Your commission

Take up a Roman commission.

  • You are a legionnaire. Bring the standard home. Escort a detached unit to Rome under your prefect's written orders. Preserve discipline, protect your comrades, and act within your grade: what you cannot order, you must request.
  • You start at Londinium in Britannia: an exposed crossing, Gallic cities, and an Alpine passage. Military supply and the loyalty of the ranks are never far from your mind. 6 named stops lie between you and Rome.
  • Rome expects you within ninety days with your standing at 45 or more, 3 duties of your office resolved, your people holding together, and your courage & excellence, training & discipline, steadfastness intact.
Details

Historical frame · Junior command. Your authority runs no further than your detachment. Choices that look like commands are requests to your superiors or actions within your orders.

Fictional roleplay in a historical setting; the emperor is alternate history. After each decision the evidence behind it is shown, and reading it is optional.
