With this, Ajax speaks up again.
“In any case gentlemen, we must decide on a course of action now. As captain I’ve the final say, but I’d like to hear your final counsel.”
>How exciting, the first military council of the quest! Here’s how they work: in all cases someone (normally on the basis of status in the hierarchy of nobles) will be in overall command. That man will generally have to listen to the majority suggestion of his council of war, although he is not required to by anything other than custom. Lesches Note: This vote will close at 9pm EST tomorrow night.
>You, when a voting member, can choose to support an action- this may convince your friends and allies to take your side just because it’s yours. You will also have the option to try and convince others to take your side after choosing a stance. Choose wisely…
>Pollux has the right of it about ramming a target of opportunity- support his proposal to initiate combat with the pirates. (Pollux and Andocides favor this approach while Teukros disapproves. Castor's stance is uncertain.)
>You still think that your suggestion of a boarding operation is the best way to initiate hostilities. (Pollux approves, Andocides disapproves, and you don't know about Castor or Teukros.)
>Castor may be right about turning around to avoid the fight in the name of your less-able compatriots; you’ll support him. (Castor favors this, Pollux and Andocides likely do not, and you don't know about Teukros.)
>Abstain: you have no firm opinion on the right course at sea, which is not your expertise.
