Passive Senate?

[Каие]

Hi everyone,


I was just thinking about how the senate just sits around with its 6 legions relaxing in Rome. Is there any way to make them more active in defending italy e.g. helping against hannibal and defendingagainst gaul. In Rome vanilla the other family members on harder dificulties brought armies to helpyou so did the senate.

Can this problem be solved by having a higher difficulty or can i change a file somewhere?

Defending your borders is your job.

Defending your borders is your job.

when i played as carthage i attacked capua and the senate sent aid to them to help get rid of me.

Yeah, I have thought about that more than once. As Gaul sends stack after full stack at my poor beleaguered northern border and my economy is barely sputtering, I wonder what the heck is the Senate doing? lol

But Garnier is absolutely correct, what fun would be it if those gold chevron Senate legions started marching north and assisted with Gaul? Defending is your job, even though it gets really rough at times.

Just think about how fun it is going to be to get to fight those Senate legions during the civil war!

Technically they're not my borders since everything the republic does is for the Senate and People of Rome (SPQR) so 'my' borders are their borders and if they want to keep those damn borders they'll have to help out. They tell me to take settlements and blockade ports and they just sit back and drink tea.

Anyway i was messingabout in descr_strat and i got them to come up as far as genua, 3 of their stacks but they still don't do anything.
