Yes we senators are an impatient lot and may over throw the emporer and take things it to our own hands if he does not hurry.

I will need a seal..so as I may detain his Emperorness whence I find him

[Beta]

His Emperorness is here. He humbly apologizes to the senate for the delay in playing the turn. But the deed is done. The die is cast. And there have been interesting developments. Our army is indeed much stronger, but alas, we now have more enemies.

(I need to grab a bite to eat - and then will post the results.)

Strength and Honour, my friends.

Well you heard his Highness speak

Let us prepare to commission permission to draft new Legions..Yes I say YES

[snoopy369]

Hear, Hear! Legions, to arms!

[Paddy]

All hail the Emperor

All hail the Emperor

As I return to the Senate chambers, once more a senator of Rome, I must fully support the stance of Trollius above. Indeed, the Roman Army does need you!! We are now at war with almost half the known world.

I regret (not a lot mind you. ) the diplomatic and military can of worms I have left my successor. It is a lot more complex situation that Cubious was good enough to pass to me.

Here Ye Here Ye

Let it be known we have spoken many a boastful word

We have met,convened and conversed!

Now we need to A C T!

[ChrisiusMaximus]

Senators and esteemed former and in some cases Fomer Geriatric Emporers!!


It is my pleasure to speak before you all today. The Maximus family is making preparations to host games in the capitol in celebration of their up and coming term of office.

I would like to personally wish Emporer Skrobism all the best of Roman luck in his quest for fame and glory, all Hail the Emporer and all hail Rome !!!

Friends Romans and countrymen I believe our future strategy lies in completing our campaign in Spain and the islands, then I feel we should seek peace with the Carthaginians.

Their could be real trade benefits from such a move!! I believe there craftsmen make extraordinary ivory carvings

Which Senators wife would not truly love such luxeries to adorn their banqueting table ??

It is then I firmly believe we should attack the Celts to our North these smelly people pollute the winds coming from the Alps and it is time they kneeled before Rome !!!

Think of the slaves and the concubines so close at hand my comrades it has to be said the redheaded maidens of the Celts are far more striking than the Child murdering whores of carthage !!

I know we are a Senate of many minds here and there are many views on these matters, but i truly believe i speak with the wisdom of the Gods and that our future path will be close to my predictions.

Lastly my fellow Senators I call for the investiture of a triumhpull arch to be built on one of the entrances to our great city in honour to the wise rule of the former Emporer Optimus Betamus, his superb actions in the field against the sneak attack of the Scythians were truly remarkable. many Roman lives were saved due to his quick thinking and willingness to take tough choices.

All Hail Optimus betamus!!!
