Gaining poular support?

[guineawolf]

The idea is to continue until:

1) The People love you enough to trigger a message about being powerful to consider Rome and kicking out the SPQR.

The People love a conqueror and empire builder, and I believe capturing cities is the easiest way to get their support.

OR

2) The Senate hates you enough to demand your faction leaders suicide. Say no and they'll outlaw your faction.

If either happens, you can feel free to begin the civil war.

does anyone say yes to the demand of faction leader suicide?and what is the consequense?

Hi guineawolf,

The consequences are death to your faction leader. It's not always bad though. If your faction leader is a corrupt feind who might as well not exisit, then he may be better off dead. Refusal, on the other hand, results in instant civil war! That can be very good if your not very popular and want control over Rome, but it can be terrible if your borderline defences with other Romans are very weak. Hope this helps, cheers!

BTW, adding to all the useful information that has been said, it is also a good idea to suicide useless generals who provide negative bonuses to popular happiness through their vile traits and habits. That said, it's also a good idea to keep generals that boost your popularity, alive and well so their bonuses can continue

I've found bribing the other Romans close to my Cities very effective, especially if I didn't begin the civil war through choice and I'm not well prepared.

Obviously, you'd need to be rich
