Assassination Conspiracy - 44 BC

Playable during an assassination attempt to prevent the use of all bodyguard cards during the attempt. Assassin cards can be played to add to the roll. If successful, each of the assassinating faction's senators loses Popularity and Influence equal to half (FRU) of the assassinated senator's Popularity. A caught assassin is still killed but the faction leader is immune to an assassination prosecution. This card does not in itself add to the assassination roll. Can only be played by the faction making the attempt.
