Visit our Legions Page for an explanations on what those ranks mean.

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

There are also several Usergroups;

 

The Usergroup Admin is Triumvirate (hey we are three admins, so it fits! :P

The Usergroup Moderator is Praefectus

Regular Members are now Usergroup Plebeians

Previous Members Group "Citizens" (which gives you the ability to have your own blog on UNRV, and full access to the Gallery) is now "Equestrians"

banned members are now "Damnatio"

 

We also created a completely new Usergroup for previous "Equestrians" that contributed with articles and/or book reviews, called "Patricians" (Every month we give one roman history related book to the "Patricians" as a on going thank you for the outstanding contribution those membes have made towards UNRV.com"

 

Those Usergroups are not related to post count, need to be registered members for at least (one month to become Equestrian and three months to become Patrician) and are elected by merit only from Admins!!!

Praefectus (Mod) 2 Member

Patricians 8 Members

Plebeians 121 Members

Ought it to be principales? Anyway, Suetonius's dad was a tribunus angusticlavius, and I'm aiming for that.

 

Well then you better get posting soldier!

How does the new ranking system work? Looks to me like the civilian cursus honorum has been interspersed with military offices. It's sort of strange.

 

Yes you are quite correct.

 

The idea is... one works his way up from:

Tiro (recruit) through the enlisted ranks of the legion, before he joins the Senate and has some new opportunities, including a return to the military.

 

Is it a perfect union? Hell no it isn't, but we tried to add just a bit of variety to the equation and its a bit reflective of the anything goes era of the principate.

 

Here's an update.

 

Tiro 1

Miles 10

Imaginifer 25

Optio 50

Signifer 100

Aquilifer 150

Centurio 200

Primus Pilus 250

Tribunus Angusticlavius 300

Senator 400

Tribunus Laticlavius 500

Aedile 600

Praetor 700

Quaestor 800

Legatus Legionis 900

You'll have to make some changes - one cannot be a Senator and an Equestrian...

 

One isn't. One attains the rank of Senator (in this case) after serving as Tribunus Angusticlavius which is the last Equestrian rank in the list. Legatus Legionis is rather non-descript, does not signify class rank such as Senatorial Proconsul or Equestrian Praefectus Provincialis and could be filled by either class.

 

[edit] though by definition a Legatus Legionis was of traditional senatorial rank, but this is the principate I am trying to relate here. At any rate it's still ok at its position in the list.
