War is Hail...Caesar
Julias Caesar You scored 48 Wisdom, 69 Tactics, 52 Guts, and 43 Ruthlessness! |
Roman military and political leader. He was instrumental in the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. His conquest of Gallia Comata extended the Roman world all the way to the Atlantic Ocean, introducing Roman influence into what has become modern France, an accomplishment of which direct consequences are visible to this day. In 55 BC Caesar launched the first Roman invasion of Britain. Caesar fought and won a civil war which left him undisputed master of the Roman world, and began extensive reforms of Roman society and government. He was proclaimed dictator for life, and heavily centralized the already faltering government of the weak Republic. Caesar's friend Marcus Brutus conspired with others to assassinate Caesar in hopes of saving the Republic. The dramatic assassination on the Ides of March was the catalyst for a second set of civil wars, which marked the end of the Roman Republic and the beginning of the Roman Empire under Caesar's grand-nephew and adopted son Octavian, later known as Caesar Augustus. Caesar's military campaigns are known in detail from his own written Commentaries (Commentarii), and many details of his life are recorded by later historians such as Suetonius, Plutarch, and Cassius Dio. |

Cowboy! Thanks for the H/T!
Hey, I sent this to my buddies - wargamers/historians all - and first thing they did was complain about the incorrect spelling of Julius Caesar' name! (JuliAS? What's up with that!?)
Take care - and Way OT - I loved the picture of Jen M. She needs to get a serious bit of hardware in the photo as you suggest - but she is looking great!
