Senate missions

[Commodus]

Reading these forums I realized that the senate is giving other missions like make faction X protectorate, obtain military access, etc. All I've gotten so far (and I'm into my 2nd imperial campaign) is blockade port and take city. The first campaign I played M/M now playing VH/H. Anyone else have a similar problem?

I have played four imperial campaigns, and so far I have gotten blockade port, take city and get trade agreement missions. And the hated suicide mission.I think maybie you would get more and more advanced missions if you made sure you completed all given senate missions.

I am completing almost all senate missions in my current game, still all I get is blockade port and take city...

[Lord of the morning]

Strange one could think they would trust you with morea advanced missions once you have prooved that your up to it. But fear not, they will get you the suicide mission once they realize you can kill wipe them out in a few turns. But for the other missions, I havent gotten the protectorate mission, and for that I am glad I have never been able to make any nation, no matter how small and weak they have been and how powerfull and glorios my empire have been.

My last Senate mission to blockade Corinth, was a complete nightmare, I had a fleet close to the port but an allied Brutti fleet was sitting on the port so I couldn't blockade it.... GGrrrr.

I just looked at the descr_senate.txt file in the data folder of RTW. There is a lot of different types of missions described there that I've never seen: assasinate, give city, get trade rights, get alliance, etc.. It is kind of annoying as I think these would make the game more interesting and perhaps a bit more challenging. I'm about halfway through (have 25 provinces) with my Brutii campaign (VH/H) and all I've seen is blockade port and take city. Will the other missions really come later in the game or have I come across some rare bug?? So lets hear it, what missions have you been given?

It depends on your standing among the senators.

If the Senate likes you they give you easy missions, if they dont (my case) they send you to blockade a port in Ireland and give you 3 turns to get there, and give you other impossible missions.

BTW, if you accomplish the impossible missions they probably hate you even more, so.... Ye be warned.

In my case I have the following missions:
blockade port
Take City
Get trade rights with...
Ally with...
and the always present... get out of X land!!!

I'm at the maximum of people loyalty (how do you say plebe in english?) and i'm wondering when they will get my suicide mission! What if I do that? Do I win a prize or something like that?

I'm still playing my first campaign and recieved the "commit suicide" mission. I naturally declined, but was curious as to what would happen if I followed the Senates instructions and had my faction leader commit suicide? Would they just tell the successor to kill himself as well?

I got the "give city" mission once.

Playing as Julii I bribed a city away from my allies the Brutii and the senate gave me a mission to give it back.

Funnily enough, they wouldn't take it.
