Good idea, I'll see what can be done :~)

Glaucus, lots of fun ! We will surely miss your input on the senate floor.

For your amusement and historical value :
Centurion
Walls of Rome

Finally, I went to the trouble to find out if there really is a bug in VH combat in RTW that makes it very easy. It turns out there actually is such a bug, but only in the custom battles. So VH battles in the the campaign are really VH. It have not been able to determine if this bug in custom battles was patched out.

I'm pretty sure it was.

Yes, because a Sughidian Warriors unit can beat a Plumbtarii unit easily on medium, but also lose easily against it on VH.

EDIT: Oh adn give me an avatar come on, so I can discuss you in the 'in-character' thread..

You can post as an anon Senator in the in-character thread - some of the Upper House still have to do that.

I will give you an avatar just as soon as TinCow updates the bios in the Senate library. I think a young new general has been spawned, although apparently he has virtually no vices or virtues yet.

There's also the possibility of taking over Publius Pansa from Glaucus, although you'd have to wait until after Wednesday for him.

BTW, if anyone else wants to make a bid for an avatar (e.g. someone with an agent who wants a general or an Upper House member without one), now is the time. I normally assign them by "seniority" but where players have not voted or participated much, I don't feel obliged to follow that too strictly. I suspect, everyone should have avatars over the next 5-10 years anyway.

EDIT: Ok, I've looked at the 265 savegame and you can take Gnaeus Hordeonius, aged 21, a tribune and "in the pink".

You can have Publius Pansa on wednesday. I want to debate one more time though ;)

I'll PM with some stuff about him.

Hiya, anyone who wants to run for consul but currently without an avatar can always take mine. I believe Titus Vatinius has quite good leadership and command traits, and it looks like I won't be running for the lower house in this campaign so...

Should anyone be interested, I'm always willing to swap my character for a less military-like one.

Oh, and sorry for not being more active in the senate deliberations; I'm currently in the middle of a move and I'm trying to sell my appartment so I'm quite busy the last weeks. Still related to the move: seems like I forgot to make sure I have internet in the new house (how could I forget this

!!!) so there's a big chance I will be offline for a couple of weeks starting from the beginning of July.

NEWS UPDATE :
Some [expletive deleted][expletive deleted] hacker has wrecked the RTR site. That's soooooooo immature.

I just saw the updated library.

Excellent work, TinCow, it is much appreciated.

However, I do believe we are missing the memorial section, seeing as how young Pleminius is no longer with us.
