I was finnishing up my scipii campaign when my economy collapesed. So I decied to turn into my testing stage.

I decided to give all of my cities to the Senate. I kept Sparta as my capitol because it is out of the way and makes good money. It was near the end of the game and I had a nearly full stack army in almost every town so Sparta was losing 9 . I gave the senate every city I had to see what they would do. It was quite fun having every single soldier in my empire attacking the nearest non-roman group, enemy, rebel, ally, ANYTHING. It was quite fun. Expanded rapidly, sacked every city and then gave it to the senate. I am on a quest to destroy every non-roman faction. I have no money at all.

As for the senate. It took them six turns to build a single unit but on that sixth turn, every settlement that I had given them origonaly had one unit built.

I just started this today and I will post more results in the following days.

One question though. If I give the Senate 50 settlements, will I lose the game?

I just "finished" today. Every single settlement is in Roman hands. My only city is Tara and my treasury is around -9,384,587.
