It looks like based on the screenshot that the Co-consul gives the Millitary leadership and the consul the rest. I'm guessing they won't swap each month, but we'll have to see.

I would say the game take the best one to make the country one. So in screenshot the Co-consul is the best military but the Consul is best in all remaining 3.
I do hope that the number of area where the Co-consul is better has an impact on the loyalty of him.

Also, I doubt there will be any swap : the Co-consul have a loyalty stat displayed. Switching would make that stat useless.

I wonder if a possible solution is to allow the Consuls to switch every year, with a election still kept at 5 years? This would make it more immersive and a lot less annoying than making it every month.

Each Consul will also have an agenda, similar to that in Stellaris. This agenda would be similar to character ambitions, and could range from conquering a province to passing a law or economy law (assuming if sometime in the future the devs make the Senate vote on economy laws) Accomplishing the agenda would cause the Consuls faction become more popular and vice versa. If the consuls agenda are conflicting, this would cause their loyalty to decrease.

And maybe, to prevent total deadlock, there should be a negotiate button, where the other consul may be willing to drop their agenda/prevent a veto - but a price, whether it be passing other laws/bribes

Just my over the moon thoughts at the fact that there are 2 consuls in the game :)

AUC is the default, and has been for some time, so I think you've got the wrong information. Based on what was said here, BCE/CE needs to be modded in (though it's apparently not too difficult).

You misunderstood my comment. AUC is the main calendar but BCE/CE is also displayed.

I think we both have. From what I can tell, BCE/CE is only displayed in the tooltip when you hover over the date. It's not normally displayed on the top bar unless you mod it that way, and seems like a weird reason to not buy a game. ;p
