If you say so, I think the Gallic numbers have taken quite a hit since, they were forced off their land and forced to fight with the germans for theirs.

Whoops, I feel ashamed of myself. I thought there might be early Viking tribes up in the north along with some local trading ships or something. I knew the famous age of the Vikings wasn't until 1000AD. I am really sorry about mis-labeling your guys though. I badly need to keep track of my shtuffs. Thanks for reading my shtuffs and keeping me honest though. I hope you enjoy how sociopathic my guy is though. I haven't yet begun to backstab! mwhahahaha.

I just looked up the Vikings. All they had at the time was a kayak. Whoops again. I guess I hired German boaters who claim to go to Britain. Oh well.

Edit: Oh ya, good move on your part Valerian Empire. Now you don't have to buy my food. Now, I need to figure out how to make you buy something other than food from me... I suppose the Germans aren't exactly brimming with food themselves though. Either way, you got wine and hoes.

Yes, But I'm pretty sure that some Gallic or Germanic Tribe is gonna want to capitalize on the inevitable defeat of the Barbarians and want to be citizens and are willing to serve in his army.

Moved off of their land? I was assuming the Romans just kind of subjugated the Gauls and ruled them as non-citizens. Either way, I'll still have a numbers advantage.

Let's not forget "Conrad"!

Que overly excessive sparkles popular with the ladies.

Has anyone read "My immortal"? If not, I urge you to. That fanfiction will change the way you think about the human race.

Afraid? Why would he take 2 green Legions into a Savage place like Iberia? Sounds like a commander that knows what needs to be done.

Well, yea some stayed and bent the knee to the Romans and are on their way to becoming completely Romanized, and the ones that didn't want to bend the knee fled north just like the Romans did.

I wonder if we can include the high priest some time. I kept wondering if there were any corrupt deals my characters could do with him. I think he doesn't have much to do. My character probably needs a wife by now if he hopes to continue the line. Maybe he can marry a noble priestess of Venus.

Just North, Some tribes continued into Britain, and some stayed in germania. or moved into Iberia, trying to escape the Romans who were killing anything that refused to bend the knee.

Well I mean if they fled north my numbers would have swelled with refugees. Hooray for multi-generational grudges!

So far:

Tibus the Younger ( or whatever his name ) is going rogue.

Our merchants are selling food to the Germans.

It is taking a long time to get everyone in the military meeting.

Unless I'm mistaken, Germans and Gauls weren't on the best of terms and when they run north trying to find new lands to settle, I DOUBT you would welcome your rivals with open arms.

Germania is East though. Belgea is sort of the cross between German and Gaulish culture, although they're Celts just like the Gauls.
