Surrender of the Pirates
Upon learning that Rome had sent not only a great host but also under the command of the legendary Africanus, the Pirate lords, rather than trying to make a futile resistance, approach his vessel under a white flag and surrender to Cassius.

It was a poorly kept secret that the senators and equites of Rome actually benefited from these pirates, who purchased many of their slaves from them to work on their plantations. Many of them accompanying Africanus advise him to make a symbolic example of some the most dreadful pirates and have the rest quietly return to business as usual, in return they and the pirates will donate to Rome 25 talents. Others, mainly the lower and middle class soldiers clamor for the pirates to be ruined and their lands seized for the glory of Rome. Cilicia and the islands is however a rather poor and unmanageable land and some senators question if we need yet another province.

Effect:
Africanus chooses to take the 25 talents in war spoils or 10 and CILICIA

Argentus Cassius Africanus (Balanced)
(5 Legions +4 veterans+ 3 command)=21 strength
Pirates (Direct Charge)
3 armies =3 strength
Battle Roll: 16+18=34
Result: Crushing Victory


Roman Casualties
None

Pirate Casualties
Total
Argentus Cassius Africanus gains 1 influence and 1 popularity
Argentus Cassius Africanus gains a Veteran Legion, Legio XII
Romans love victory, -1 Unrest
(see choice for war spoils/land gain)


Sicyon Campaign

Philip had been frustrating the romans with his extremely active feints, fortifications of passes, delaying sieges and general trickery. Into this comes the Archon Phylax of Aetolia, who suggests rather than trying to make war upon macedon, instead attack the peloponesse. This is a rather dubious endeavor, and it becomes evident that it is motivated more by aetolian rivalry with the Achaeans than anything else but Paullus eventually agrees out of exasperation and appeasement of his allies. The plan to take Sicyon by amphibious landing was daring and required secrecy and luck, both of which were lost.

First a squall hit the fleet crossing the Gulf of Corinth scattering the roman-aetolian forces across the north coast of Achaea. Then, rather than assembling in a central location to continue the attack the aetolians began looting villages in the vicinity like the pirates they were regarded to be by their fellow Hellenes. The smoke from these "activities" drew the attention of the Achaeans who rapidly mobilized a force of Cretan archers and heavy cavalry and made a devastating attack upon the aetolian vanguard who fled to their ships. Legio Classicus moved to reinforce but were outnumbered and in the sand on the beach getting shot by deadly volleys fell in mass. The allied fleet set sail back to Corcyra, a complete failure.


Lucius Aemilius Paullus (Flanking)
(1 Legions +7 Veterans+2 Aetolians+5 command)=22 strength
Philip V (Balanced)
10 Armies + 6 command =16 strength
Battle Roll: 14
Result: Lesser Disaster

Roman Casualties
Legio IX Classicus
2 Aetolian Armies

Macedonian Casualties
Few

Lucius Aemilius Paullus loses 2 popularity for losing 3 armies
Legio IX Classicus is reformed

Argentus Cassius Africanus accept the pirates offer, they can live in peace... for now. take 25 talents as spoils and sign a peace treaty with the pirates.
Legio XII Africanus will lead rome into more victories URAAAAAAAAAA

Furthermore, I consider that NWE must be destroyed

Battle of Massilia


Publius Acilius (Direct Charge)
(6 massilians +3 Legions+ 4 veterans+6 command)=23 strength
Teutobod (Balanced)
18 armies =18 strength
Battle Roll: 14+5=19
Result: Decisive Victory

Acilius, seemingly unfazed by the enemy exhorted his men to form up and engage them and to not retreat, to smash their center.
Falling upon them without mercy, they cast their pila (the Roman throwing spears) to good effect at the charging the germanics were caught unready still performing their heathen rituals. The legionaries then drew their swords and advanced downhill in formation. Nearly all of the attacking Ambrones were killed. Losses on the Roman side were very low.
Many of the barbarians were more eager to safeguard their significant plunder many instead quit the field. Their invasion failed, but not completely beaten, for the Germanics are a numerous and warlike race and tales of the wealth to the south will attract more in time perhaps...

Roman Casualties
Few

Germanic Casualties
Heavy


Publius Acilius 8 influence and 8 popularity for his victory
Lucius Aemilius Paullus gains a Veteran Legion, Legio VII Germanica
Germanic War becomes an inactive war


Battle of Morgantia

Servius Quinctius Trogus
(2 provincial legions + 4 auxila + 1 legion +3 command)=10 strength
Tryphon
7 armies =7 strength
Battle Roll: 12+3=15
Result: Disaster

Having defeated the landholders in one victory, Salvius (Tryphon) turned to besiege the city of Morgantia, which drew Trogus towards his position with a large force through the forested central mountains. The slaves ingenuously drove a herd of cattle down the path into the roman army and after being disorganized attacked with fury born from a lifetime of terrible oppression.

The slave army had also grown far...far larger than estimates tens of thousands slammed against their lines and cut down the entire roman army leaving none alive. After this disaster roman authority collapses and the slaves now rampage across the land killing masters and becoming an army of utter anarchy. They also seize the sicilian fleet which will soon become a base of more piracy...


Roman Casualties
Total

Slave Casualties
Few

Servius Quinctius Trogus is killed
Sicily is lost and looted to being undeveloped
Slaves gain 2 armies + the 2 remaining aux who add 1 more army + the 5 auxilliary fleets
+1 unrest


Battle of Contosolia

The roman army confronts the invading Lusitani on the border near Contosolia. There a ferocious melee begins, between largely roman allied tribes and the lusitanians. Popillus shouts orders but does not contribute much. The strength of roman forces in open field battles leads them eventually to victory by discipline, if anything else. The cheiftan of the foe, Punicius is slain causing the rest to rout.
A brave warrior leads a fighting retreat preventing more losses, he is named Viriathus and he will probably not amount to much...

Marcus Popillius (Flanking)
(2 provincial legions + 1 auxila + 1 legion + 2 veterans + 1 command)=9 strength
Punicius (Flanking)
6 armies =6 strength
Battle Roll: 12+3=15
Result: Victory


Roman Casualties
1 auxilia,1 legion,Legio VIII Augusta

Lusitani Casualties
Equivalent

Marcus Popillius gains 3 influence and 2 popularity
Lusitani War becomes inactive

Troad Campaign
The campaign against Pergamon ends up being little more than raids across the hellespont. It seems the Macedonian-thracian forces are content enough with keeping the romans occupied in Asia.

Sextus Sulpicius (Direct Charge)
(11 Pergamene Armies + 2 Legions +5 veterans+ 3 command)=26 strength
Seuthes (Balanced)
16 Armies +6 command =22 strength
Battle Roll: 9+4=13
Result: Stalemate

Roman Casualties
Few

Thracian Casualties
Few

Sextus Sulpicius gains a veteran Legion, Legio XIII Vulpus
