UPS Maximus receives another letter from the consul.

Senators! More news from the consul!

"Senators,

I am pleased to hear of our victories in the east over the Seleucids. Slightly disappointed that one of their armies found it better to flee than fight, but such cowards will be dealt with in due time.

I am currently preparing for an expedition of my own in the west. After further assessment of the situation, I have determined that it would, in fact, be detrimental to our campaign in Afrika to allow the army led by Celeas Abderas and Mobilkar the Mad to exist for one more season. The smaller contingents surrounding him, while easily defeated one at a time with Celeas gone, would provide a much more difficult opponent if allowed to group and fought in unison with or directly following a battle with the main Carthy army.
So the plan is to strike at the carthy heart, then break the limbs as they come down one by one.

I shall send word of the expedition soon."

(OOC - Having some minor computer problems. I've solved the problem, but unforetunatly it involved wiping my entire computer, so I'm in the process of redownloading all the mods and glueing them back together. If all goes well, I'll be up and ready to go within the next 2 hours. If not, I need to try the multi-part zip.

Do not worry! This will not interfere with the flow of the game! If I can't get it up and running within the next two hours, Quintus Libo will be given the order to march, and the game will progress regardless, while I hammer out the minor details with the re-install.)
