Turn 9, Forum and Population Phases

Turn 9 Senate Phase, Consul Nominations due 10/4, Monday

Forum Phase

Persuasion Attempts

Junius, Sulpicius, and Aemilius all attempt to persuade Sempronius. Junius spends 20 talents, Sulpicius spends 10 talents, and Aemilus spends 0.

Junius: 13 Influence + 2 Oratory + 20 talents – 6 Loyalty = 29 (9 maximum) Coronus spends 23 talents to oppose, bringing the number down to 6. DR = 9, attempt fails.

Sulpicius and Aemilius abandon their attempts.

Knight Attraction

Caelestis Genus: Furius spends 5 talents (dr = 4 + 5), success.

Finlandia: Aemilius spends 0 talents (dr = 3), fails.

Arborophilia: Julius spends 0 talents (dr = 4), fails.

Coronus: Terentius spends 3 talents (dr = 5 + 3), success.

100% Loyalus: Calpurnius spends 5 talents (dr = 1 + 5), success.

Faction Leadership Changes

None

Games

Flamininus spends 18 talents on a Gladiator Gala, reducing unrest by 3 points, and gaining 3 popularity.

Valerius spends 13 talents on a Blood Fest, gaining 2 popularity (unrest is already 0)

Sixth Initiative

Furius bids 7 talents on the sixth initiative and wins it.

Initiative DR = 7, random event TDR = 10, Evil Omens. Since there is no Pontifex Maximus, the state pays the 20 talents.

Furius spends 5 talents to attract a knight (dr = 3 + 5 – 1), success.

Population Phase

Rome Consul Junius speaks.

"Pontifex Maximus Papirius came to me last week warning me of the Evil Omen coming to Rome. Saying Pluto will unleash a Plague to claim his One Tenth of Citizens. During this past week Pontifex Papirius has been before Mars pleading against this Plague, on his last request, he asked to take his life to satisfy Pluto's claim, but Pluto wouldn't be satisfied with one. I want to honor the three Senators and other Roman Citizens who gave their life for Rome... Senator Papirus, Senator Q. Fabius Maximus Verrucosus Conctator, and Senator Claudius. May they and the rest of the Citizens hear the Celebration we gave to Honor their Sacrifice."

"People of Rome, Peace is at hand, The Barbarians have paid in blood for their insolence to invade our Provinces, The Cilician Pirate Ships have been sunk, their Pirate Hold has been burned, and The Jugurthine War will soon be ended. This I Promise you. Soon there will be another 1000 years of Prosperity for the People of Rome."

TDR = 5 – 1 (Unprosecuted War) – 1 (Evil Omens) + 5 (Popularity) = 8: +3 to Unrest
