"Senators, unfortunately until we locate the remaining denari that the Hirtians had, we do not have enough money to begin construction of a fleet. I am not comfortable sending Marcus Livius or Gaius Septimius out after their province until we have a fleet that can at least escort them there. Hopefully Marcus Aemilius and I can deliver swift victories to replentish our coffers." |

"Esteemed Consul thinking back to your time on under the standard before we moved to take Capua my men had heard several rumors that the remnants of your fleet captured by the rebels was docked at Tarentum. Now that was several months ago so the gods only know if there still there or what condition there in. But it would be worth looking into. With your permission I will send some men south to try and confirm there location at once." |

"Please do Praetor, I thank you for your help. If we can pick up another fleet to send Marcus Livius and Gaius Septimius on their way that would be helpful" |

This is a subject at the front of my mind at the moment Consul thank-you for bringing it to the attention of the curia. I believe crossing the straits of Messina even considering naval inferiority is a possibility if its well timed and Fortuna is with us. However it would be almost impossible to capture Sardinia without naval superiority so was I considering asking praetor Gaius Septimius if we could join our forces to take Sicilia together and then after we are successful he could then use the vast majority of our force (and any captured ships) to capture Sardinia whilst I restore order in Sicilia. As for Tarentum I was soon going to send forces there to protect it from enemy raids(and to prepare for the assualt) so I will order my men to rebuild the fleet if possible.
