The first campaign I played on the brilliant new EB1.1 was Rome. I had only played a few years with Rome when a captain had proved himself worthy of adoption into the family of Cnaeus Cornelius Scipio Asina. This captain was named Cnaeus Licinus Crassus, and I must say, I adopted him based purely on his name, and sent him straight to Rome.

A few years later, i received a message about a certain Cneaus Cornelius Scipio. This puzzled me as I didn't think I had anyone by that name in my family. On closer inspection, it was my adopted captain, Cnaeus Licinius Crassus! A trait he had "Adopted into Gens Cornelia" right below another trait "Gens Licinia".

Is this a new thing for EB1.1? Or have I just completely missed this, and it's been in since the start?
