    The Senate is open for discussions!
    Turn 6

    After the last Senate session things seemed to have calmed down. Consul Askthepizzaguy held a triumph after the legions in Iberia destroyed the last free tribes there. This way ATPG SPQR gained the access to much needed gold mines. This really convinced some Populists that the Merchants know how to run the state. -2 to Populist faction

    Rumors were spread that senator Double A helped the Iberian tribes with weapons and money. The culprit behind these stories were soon discovered. It seems it was the leader of Civic faction, senator robbiecon.

    Senator Double A answered to all those rumors and accusations with a speech in the forum. It was so well written that many of the Civic faction members decided to turn against it and joined the Military faction. -2 to Civic faction

    Expensive gifts and a large sum of money from senator Diamondeye to the temple of Jupiter made some Religious faction members to think twice who to support. -2 to Religious faction

    In a dark alley behind the tavern three men met. They exchanged some words and one of them gave couple pouches to the other two. -2 to Populist faction

    Following the example of military faction senator Diamondeye made a long speech against the Religious faction. This brought some supporters to his faction. -2 to Religious faction

    But what came next shook the entire Rome...

    After senator Diamondeye had finished his speech and was on his way home some thugs blocked his way. He tried to talk himself out of this situation but the thugs did not want to listen anything. They pulled out their swords and attacked. Diamodeye's bodyguards tried to defend him but the attackers quickly managed to kill them. Knowing what will happen to him Diamondeye concealed his face with his cape. He was stabbed to death by the attackers. However, what the murderers didn't know was that they were identified by some of the people watching from the shadows. The whole Rome soon talked that senator Askthepizzaguy was behind this bloody attack.

    It seemed that the city had turned into chaos. Another senator were found dead! Senator robbiecon and his bodyguards were found behind the city walls. It seemed that they never had any chance to defend themselves. Who was behind this attack however remained a mystery.

    The Consul Diamondeye was killed. So was the second candidate, robbiecon.
    This means there is no Consul for this turn!

    The tally:
    Military: 23
    Civic: 24
    Religious: 10
    Mercantile: 29
    Populist: 14

    Players:
    ATPG - Mercantile
    slashandburn - Mercantile
    Double A - Military
    Secura - Military
    Diamondeye - Populist
    Romanic - Populist
    God Emperor - Religious
    robbiecon - Civic
    Yoyoma1910 - Civic

    Diamondeye and robbiecon, you can rejoin the game again if you wish but after this turn is over.

    You might not like it, but my actions have been the most principled out of anyone's. Why you chose to attack the civic is beyond me.

    You think we were behind the murder of Robbiecon?
    That's gullible. Then again, Merchants have never learned to look a gift horse in the mouth.

    In the game of chess you can never let your adversary see your pieces.

    I have got a plan so cunning you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel

    Some of us are above such filthy measures and deemed our fellow senators the same. A murderer, in the senate. Who would have thought...?

    How far we've come, but still we cannot prevail unless we stand together.

    I could use some assistance with this.
