go to the day of Caesar's assassination, Kill Brutus, then receive a great reward from caesar to have protected him! Before that, though as any sweboz dedicated fan that respect himself, I'd go meet Ariovistus, have a mug of mead with him while talking about whatever under the shade of a dense forest!
