Well, of course! Our Rome is a different animal entirely. Great guide, SwordsMaster

I don't have any strict rules, but I try to determine early on whether a general will be better at campaigning or governing/rebel-fighting, and focus their energies accordingly. I try to give everyone some combat experience, but some family members just aren't cut out for a more active life. On the other hand, I've had some generals advance rapidly in gaining command stars, through victory and defeat.
