That's not what he said, nor is that enough for an emergency session either.

I can try, but I cannot promise any success. Roman names have me beaten so far.

I think you could for Manius Claudius, I've checked for its possibility, so far he's the only guy named "manius" in the game.
and so far there has been nothing in the FAQ and rules which define a Consul's ability to propose CAs and Edicts; which means taking Manius Claudius' rank as Legatus, he can't propose any CA's yet (unless I quickly fight some battles and win.....

)

meh :(

All I want, is that those laws will bear my name. Can't be hard to understand now is it :)

and I remember seeing some concern from the previous page about some veteran players afraid of losing their current ranks and reputation. I would refine my comment/suggested improvements on Mini's rank change suggestion on how it would be implemented (if it is) and transit from the current state to the new state.
But I can't now because I'm finishing my homework and am excited to play Empire Total War
oh yes I just bought the game today, a few hours ago just as the shopkeeper has yet to key in its price after placing it on the shelves.

hehe I have got it on pre-order on amazon.uk

So it wil ltake a few more days for it to get here in Belgium. Not that I am so excited to play it. Demo was aweful, and the whole gunpowder warfare aint my things.

As to the reforms and their transit, as I already told bean: a few of the higher ranking players atm, will receive corresponding ranks, meaning they will be able to get themselves elected praetor/consul right away.

The reason also why I wanted it in emergancy session is the following:
it will take us atleast another week to reach the next normal session.

Then we need to approve the reforms.

then it will take another 2 weeks to reach a next session where we can hold elections?

In one thing this game is historically correct: the inertion of the senate :)

**everyone** · 03-03-2009, 13:18

well, to start by quoting you

I would like to see the brilliant minds who conceived these laws

he has been here, or one of them, I don't know how it started, but you can ask TinCow or one of the previous guys in charge of WotS (and older massive PBM)

the current senate thing meeting is also rather based off WotS, and WotS is "Will of the Senate", which as you can infer from "senate", is a Roman RPG.

and these two weeks can be watiable, and Manius Claudius does not have any IC reason to call an emergency congressional session. (unless by chance, the Carthaginians cross the straits of Messena)

**mini** · 03-03-2009, 13:36

my sentence was: I would like to see these brilliant men rewarded.

Meaning that I want to reward players who make up laws.

I dont want to 'see' them :p

I understand what your saying, but what if someone votes against a law just because of the name? Doesnt want to give the person basically a free advertisement even though its a good law?
