The Scipio is dead, long live the Scipio! - R:TW PBM

[Domen]

Campaign difficulty - very hard, battle difficulty - hard

Rules:

1. All battles should be played by player himself on battle map (in auto-resolved battles family members almost never die).
2. Loading game - especially after various misfortunes and failures - is forbidden (things like lost battle, death of a family member, etc.).
3. As faction heir must always be designated the oldest family member (so that no player will be able to rule for a veeery looong time).
4. After the death of a current leader, we hand over the faction to a next player (ofc. no loading in case of leader's death to prolong the reign).
5. It is forbidden to purposedly cause the death of a faction heir, just to get an opportunity of choosing someone younger for a faction heir.
6. If someone wants, they can write AARs describing their rules, if not then some short description of one's reign will be appreciated.
7. Cheats and codes such as for example toggle_fow (console in general) are of course forbidden.
8. It is forbidden to bribe armies, generals and cities of AI factions - except of Slaves & Rebels.
9. Do not surround enemy armies or agents with units to destroy them.
10. Do not sell map information/trade/alliance for over 500 gold to the AI.
11. Do not use the console in any way. We all know we can beat the SP campaign (even I, a relative newcomer to EB but a RTW veteran). This is not a competition nor is it a race. This is a SP experience shared with your fellow Romans and cannot be "won" in any way really.
