I just got this and wanted to show it off, but didn't think it deserved the front page:

To be fair, it isn't entirely authentic. It is currently 155BC. I wanted to see the Marian reforms, so I changed the their date to 200BC and the Imperial to 160BC. I also had to give the guy a super bus when I first noticed he was nearly Emperor material.
Also this happened the previous year:

You're thinking, "So what?" This guy was awesome! When he came of age, Carthage had just been beaten and Rome had Italy, Greece, Iberia's east coast, all islands on the Mare Internum, and a tiny foothold in AsiaMinor. By his death (most of his life being Consul and Faction Leader) Rome had its historic greatest extent in AD117, minus Dacia. He was my Caesar (conquer of Gaul part) and my Marian (reformer). And best of all, he was benevolent. He had all kinds of traits about being kind, benevolent, and morally restricted, dispite being filthy rich. He was about 80 when he died. EDIT: Oh yeah, this guy's last name is Pavo. And the espiring emperor is Nvmerivs Pavo as well. Cool coincidence. Though about a third of my family members are Pavos.
He conquered Gaul, reformed the military, and oversaw Rome's undisputed rise to sole superpower.
I was thinking about making a one entry AAR about his life, I just wish I had taken more pictures of his conquest of Gaul.
