[X] Keep Pushing: You are going to push deeper into the city's defenses, demoralize the enemy and kill them all. (Considered High Risk, very high risk of injury, but will cause enemy morale to suffer dramatically. Most likely will make them break and flee the battlefield.)

Well, first of all the morale was already low before we even started the battle
And this is just a guess so I may be wrong, but I am guessing that after being totally humiliated by a few dozen crazy bastards who fight with the fury and skill of Achilles and his Myrmidons, the morale is going to be significantly lower than their already poor morale...
Dammit, what did that crazy bastard do to earn a Grass Crown?
IIRC there was not any army which needed to be saved...

[X]Enemies at the Gate: You will get to the gatehouse and lock the enemy army out. If they cannot escape, they will surrender. (Considered High Risk, Low risk of injury. May cause enemy to fight to the death, if they do not break, knowing they have no escape.)

This seems to be the best option all things considered, and if we can let the rest of the army in, then all the better.

He didn't earn a Grass crown. But he has earned three civic crowns already in the fighting.
Mars is just really grumpy that at this moment, Apollo is beating him.
Just wait buddy, you will have your chance to gloat.
The wise one is already right.

Dammit, we can't let him steal Claudia her Sabaton song of Theodosia´s Battle...
He will have more than enough material for several songs after the Gallic Wars, but this one is ours.

Don't you mean our conquest of Gaul?
- Location
- Spain
So we will be the Battle Sister of Julius Caesar through all of his conquests?
That sounds pretty awesome...
But we have to rebuild our Villa first and make sure that Ion doesn´t get himself killed, so we may not be able to accompany him...

We've got another 20 years before a conquest of Gaul.

Okay time to do the rolls.
...
Welp, Mars is defiantly going to be laughing at Apollo for this shit.
Severus, you are a chad, never change, and your son is an idiot, and his buddies need more training before becoming the next in the Line of the Severin clan and being a badass.
Also, Damn... Like Damn.
Achilles will smile upon us for our badassery.
Though we should be worried about how many times those injury rolls occured.

To be fair we probably all the accolades we can get so that we can extract retribution when we arrive back home

Weird thought, but how is our record keeping going to impact modern language?
One of the examples I keep coming back to are the Continents, because while the definition of Europe had expanded from mainland Greece to include mostly everything north from the straits of Gibraltar to the Bosporus (maybe under us it'll expand a bit further to the Borystenes River?), Africa is still limited [in def.] to what's controlled by the Carthaginians and Asia as either a part of Anatolia or the entirety of the Middle East...I wonder if in the new timeline, Africa [continent] will still be called Libya or something related to Egypt?
The things that keep me up at night.

THat will depend on entirely things beyond your control, besides setting up the ball for future generations to run with.
Oh boy
