Turn 5 Senate Phase, First War Votes

Turn 5 Senate Phase, Second War Proposal and Votes due 6/19, Friday

Senate Phase

That having been dispensed with, Papirius rises again...

Fellow Senators, two Wars are at hand, the Illyrian pirates, and King Philip V of the Macedonians. As Senator Terentius's mathematical mind has pointed out, our choice should be to fight Philip first, and settle with the Illyrians second. I agree with Senator Terentius, and therefore the First Proposal is to raise 2 Legions & 5 Fleets. My second proposal is slightly different than Senator Terentius's proposal of how many Legions to send. I as a Senator realize the importance of keeping the Veteran Legions safe, but to the Soldiers & Leaders who have to fight the War, the Veterans are those who are needed most in Battle. Not to speak about Field Consul Cornelius who will be leading this Army against the Macedonians and a possible freak accident at Sea which some Legions may drown. So therefore, the Second Proposal is to send Field Consul Cornelius with all the Legions and all the Fleets to fight against King Philip V. May Neptune protect our Fleets and Mars protect our Legions. The voting will be the same as before with Caelestis Genus,

Arborophilia, 100%Loyalus, Coronus, and the last votes will be from Finlandia. With the Caelestis Genus votes, all are in favor for both proposals. I realize if the first proposal is not passed, we would have to re-vote on the second, but to keep this session going, I have two Proposals up for vote instead of one. I apologize if this is a break of etiquette, and if only one Proposal is able to be voted on, then we will come back to the Second Proposal if the first is passed. If there is another Proposal to be added to this session, please state the Proposal and reason for it. Thank You.

On the first proposal, to raise 2 Legions and 5 Fleets::

Caelestis Genus: 9 votes in favor

Arborophilia 10 votes in favor

100% Loyalus 12 votes in favor

Coronus: 3 votes in favor

Finlandia: 8 votes in favor

The final tally is 42 votes in favor and 0 votes against. 70 talents are spent to raise the new forces. Calpurnius gains 15 talents from the Ship Building concession, and Quinctius gains 4 talents from the Armaments concession.

On the second proposal, to send Cornelius to fight the Macedonians with all available Fleets and Legions:

Caelestis Genus: 9 votes in favor

Arborophilia 10 votes in favor

100% Loyalus 12 votes against

Coronus: 3 votes against

Finlandia: 8 votes against

The proposal fails, with 19 votes in favor and 23 votes aganst.
