Why won't Marian trigger?

It's 148BC Rome controls 65 provinces all Italy has Latifunda and have won 500+ battles, version is 1.0 with BI.exe., difficulty is M/M.

Faction leader has 4 command stars (in traits +3 command), 6 management,
9 influence is a pleb and has popularis trait, he has just been made Consul and is 54 years old.
He's just taken Hbis and gained that 4th star, I end the turn and all that happens he losses the popularis trait.

What's going wrong?

In fact it's happened several times, and from what I know the reforms should trigger, in fact I've gone back several years and tried different tacks and same has happened.

Am I missing something or if not is there a "cheat" where I can get the reforms now.

At this stage I have no other characters that come close.

Did he gain the Reformator trait by any chance? In any case it seems that sometimes it will take a year or two before the game recognizes all the conditions and places the building. Personally, I prefer to just conquer the automatic trigger of 90 territories (unless that was taken out of 1.0 since I have not gotten that far as Romani yet in 1.0).

That is still an option.

Script is active.

No I've not had the reformata trait, but I'm worried I keep losing the popularis trait or is this to be expected. It would be great if the reforms kick in after 6-8 turns.

Is he Sharp Charismatic and Vigorous?

Other than that you should have all the prerequisite's to trigger the marian reforms.

Yes he is sharp, vig, chara etc.

From what I've read in forums he meets the requirements
