The whole concept of generals like a /got/ general was specifically created to not shit up the board with hundreds of threads about the same show us nonredditors don't care about.
And all of the threads outside the general are just shitposts trying to be epic and hilarious anyway. Start cleaning up the fucking board before the last few valuable posters leave to 8gag

When I was a newfag, I defended our board. As an oldfag, I shall not abandon it. I give sincere thanks to OP, who has presented me with the most promising meme imaginable. I address you directly, OP. Please listen as if you were normal and intelligent, and not an autistic, porn-addled wreck/ You are certainly not without accomplishments. It is a rare man who can boast of becoming a NEET before even coming of age. You have brought upon us Reddit, 9GAG, and cancer. You are /tv/'s Daenerys Targaryen.

Because in order to uphold the democracy of the Senate other must fall so that citizens like yourself may speak.

It is with shame that I speak these words in contempt of your derision of those who sacrificed themselves for the city. We should all know better than to disregard the posts of fellow anons in such a way. Are we not of the patrician class my fellow senators?

Should we not therefore show the other threads the way it is to be done and conduct ourselves with civility and sophistication?

According the the Hellenic/Roman interpretation, all gods all over the world are real and most are just different versions of the same god, for example they said Odin was Mercury/Hermes because of the hat and stick, they said Jesus was Dionysus, etc. Of course, there were many other interpretations and they also now and then found a "new" god they didn't now and adopted it, like Isis from the Egyptian mythology or Sol Invictus from the Persians (also, the Greeks used to identify Isis with Hera and Aphrodite, so you can see there wasn't a single interpretation). A very popular temple and shrines were the ones for the "unknown" gods, a way of covering all your bases.

Anyway, there is literally a massive number of gods, everybody used to "praise" different ones and different versions at that, the average Roman only praised for his family gods and certain specific gods for different matters. The problem with Christians and Jews, besides they believing there was only one god, is that they refused to take part in the adoration of certain gods like Jupiter Capitalinus, Saturn or Mars, which was more an issue of public duty and civil responsibility than a religious thing; you had to praise Jupiter, if not he will destroy our fucking city.

Imaging being a "tolerant" guy, you don't mind the Christians or Jews, and then they tell you they wont sacrifice to avoid the destruction of Roma because thats just a "myth" or something. Some of them also refused to serve in the army or hail the Emperors as gods.

Mortal mother, became a god. I remember reading once Jesus was also described as being Apollo's son. Like I said, there wasn't a single canon, both Greeks and Romans had different interpretations of the gods they met.

Look at the Germanic gods, Odin and Thor, identified as Mercury and Jupiter respectively

>hat
>stick
>wanders everywhere
>must be Mercury

>big guy
>strong
>thunderbolt
>must be Jupiter

I don't think thats much of the problem, except usually the Romans wrote down the Roman name of the gods of the new places they visited, so we don't know the "local" names of the gods of different cultures.

The only thing the Romans truly loathed was druidism. Tacitus talks about how the Roman army marched on the island of Mona (Anglesey) off the coast of Wales, which was the Woodstock for druids. They massacred a shit load of them. All that stopped from a full scale purge was Boudicca massacring a bunch of Romans on the other side of the country at the same time, forcing them to retreat back to Londonium.

Rewatched this recently, and fuck man, it's still so good. Characters, sets and writing are all so on point. I think I liked Pullo and Vorenus' bromance even more this time around.
Although things do move at too brisk a pace near the end and it's still a shame that they couldn't do battles properly.

Can you imagine a Rome series 7 where Vorenus and Pullo are teleporting back and forth between Syria and Britain helping to write the bible and Pullo fucks Boudicca, while the writers began pandering to the audience by having Octavia train in swordfighting and join the legions as a Legioness

It wasn't as hip with the kids unfortunately. Although maybe it was better for it to end it on fairly good terms rather than have it be dragged through too many seasons.
>>
>>87104561

This is pretty much exactly what was going to happen

The Palestine storyline with Herod was introduced because Pullo was going to end up deployed in Jerusalem in the later seasons where he would be the soldier who spears Jesus on the cross, despite the timeline meaning he'd be well into his nineties by then

Vorenus and Pullo were comfy to watch, but in truth they were easily the weakest part of the show. All the worst plots/contrivances centre around them, and it definitely would have gotten worse as it went on. Octavia was a total qt but her plots were close behind 2bh.

It would have been even better if the show had committed more to making the politics the full focus, because pretty much all the best scenes came from that.

They were already pushing it with stuff like Vorenus' kids somehow not aging over 20 years.

This. Vorenus and Pullo served a really good purpose on the show - they were the lens which the audience was shown the life and world of the average Roman plebeian, which has never really been done well before or since. Octavia and all her scenes were the weakest part of Rome imo

I unironically enjoyed Timon's plot in S2. It fizzled out, but the buildup scenes and character stuff was fun. Atia I agree, she was a great supporting character in other plots but her own ones were meh.

>>87105061
Not saying cut them, but cut back the time they get. And cut the dumb shit like letting Pompey go, the scene where Caesar pardons them he practically looks in the camera and says he doesn't want to kill main characters.
>>
>this show died for Game of Normies
Why
>>
>>87105133
Uh, you don't get to bring Jews.
>>
>>87105061
And funnily enough, Octavia's best scenes are the sex related ones. First when Octavian fucks her knowing full well she's trying to trick him and later when she gets her tits out when fucking Agrippa. Minus points for gross doggy posturing for Pompey and nasty lesbian scenes with the old hag though.
>>
>>87091100
Okay Shlomo
>>
>>87105170
Those parts were certainly the most egregious. It almost came off as Forest Gump with extra plot armor.
Anyway, aside from that I thought their plots were mostly well handled sans all the drama with his children in S2 post-slavery.
>>
>>87105430
The Avantine gangs thing was alright, but would definitely improve without the kids drama. Maybe have the 'common' characters die and get replaced regularly as the politics develop.
>>
HE WILL COME NOT FROM THE SOUTH NOR THE EAST. The mercenaries in the north report that he has forged alliances with the tribes of the Po Valley. He intends to circumnavigate Massalia and march his army--
>>
>>87105266
to be fair the Octavian scene was only enjoyable exactly because of him being a glorious motherfucker

well that's one of the problems: the various females around that era were not particularly involved with anything (other than Brutus' wife)
like Atia is a completely OC character

I don't know about that, supposedly a lot of Roman statesmen and emperors were very much influenced or straight up manipulated/murdered by their wives and mothers, so it's not like there isn't potential there.
>>
>>87103955
Why is it that Posca was the only character in the series that could pass as a Roman? Is it because he isn't just another Anglo with a Roman role?

more!
>>
>>87106017
there is potential however most of the roman women (Atia included mind you, she even died not to long after Caesar) of the people on the show weren't all that involved

sure there was Cleopatra and later on Livia but aside from that it was mostly OC

I don't know why you find that weird when even in the first season Vorenus and Pullo found both the stolen eagle and Octavian, were the cause for the fall of the Republic, survived a shipwreck which then made them stumble into Pompeii and then Pullo seeding Cleopatra's bastard. I'd love to see more Asterix &Obelix-like adventures featuring Vorenus and Pullo.

how about Asterix & Obelix meet Vorenus and Pullo?
they lived around the same time given that Asterix takes place between Caesar's conquest of Gaul and his murder

One of my favorite scenes is still the most the most polite assassination in history feat. Titus Pullo.
Makes me smile every time.
>>
>>87104244
>And you Cassius?!
>>
>>87106400
Considering that Vorenus and Pullo are from a series that is based on realism and the Asterix series are much more comical then that it impossible. I wouldn't be surprised if they drew inspiration from Asterix&Obelix for Vorenus and Pullo though.
