Oops!
We have a problem here.
You can't add a legion to an army in a province you don't govern.
Please redo that 4-red points part of your turn.
The place governor in Italy still succeeds, as 3 votes were needed and attained.
@Preda
Actually, we'll just assume you added the 4th legion after you became Emperor.
The results are the same.
Carry on.

Well shoot. I read the part about how Brittania and Gallia are adjacent for empire creation and assumed that was the only exception.
Obviously, I should be compensated for that lost point. Adjusted for inflation, that should come out to 10 free red points next turn!
