the 'drum thing' spears it pretty cleanly through the thorax (good cast there, Piercingathorax!) but aside from that Caesar wouldn't have said it anyway. He never did any kind of war demagoguery in his career, but that was only because he never had to. If he'd seen a sesterce profit in it, he'd have been off like a shot. War was HONOURABLE back then, remember? There isn't a peacenik in all of recorded Roman history. MAYBE somebody would have taken on Alcibiades or one of the other Athenian krazos in those terms, but only if he was looking for a good cup of hemlock after the debate.<br>
