Adoption of the Thureos
Main campaignRIS Classic
Who gets it: Massalia
Strategos: Hear me, assembly of the six hundred noblest men of Massalia!
Assembly: Hear, hear!
Strategos: We are proud Massaliotes, much more elegant, intelligent and controlled than those barbaric Celts and Ligurians.
Assembly: Hear, hear!
Strategos: Yet, in order to defend ourselves, we should adopt their big, oval shield, the Thureos.
Assembly: Hear, hear!
Strategos: I have spoken.
Assembly: We agree! For Massalia!
Strategos: For Massalia!
