Open translation for this passage
τότε δὲ ἀποστέλλουσιν Ἀθηναίοις στρατιάν τε καὶ ἡγεμόνα Ὀτίλιον· τοῦτο γάρ οἱ τῶν ὀνομάτων ἦν τὸ ἐκδηλότατον, ἐπεὶ καλοῦνταί γε οὐ πατρόθεν οἱ Ῥωμαῖοι κατὰ ταὐτὰ Ἕλλησιν, ἀλλὰ καὶ τρία ὁπότε ὀλίγιστα καὶ ἔτι πλέονα ὀνόματα ἑκάστῳ τίθενται.
The passage has an explanatory copular clause followed by an ἐπεί clause; the final ἀλλά coordinates an elliptical contrast with τίθενται, and the numerals/adjectives have somewhat uncertain attachment.

τῷ δὲ Ὀτιλίῳ προσετέτακτο ὑπὸ Ῥωμαίων ἀπείργειν ἀπὸ Ἀθηναίων καὶ τοῦ Αἰτωλικοῦ τὸν Φιλίππου πόλεμον.
The impersonal pluperfect passive προσετέτακτο governs the articular infinitive ἀπείργειν; τῷ Ὀτιλίῳ is the dative agent/recipient, ὑπὸ Ῥωμαίων the personal passive agent, and τοῦ Αἰτωλικοῦ coordinates with ἀπὸ Ἀθηναίων as a genitive of separation or dependent ethnic designation. The final object is τὸν Φιλίππου πόλεμον, with Φιλίππου a possessive genitive.
