Description: RoR optional house rules

I haven't done the extensive collation of optional rules that I've done
for interpetations and clarifications.  Not yet, anyway.  But here are
a couple that seemed popular on the net last year.
 
* Decide the temporary consulship randomly.
 
* Senators lose popularity for dooing badly in a war.  Lose 1
popularity per 2 legions lost (rounding up) in a disaster, 1 popularity
per 3 legions lost (rounding up) in a standoff or stalemate, and 1
popularity per 3 legions lost (rounding down) in a victory.  Loss of
fleets has no effect.  The Master Of Horse is unaffected.
 
* A rebel may keep spoils of war from any war that he defeats,
including wars defeated in the turn that he rebels.
 
* A senator may veto any motion to disband veteran legions that are
loyal to him.
 
* The Gabinian Law may also be played in the Revolution phase of any
turn in which a pirates war has been active.
 
And here is one to ensure that the players get a chance in the Early
Republic:
 
* Ignore all Manpower Shortages (or No Recruitment!) on the first turn
of the Early Republic.
 
Dave.

_Only_ from wars he defeated in the turn that he rebelled, surely.
