Should the Praetorian Guard play a buffer to the senate if you become emperor later in the campaign??

[jackwei]

I have always wondered when you become emperor should the praetorian guard be unlocked and be a buffer to the senate in terms of politics as support of them will keep senators and other families in Rome order??

Would they carry out murders of other families or senators on your behalf depending on their loyalty to you as Emperor or some can say they could be bribed and murder your emperor (Faction Leader) in Rome or even make a request for you to adopt a general to become an heir to the throne like they did when they influenced Nerva to make Trajan his heir.

For an example the conspiracy of Lucius Aelius Seianus (20 BC – October 18, AD 31) the praetorian prefect could be use as a stepping stone on how much influence the praetorian guard can have in Rome and you can decide to do something about it or not thenceforth you will be known as ... the tyrant or the savior etc lol

[Imperator of Rome]

The Praetorians were more than a buffer to the senate. Come on, armed men against a group of senators.

On 28 March 193, Pertinax was at his palace when, according to the Historia Augusta, a contingent of some three hundred soldiers of the Praetorian Guard rushed the gates[33] (two hundred according to Cassius Dio).[34] Ancient sources suggest that they had received only half their promised pay.[35] Neither the guards on duty nor the palace officials chose to resist them. Pertinax sent Laetus to meet them, but he chose to side with the insurgents instead and deserted the emperor.[36]

Although advised to flee, he then attempted to reason with them, and was almost successful before being struck down by one of the soldiers.[37] Pertinax must have been aware of the danger he faced by assuming the purple, for he refused to use imperial titles for either his wife or son,[38] thus protecting them from the aftermath of his own assassination.

After the murder of Pertinax (28 March 193), the Praetorian assassins announced that the throne was to be sold to the man who would pay the highest price.
