Marcus the Cold Hearted finally died at age 95. The drunken lout who was phlegmatic, virtous and upright but at the same time wildly extravagant an architect and superior builder is gone, his 79 year career in service to the Juli is unmatched. His presence in a city would be a 90% boost to loyalty, he cut construction costs to less than 2/3! Oldest grandson of Flavius the Brave the first faction leader, he took Carthage at age 18 with only Hastati and Equites. Then he governed there for 60 years keeping that city ridiculously happy with his love of the games, races and famous oratory. When he had built every building the republic could build, he went on a Mediterranean tour filling up the building cues of every city in Scilia, southern Italia, Greece all the way to Byzantium before returning back to find his final resting place in Cisalpine Gaul.
Before the snakes in the senate declared war on the Juli, Marcus held every senate office. While governor of Carthage the urban cohorts that he trained crushed the Scippi in North Africa and Sicily in the civil war that followed.
At some point the Great Cornholio will tire of keeping Rome under siege while he conquers the remaining few territories and building great cities in formally barbarous lands. That day will hasten now that Marcus the Cold Hearted is dead.

Cornholio!
