    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    Because I've used Caesar/César everywhere since I read the first of the Emperor books a few years ago. Caesar is king!

    Victor means "the conqueror" in Latin. Ya'll recognize it from RTW

    Thanks! I was considering changing my name next time the option turned up - something slightly more humorous to tie in with my most recent TW game (M:TW VI), but I don't think that's necessary now.

    Cool Re: Naming convention.

    mine comes from my 3 best friends, whose first initials are d, a, and c. I was going to do CAD, but decided not to. I did it twice because i wanted to, why, you wanna start something?

    well...

    I usually just use Drake simply because i like latin and Draconius is latin for a standard bearer, who carried a dragon standard , of the late Roman empire (classical one) and i anglicized it. I choses tiberius because i believe that he is probably the most underaprreciated of the Julio-Claudian emperors (first five emperors). also it is a common ancient latin name.
    "Something can be done, by careful analysis, to sort out truth from propaganda and legend. But this is where the real difficulties begin, since each student inevitably selects, constitutes criteria, according to his own unconscious assumptions, social, ethical or political. Moral conditioning, in the widest sense, plays a far greater part in the matter than most people- especially the historians themselves-ever realize."
