				So starting off in the Non-Adult until we discuss what we each want from the game. <br><br>When it started it was with me and Desan, following the story of men who might have survived or escaped the massacre in the Teutoburg forest. <br><br>If some want to have a few run in with native women or return to Roman wives, I am very open to that. <br><br>My personal limit, I will not dong any male/male scenes, even if homosexuality was very accepted back in the day. <br><br><br>Any new people who wish to join in on the discussion, feel free to join.

				Lost legions..doesn't the time period center around when the germanic tribes began invading europe? Or where there just rebellions, Ill have to check up on that.<br><br>Anyways<br><br>My ideal character would probably be a recruit, new and clean. Once he see's the horror's of the legions being annihilated, probably be best for him to travel with either another recruit or with a veteran, if there will be more veterans.

				I think it's interesting to start after the defeat. No one came back but nothing can be said on when and where a small group of disbanded soldiers died. And there were survivors, at least from the accounts I read.<br><br>The battle is the battle at Teutoburg. You can read about it at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Teutoburg_Forest. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Teutoburg_Forest.) This places us in 9 AC, under Octavianus Augustus.<br><br>To sketch the story, we could start by running away, fighting with some German scouts, then finding by chance a Roman Villa (a farm essentially - not too likely to find one there..) where we could play a last stand - organizing the defense from storming German troops.<br><br>.. I was reading while I typed and I found this:<br><br>"One fort (or possibly city), Aliso, fended off the Germanic tribes for many weeks, perhaps a few months, before the garrison, which included survivors of the Teutoburg Forest, successfully broke out under their commander Lucius Caeditius and reached the Rhine."

				Or we could start out on an en-masse Roman-Germanic struggle, in which the Romans lose, and when you rout, it's usually every man for themselves, except the veterans often try to rally the younger soldiers together. Oooh, I don't mind being a veteran now.

				How attached are people to keeping it historical accurate (I can bend it for a good story)<br><br>IN history the banners were lost, which made it such an overwhelming defeat. SO much that those legions were NEVER replaced/refilled. If I am correct the Roman Empire much later had to nearly beg for the standards lost in that massive defeat.

				Hey, <br><br>as you have seen I've added a bit of movement. It's up to the next posters to decide the size of the band that is attacking us. Any other player can decide to be in sight and join this day skirmish.<br><br>As for German tactics, I quote from Tacitus:<br><br>"Swords they rarely use, or the larger spear. They carry javelins or, in their own language, framms, pointed with a piece of iron short and narrow, but so sharp and manageable, that with the same weapon they can fight at a distance or hand to hand, just as need requires. Nay, the horsemen also are content with a shield and a javelin. The foot throw likewise weapons missive, each particular is armed with many, and hurls them a mighty space, all naked or only wearing a light cassock. <br>.....<br>In arraying their army, they divide the whole into distinct battalions formed sharp in front. To recoil in battle, provided you return again to the attack, passes with them rather for policy than fear."<br><br>Good guerrilla tactics :-)

				Yea I am shifting the game into the evening/night time as the Romans huddle up to a make shift camp.<br><br>No fire or lights, just darkness.<br><br>Germanic warriors approach, covered in soot and mud to appear black, their approach would not be seen until their eyes stared directly in your face. Like Federico, said, these guys are using guerrilla tactics, hit and runs, using the darkness and forest to their advantage.<br><br>So posters feel free to describe your fellow Romans to die to surprise and sneak attacks throughout the night.

The wall zigzagged so that the Germans on top of it could attack the Romans from two angles. They could stand on the wall, or rush out through gaps in it to attack the Roman flank, and then run back behind it for safety.” Concentrations of artifacts were found in front of the wall, suggesting that the Romans had tried to scale it. The dearth of objects behind it testifies to their failure to do so.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br>from http://www.smithsonianmag.com/history-archaeology/ambush.html?c=y&amp;page=4 (http://www.smithsonianmag.com/history-archaeology/ambush.html?c=y&amp;page=4)<br><br>.. the part that says "..the dearth of objects.." gave me a shiver.

				Welcome to the game Country, we won't kill you since, we follow a unmentioned "no god modding" rule for the game.

				Aiden - thanks for the welcome.&nbsp; You are aware that I am a total newbie to E, so I will undoubtedly step on some toes.&nbsp; I hope I'm not too much a klutz - I'm a virgin at rp so please be gentle but do let me know if I step out of line.&nbsp; Without discipline I'll never get it right, and I always learn a lesson better if I do it wrong first time up.<br><br>I have followed the OOC so do sense that I may have a short part, or will need to fade out.&nbsp; When I was following the story, I found that there was the opportunity to jump in as a barbarian.&nbsp; <br><br>Now, does DayLilly recognize that as a young woman (probably 20) without a man to catch the odd wild boar, her life expectancy in the village may be seriously reduced, unless she can woo another to accept her and her child into his household?&nbsp; Perhaps she already has plans.

				CountryACT,<br><br>I have sent you a message regarding your godmodding.&nbsp; In my RP experience (over a decade), what you just did...without talking to me as Eadric was someone I made up...is bad form.<br><br>Also, I am very aware of Basina's normal life expectancy if she is a widow (I have a degree in medieval history).&nbsp; She is not expected to stay in the village for long.&nbsp; Germanic society was such that she would have been assimilated into either Alaric's household after he married her sister, or assimilated into Eadric's brother's household if he had one.&nbsp; Such was the nature of Germanic Celtic culture.&nbsp; Provided the Romans would be straggling into her village, and the Romans tended to either slaughter or capture the women of villages...the outcome is easy to see.<br><br>I would appreciate that, if you are going to play a Celt, that you write your own character, and not just randomly grab one made up by someone else.&nbsp; Call it stealing, plagiarizing, godmodding, what have you, but I am very protective of my characters, and didn't appreciate the hijack as I saw it.<br><br>Thank you.

				The long and the short of the story is: the Aquilonians (look and dress like Romans) cross into Pict (Germania) territory in order to expand their empire.<br><br>The Pictish tribes unite under a single banner and massacre the Aquilonians, driving them back across the Thunder (Rhine) River.<br><br>All the fighting takes place in the dark forests.&nbsp; The Picts are the masters of their element, and the fight is very one-sided.<br><br>I'm sure Howard had this battle in mind when he wrote the story.<br><br>
