They were part of the republic yeah, but they still had tribunes during the reign of the emperors i mean look at Claudius's invasion of Britain he had tribunes then aswell(didnt he?), looks good mate
im guessing for your millitary aspect you will go legate,tribune,1st centurion etc but i cant see that really working in an alliance due to the amount of players(i couldnt see it working in a sub 100 member)
Good charter mate always good to see a Roman themed alliance.
Can you please the geek in me and tell me your Gov positions just so i can compare to Rome(purely for no reason other than i like Rome)
If he were to agree to set terms i dont see why an alliance wouldnt offer a probation membership followed by membership.
The first thing hed have to agree to do is not post on the owf until told he can do
Basically what everyone is saying mate is join an alliance that is already well known and get yourself a bit of experience before trying to make one or whatever
