Chuckius rebelled agaisnt Rome or Rome rebelled against Chuckius?

Good question. I think that... the second option...

both! :eek:

Anyways those Romans have no end to thier creative names...Fartacus anyone? :p

That name is banned, as he raised a rebellion which used a quite devastanting and nauseating weapon of mass destruction.

ROFL offended by that letter indeed ! Always an excellent source of laughs , Kurt ! Keep it up :D

Dunno why the letter was so offensive, by my throat... Those barbarians...
 
"My uncle Marcus Porcius Cato always used to say: "Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam" I never cared much what the Old Porky said, because quite frankly he was most boring old fart who has ever lived. By Jove, we were happy when he finally kicked the bucket, because if he had said one more word about some dusty old geezers who had been dead for centuries or about how much he hated everything fun, I would have killed him myself. And no I don't have anything to do with that bucket next to the stairs. Really, I don't. And if we must destroy cities can't we do it closer to home? There's no point of going to Africa just to burn down some city, although I have heard that local brothels are nice. Maybe it's not that bad idea after all, to conquer those Nubian princesses. Anyway I heard from Old Porky that back in ye olden days even dogs could conquer Carthago, so it shouldn't be too difficult."

Prologue to Olaus Petrus Cato's "The Glorious History of the Punic Wars or how I visited in every brothel of Africa and all I got was this lousy gonorrhea".
 
Great AAR! :D I just read the whole thing and couldn't stop laughing. Very good work you've done. I certainly expect more from the Nieblus family and their deeds within the Roman Republic :)
 
Chapter X
The Bride of Chukius
or

D'oh!

When Secvndvs saw the forces and names arrayed against them, he trembled. When the Legions loyal to Chuckius saw the armies gathered against them, they felt a bit uneasy.

However, when Chuckius saw all that, he just farted and said:

-So what?

To make short a long story, just the Cornelius sided with Chuckius, and they did just because they got the wrong road direction, as it was stated by the patriarch of the Cornelius clan:

-Cacat! (1)

However, Chuckius had grabbed his balls and he wasn't going to let him go. In the end, it proved a good decision. To grab Cornelius's balls, otherwise he would have flew away.

The first stages of the war were dissapointing to both sides. Strong in central Italy and Africa but weak elsewhere, Chuckius sent a brief messages to all his Legions and fleets.

-CQD (2) PS: BP (3).

Well... the questors got the idea, but they... were... how to say it nicely? They got the wrong way. The three legions loyal to Chuckius which were in North Italy, as they got the message, began to march to join hands (or hand with claws, whatever...) with Chuckius. On paper, it was a good idea. The problem was the way they choose to go to Rome. Indeed, All Roads Lead To Rome and all that, but some roads lead more directly than the rest.

Questor Cotta decided to go right to Rome through Etruria, and he did it, winning the province on the way. Questor Pictor decided to do the same, but, for some unknown reason, his way had a slight detour, and he ended in Barcino, Hispania. That caused one of the most quoted Latin sentences, when a bewildered Chuckius shouted at the top of his lungs.

-Whatius the Fuckius?!?!?!?!

cotta.jpg

Chuckius: -Eat that, rebel scum!
Cotta: -Erm... Chuckius, we are the rebels...
Chuckius: -No! We are the Champions!
Cotta: -Erm...
Chuckius: Do you see this sword? Do you want to see it closer?
Cotta: -No, thank you very much indeed.
Chuckius: Wise boy.​

It must said that, while on his time on Barcino, there was a good happening. As Pictor's men got surrounded, a Helvetian volunteer called Johannius Gamperius formed what he called a Footballis Clubis, the Barcelona. Centuries later, a Lustianic called Mourinhius would had some hard times with Gamperius' creation.

Then Chuckius decided to go a bit beyond, and proclaimed himself dictator, winning a bit more of dissent on the way.

Did that end the whole joke of the civil war?

Not at all.

Hardly had Chuckius become dictator, he knew about the fate of his legions deployed in Gaul. Under Drusus and Balbus, they moved to Rome, but, as Pictor, through Barcino. Thus the Hispania loyal to Chuckius began to grown while the Dictator began to feel unpleasently outnumbered at Rome.

Thus he decided to make a risky movement. Knowing that the bulk of the enemy legions were in the north, Chuckius decided to strike south against the few troops that Lentulus had managed to gather there, annhilating them, but gaining some dozens of volunteers on the process.

Then Pictus, who had managed to free all Hispania, put it under the lead of one of his most trusted questors, a men called Franciscus Francus, and moved to Rome, just to met his fate there.

-What a sob... -Chuckius thought-. At least the survivors are still on friendly lands... I guess... who cares...

Then, an awful moment stroke.

-Chuckius, Chukius!

-Tell me, little padaw... er... tell me, Secvndvs...

-The augurs have seen the future! If you win this war, there will be some day someone called Berlusconni leading Rome! And it will be ...

The rest of Secvndvs words are lost to history, but the result is well known...

(1) Sh*t!
(2) Come Quicly or Die.
(3) Bring Pizzas.

A detour! :rofl: If that ain't the understatement of the century I don't know it anymore. :D
 
ROFL Bring Pizzas . I loved the letters , Kurt . They're some of my favourite parts XD The flow between the history narrative and then the letters is genius ! I love it !
 
Haha, Mourinhius, Footballis Clubis, I love the football references! Great chapter :D

Distances are relative... Or was it time?

Classical :rofl:

When you got on Chuckius' bad side (as it is not a matter of if), always bring pizza when you meet again...and he might let you live a bit longer :D

The problem is not to be on Chuckius's bad side. The problem is to know wether he has a good side or not.

ROFL Bring Pizzas . I loved the letters , Kurt . They're some of my favourite parts XD The flow between the history narrative and then the letters is genius ! I love it !

Inspirational moments, I must say. The silly in me...

Haha, Mourinhius, Footballis Clubis, I love the football references! Great chapter :D

José es too "special one" to be dropped out, for Goodness' sake... :D
 
Chapter XI
Finnis Canis
or

Not me!

-Berlusconni?!?!?!

-Erm... yes...

-Cacat! (1) What will be next? To blame me for Pino D'Angio ? Come on!

After a few moment of intense anger, Chuckius had an idea...

-Okius, Secvndvs... Call in the rebels, I'll make a deal with them...

Thus the Noble Roman citizens of all classes were called to the Forum, where Chukius addressed them like that:

"Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your pizzas.

I come to free Rome, not to conquer, because the evil that men do lives after them and the good is oft interred with their bones. Thus, bad soup could made of those bones.

<Sounds of many Romans bellies expressing his disgust>

So let it be with Chuckius, because I'm gone. The noble Brutus Sonius Fuckius hath told you Chuckius is ambitious: If this were so,I'm leaving Rome, so no problem at all and Brutus is still a Sonius Fuckius, nothwistanding.

So come I to speak in Chuckius's name."

"Psst...."

"What, little Secvndvs?"

"You're Chuckius, so you can't speak in your own name but..."

"Shut the fuckius up, Secvndvs".

"As I was saying..., I was my friend, faithful and just to me --- but Brutus says I am ambitious and Brutus is an honorable man. But he was also a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy..."

"Psst...."

"What, little Secvndvs?"

"You're quoting the wrong... oh, never mind, you're going to mess it all, after all".

"Indeed..."

"As I was saying,

"To be, or not to be: that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, or to take arms against a sea of troubles, and by opposing... erm... indeed, I've missed the quotes... well, anyway..."

"Yet Brutus says I am ambitious and Brutus is an honorable man. Come here, little Brutus..."

Brutus comes near to Chuckius, who suddenly takes out his gladius and cuts Brutus head.

"Eat my shorts, you Brutus, an honorable behaded man".

"Ok, let's come to bussinnes. You all did love me once, not without cause. What cause makes you you then, to make war to me now? Yesterday my word might have stood against the world; now I'm stuffed and forgotten. And none so poor to do me reverence.

So, all in all, get stuffed, because I'm gone!"

Thus Chuckius turned around and send Rome packing.

What cames next is too horrible to be told, as there are plenty of history books dealing with it. It will suffice to say how a terrible dictator called Enewaldus rose from the Chaos to put himself as First Fine of Rome and then departed to the North, to conquer a places called Finland, and nothing else was heard from him; how a young senator called Trekaddictus tried to defend Rome for the Huns and got raped by Attila's horse; how, finally, in the 20th century, Il Duce Benito Comagoosie allied with der Führer Adolf Haardrade and got both blasted when invaded Spain.

All this pain just to end having Berlusconni as prime minister of Italy.

As it was foretold.

And what happened with Chuckius and his furry family?

It is said that Columbus took a furry animal with him when he sail to discover America.

And that it was a unnamed Furry Animal, and not Fletcher Christian who lead the mutiny of the Bounty.

But, alàs, nothing can be proved.

Or is it.

Anyway, this is


THE END

(1) Sh*t!

 
Thus endeth an AAR that I had not idea how to go on, so, instead of making the usual mess of it, hereby I put an end to it, more or less common sensical (ha! I doubt it!), and call it a day.

Thank you for following it and for your charming comments. Never a silly writer had such a wonderful audience.

Woof! from Peti, too, and pizzas for all.

It's indeed better to end big than to slowly die out. Well done and it was a fun read :D
 
haha , a hilarious ending as always , Kurt . i loved the adaptation and the shameless switch between Caesar and Hamlet XD that made me chuckle to no end ! Even in death , you always manage to pull it off XD
 
Benito comagoosie!! Anyone but him :p

Nah, I'll be a great speach maker then.

Anyways, a pity that this had to end, I enjoyed it while it lasted :)

As I told, I was running out of steam. Too many AARs.

It's indeed better to end big than to slowly die out. Well done and it was a fun read :D

Thanks a lot!

haha , a hilarious ending as always , Kurt . i loved the adaptation and the shameless switch between Caesar and Hamlet XD that made me chuckle to no end ! Even in death , you always manage to pull it off XD

I had to made up my mind, because the original ending included Caesar, Hamlet, Titus Andronicus and, as a special cameo... oh shit! I forgot Pope Canonizedius!!!! Well, too evident, I guess.
