Turn 7 Senate Phase, Censor Election and First Prosecution

Turn 7 Senate Phase, Second Prosecution due 12/11, Friday

Senate Phase

After the election of the new Pontifex Maximus Aelius speaks quietly but sternly, "I nominate Aemilius as Censor. voting order as follows:


Coronus All (4) votes "Nay" as Aemilius (aka Macedonicus) may be needed in the field later; suggest Terentius (9 INF, no military advantages) be eleced instead.

Arborophilia 7 votes against

100% Loyalus 5 votes against

Caelestis Genus 11 votes in favor

Finlandia 14 votes in favor

The nomination succeeds 25 votes to 16

Aemilius rises as the new Censor and says in a low tone:


"Too long has Flaminius been skimming off the top of tax collections he has been making for Apulia. The farmers there have been taxed to death and have begged me to lend them my ear. I have heard their complaints and it is time to end the tyranny. I call on everyone to vote to prosecute Flaminius. I nominate Flamininus as prosecutor. If he has anything to add I invite him to add the sordid details of Flaminius' excesses as tax collector in Apulia."


Voting order will be:


CORONUS:

ARBOROPHILIA:

100% Loyalus:

Caelestis Genus

Finlandia

Finlandia plays a tribune card to VETO the prosecution vote.

Aemlius rises again:


My apologies to the esteemed Flaminius. A clerical error caused his name to be entered into the prosecutorial records instead of the intended.


Instead, for our second prosecution we shall prosecute Aurelius for his dealings in Liguria with his Tax Farmer income. I will rely on the esteemed Falmininus as Prosecutor to detail the charges.
