Massilia 7
Agrigentum 3
Rome 5

8.1 Description
Each Strategy Card has two primary elements, a number between 1 and 3 in the upper left corner (called the Operation
Number) and an event. The operation number is used to activate generals or place PC markers. The event is only available if
the operation number is not used. A ship symbol in the upper right corner (on Ops 3s and campaign cards) indicates the card
can be used for Sea Movement.

I think I have to re-do as I used a 2 OPS not a 3....
