I think it's Roma having an Academy which makes all the difference - FMs who spend their early years there get a load of education-related Traits (sometimes bad) and fill up their ancillaries quite quickly.Originally Posted by ServiliusAhala
Virtually every family member who came of age (ie whom I've had since they were 16) is a consul by the age of 50 in my game. A few of those I got later did as well. Shuffling my commanders around makes a difference too, I don't have one great general who I use again and again. Since command starts don't actually matter as much when you play your battles out, your no-star general can still beat the AI's ten-star man.
