Well, linking to the view-only file on Google Doc seems to be "okay" according to the rules.

A few things:

Slaves make up 10% of the Empire? Slave revolt plz.

Also, the Scots colonizing N. America will make for some interesting dev diaries
 
There are still 8 seats in the Senate left!
 
So the Session is about 21 Senators who grew up in this rebellious, heretical, plague-infested mess and three cranky old men can actually remember a time when the Imperium wasn't a rebellious, heretical, yaddayadda and are probably two steps from insanity, if they aren't already.

Nothing can possibly go wrong!

3 tough* cranky old men, we survived the plague but you young whipper-snappers don't know respect! Back in my day, the whole Senate was filled with old men! O the times have changed indeed...

I expect a lot of PTSD, ego, and scars in this session. I wonder if it would be appropriate for someone to have a mental breakdown in the heat of the debate.

I'd say it's mandatory given the circumstances :p
 
"Back in my day, the athanatoi would arrest you and break your leg just for coming to a meeting!"
Coming to a BLUE meeting, let us not forget this. Good, loyal Reds and Whites need not fear such trifles. Unless they plot a coup, of course, in which case, well...

Heresy is an illness, and purification by fire is the only cure
 
Peasant's army can only tick up while at peace, correct? The solution is simple, then! The xenoi would never expect us to attack with no morale, money, discipline, or manpower!

Edit: Or prestige, legitimacy, stability, monarch points, advisors, navy, control the capital...

Genius!!!

This is the kind of wisdom that the Emperor needs the senate for, who else could come up with a plan of such brilliance.

Now if we could only persuade all our enemies to attack at once maybe they would all kill each other over who gets to have the Imperium.

I thought I had said in the email that Alexios was a Blue Deme? He's not counted as one in the list above..

If I do have to wait until the session to declare, can I at least attend the blue demes meeting?
 
I have been reading this thread with great enjoyment ever since it began, and with the opportunity to play a (German) Senator now, I would very much like to participate. However, I am currently spending a semester abroad in China, where Google is blocked by the Great Firewall. Is there any way to join the Senate without Google access?
