Samnites (Rise of the Republic) Via Strategematum Tier 3

Ordained by Ver Sacrum

The rite of ‘Ver sacrum’ requires strict observance of rules and dates, commanding that sacrifices are made dutifully by all those prescribed to carry them out. In the absence of a supervising priest, the most pious among us take charge, being most careful to follow the sacred instructions to the letter lest the opposite effect to the one intended is achieved. Of the many examples of a successful Ver sacrum, the Picentes followed a woodpecker as it migrated down to Asculum from the coast; the Hirpini – also of Samnite blood, like us – followed a wolf from the Sabine Hills. Both groups are now thriving.
