The largest ship was heavily armed with 120-ton merchantman, carried seventy-one passengers and crew, including the experienced commander of the fleet, Captain Newport; a highly successful privateer.

Octavian gained control over African territories therefore giving him control of the Senate (Casers Reign, pg. 10).
