EDIT: I have amended the meeting to replace Aulus Gabinius and have instead inserted Gaius Cato and Rabirius Postumus, both triumvirate partisans at the time, into the meeting.
Freaking awesome TL! Your situational writing skills are great!
Hmmm, I'd maybe change that Gaius Cato, or add his nomen in and always refer to him by such + cognomen. As it stands, I can see how somebody without sound knowledge of this time period and Roman naming conventions could get hopelessly confused.
He was just Gaius Cato.
EDIT: Also, thanks for the praise.
Can't wait for the next update!
Need any help with something?
In time, in time.Amazing update Slyfox. Onto the brawl in Gaul.
Well now a new wild card is being thrown into the mix.Fascinating update, just in general this is an amazing TL. The PODs are all ones I have been wanting to read about since I last looked into the period. Julia and child alive, Publius Crassus alive, Clodius alive and Milo dead. Those are truly amazing PODs.
I find it very interesting that Pompeius is being alienated from the senate so much, IOTL he seemed to have this wierd reverence for the institution that stopped him several times from pulling a Sulla/Marius/Ceasar on the place, so him turning against the senate is highly interesting. I cannot wait to see what is happening in Gaul and look forward to seeing how the political shifts in Rome affect Ceasar. It looks increasingly like Pompeius and Caesar are going to be fighting on the same side when everything falls apart, with Crassus perhaps siding with Caesar due to his past service and the familial history, everything I have heard of the man indicate that he was a staunch supporter of Caesar and could easily take Marcus Antonius' place as right hand man.
