I have just looked through The First Consul's report. Can you not see the massive Gallic army just outside our reach? As I am sure you can all see, the Carthaginian homeland is lightly defended. I am confedent that Quintus with only seven units could take Carthage from the enemy. It does, after all, only have a five unit garrison and is leader-less! I urge my fellow senators to support an attack on Carthage, it is clearly the easier and richer of our two prospect targets.
