Instead, let us address Iberia and Germania. As I have demonstrated earlier, with 3 border forts we could ensure that Germans never come into our lands. Not that they would, they have never expanded before in our history. Check the senate archive if you doubt me. Iberia is almost finished with Carthage at Carthago Nova, there will have to expand somewhere. I know the scribes grow tired of the many motions tabled this session, but I feel I must put forth one more, a compromise of sorts:

Motion 6.12: This house details the movement of our military forces in Gaul:
A - This house proposes that Consular Army 1 sets sail for and captures Palma, a Carthaginian island south of Massilia. (Also preventing Iberian expansion in the Med.)
B-This house Proposes that Legio III build 3 border forts and spreads her troops out between the forts, to block any enemies journying south.
C-This house Proposes Legio I reamains in southern Gaul, ready to attack Narbo should Iberia act aggresivly toward us.
Senator Publius, at first I was at a loss as to why you wanted to take Palma, but now it is very clear to me. Yes, if we are to attack the Iberian mainland, an island outpost is the perfect place to start! It is quick, efficient, and the Iberians will not have any idea. The border forts will be beneficial too, if you mean for them to built in the central alps. Please amend this motion to specify.

I second motion 6.12.
