Hail Antony!
1:05:29
- How near is Octavian?
- Very near. Over that low ridge.
1:05:33
As it grows dark, the glow from
his campfires will light up the sky.
1:05:42
Our troops must find it
attractive to watch.
1:05:46
Inviting, even.
1:05:47
Antony's legions warm themselves
at their own fires.
1:05:50
Yes.
1:05:52
I could feel the warmth as I rode by.
1:05:57
- How many legions has he?
- Twenty.
1:05:59
- And we?
- Two. The 12th and one made up...
1:06:02
Made up from what was left
of the others.
1:06:04
As I remember it, Caesar
held Alexandria with two.
1:06:12
How are they deployed? Rufio.
1:06:18
Cavalry to the left, cavalry
to the right, infantry to the center.
1:06:22
Three elephants deployed
to stamp out a fly.
1:06:28
My lords Octavian and Agrippa have
all the strategic brilliance...
1:06:32
...of two vestal virgins.
1:06:34
We can move to ground too soft for
cavalry and fight their infantry.
1:06:39
Stand? And let them stamp on us?
No. Let the elephants stand.
1:06:43
We flies will bite
and buzz and tickle.
1:06:47
At the first light of day...
1:06:49
...while Octavian's glow
still lights up the sky...
1:06:53
...we will attack.
1:06:57
By sunset, both our loyal legions
will have grown larger...
