Roman Centuriate Assembly 206 BCE

The year is 206 BCE, and the Roman Republic stands at a crossroads. As the Second Punic War rages on, the Senate and the people of Rome must decide their next steps in a conflict that has defined an era. The Battle of Ilipa has delivered a crushing blow to Carthage’s influence in Hispania, yet Hannibal still roams the Italian countryside, and his brother Hasdrubal marches from the north, threatening to reignite the war in full force. Meanwhile, within Rome itself, political intrigue runs rampant as the Centuriate Assembly prepares to elect two new consuls. Bribery, corruption, and backroom deals threaten to shape the election just as much as military strategy and public favor.

In The Roman Centuriate Assembly: 206 BCE, delegates will step into the sandals of Rome’s political elite, military officers, and ambitious senators, each with their own vision for the Republic’s future. Should Rome take the fight to Carthage itself, or focus on defense and consolidation? Will young military prodigy Scipio Africanus rise to power despite his unorthodox methods, or will conservative voices push back against rapid expansion? As the election unfolds, the decisions made in this assembly will shape the fate of the Republic for generations to come.

War, power, and legacy—this committee will test the limits of political maneuvering, military ambition, and statesmanship. The future of Rome rests in your hands.
