The Will of the Senate - out of character thread

[econ21]

Reading the notes on Roman Leadership, in the Senate library, I realise there is an in-game office of Consul, so referring to the incumbent player as Consul may be confusing. I propose we switch back to my original terminology of "First Consul" (there are, afterall, potentially two Consuls but we can only have one incumbent player at a time).

I've also been wondering what to do about the titles of Faction Leader and Faction Heir - Marcus Camillus renames them Princeps Senatus and Future Princeps Senatus - ie Senate leader and future Senate leader. They are titles that come with valuable bonuses, but I don't want us to mess about with them unduly - lots of disinherited Senators will not be good for Rome; also we can't change the Leader easily.

So, I propose that when the Faction Leader dies, we have a Senate vote on who should be the new Faction Heir and not change that decision unless there are extreme circumstances (e.g. impeachment). We are stuck with Quintus as Leader and I propose we keep Publius Laevinus as heir, being the second oldest character with better bonuses than his juniors. When Quintus dies, we'll vote on who should be the next Princeps Senatus, after Publius Laevinus.

I have not read the leadership notes carefully, but my impression is that they automate a lot of the assignment of other titles and the intention was that titles not be traded. If that is true, I would like to keep them non-tradable as Marcus intended them to be.
