Proposal: Sicilia Offensive
Author: Marcus Livius
Sponsor: Marcus Livius

Background:


Senators I come to you today with grave news, after extensive scouting of enemy positions in Sicilia I do not believe that it is possible to retake the island with the resources I have been given. I therefore propose the following:


Proposal:


All warships from our Greek sochii as well as the remaining ships from the Illyrian rebel fleet are moved to Tarentum and are placed under my command.

The sum of 50,000d is lent by the senate to the province of Sicilia (in exile) for the purpose of special operations against Hirtian forces. This sum will be repaid using the Sicilian budget and/or exceptional Sicilian taxes once Roman rule is restored.

I ask that this proposal be put up for vote as soon as possible so the offensive can begin.

Galerius rose to ask a question “ Senator Livius I applaud your preparation for battle and Will fully support this proposal. I merely ask if you intend to use this fleet to engage the rebels in a naval battle or just as an escort for your army across to sicilia?”

The consul spoke. "Livius you have imperium within that province. As military leader I grant you command of the fleet. Additionally the treasury will give you your loan on the condition that it be paid back before your term ends. Go now and attend your business. Do not forget that entering our city will require putting down your command."
