[OOC] Legions: Rise of Rome

Well I'm still around, and I look forward to the next round of orders.

Good man.

Well, the reason I need to know who is active sooner rather than later, is because the next game turn is going to be the scene of the Second Punic War's first major engagement, involving many legions.

I intend for each legion to have their own part to play in this battle, but for that reason, I can't have an AWOL legion involved or it'll risk breaking everything.

[AmongHeroes]

I will say that I'm going to be away, and unable to post for a little over a week starting tomorrow. If you can get up new orders soon I can post before I go. If not, it's no big deal.

[Byrd Man]

I haven't really had time to post this weekend because of work but I'm still interested in the game

[Dedonus]

I placed an application for this RP here. I just need to finish my legate's origin/background.

[PhoenixWhite]

I'm still here, as well. Just my ever-silent self. I'll warn if going MIA though

[Dedonus]

I added a little to the Legate's origin. Just FYI.

Added and accepted.

I've posted the large battle. Players should read the post before theirs, before posting, in case the Roman battle plan doesn't... well, go to plan and they need to react to a changing situation.

AmongHeroes has been left out of it, owing to his absence. However he shall be kept in the game. Legions not answering the headcount have been removed to the Halls of Shame hider.

[AmongHeroes]

Hey there Lancer. Great stuff with the new orders. I know I was left out due to my coming absence, but if you have time to add in some orders for the Legio Sexta Ferrata, I can get up a reply before I leave today. If it's too much hassle, no harm done.

Edit: Disregard the earlier part. I didn't catch you in time, so I look forward to catching up with this in a little over a week. Good luck everyone!

Here!

I have the honor of getting things started? Awesome. I'll have a post up tonight

Correct!

@Feigling,

I forgot to mention, but your plan worked and your legion ambushed the Veneti King, killing him and destroying his army. Sorry to fast track your plans in such a way, and I promise it wont happen often, but the Hannibal situation presented a unique opportunity that I wanted to get all players involved in.

I thought you may have been active, so I neither accepted your legion, but nor did I relegate your legion to the Hall of Shame. You've missed the opportunity to take part in the battle, unfortunately, but you will be included in the next round of Senate orders - or the follow up battle, should the situation demand one.

In fact, in the event that Rome loses the battle, your legion may well be the rearguard as the rest of the Consular army retreats. We shall see!

[Feigling]

@LancerDancer
Thank you. I didn't know how to make tbat plan work or whether I need your permission or etc.
Sorry about the delay. We are armed and ready!

Haha, I literally just PM'd you. You can ignore the PM.

It was an interesting plan by the way, I liked the twist at the end of your post.

[So Boerd]

S'all right. Without much needed socii cavalry, we're going to get #rekt anyway.

[Feigling]

The last time I saw that particular hashtag was after a rowdy weekend in Scotland. If this fight is anything like that weekend...
Mars protect us all.

[So Boerd]

Also, we've got the worse of the consuls.

That'll be changing shortly.

I imagine so. Was referring to the battle however.

[So Boerd]

Heads up Bird, Carthaginians and Iberians are white.

[Byrd Man]

I know. I just wanted an excuse to use blackface!
