What you're saying here is "unless the rules say we can't break the rules, we can break the rules". That is ridiculous.

Again, there is nothign which says that edicst cannot contradict rules.


Calling me names now, are you? That's... great. No, seriously, just stop that. It does no good.

As for the rest, I suggest you read what I said once more, because you'd then perhaps note that I haven't accused you of breaking any rule.

actually you have

*Yawn*

The historic Romans' laws are completely irrelevant here. The game's rules are the ones we are obliged to follow, and if you want them to be more according to the historic laws, then you must make Charter Amendments first, and they must then be seconded and be voted for by the senate.

THE SPIRIT of the game is the most important. The spirit of this game is a roman republic, therefore we should act like it in spirit. The Roman Senate was a democracy with first true Law. What I have advised Mooks to do, acts within the law and withing the spirit of the game. If you seriously want this game to be rigid and static, by all means, everybody declare that this is not allowed and i'll go find myself another game.
