March to Amphipolis (CYOAH!3)

An army is quickly assembled, numbering about 2,500, and marched across the extent of Greece, under the command of Brasidas. An army under the command of Eucles guardes the city, however, the Athenians are greatly outnumbered.

Although the quick march against the city allowed the Spartans to arrive well ahead of any Athenian reinforcements, Athens has sent out an army under Thucydides to aid Eucles, and if the city does not fall quickly the Spartans will face a much more difficult battle. Although the Athenians in the city have no intention of surrendering, perhaps the city could be turned against the Athenians if we promise to allow its citizens to go in safety, and to retain their property, which would be less financially advantageous for us.


 * Offer the deal with the citizens in order to quickly take the city.
 * We will take the city by force.
