Read up a bit, Seems like it will be that dwarves that have been in the military for 10 years will be able to become commanders. That's the only thing that interests me cause i'm a military dwarf.
Rules are up to discussion. For one we do not need 24 military tribunes, since we do not even have enough military(I assume that military tribune is a noble position of militia commander) or even enough players 
. So 10 years, 5 years, or whatever.
The main pro-s I see in Cursus Honorum is more dynamic government(new magistrates every year), more dynamic and more active senate/council(consuls/censors add/remove senators pretty much at will within quota), easier enrollment of new players (new player immediately know what to do to begin political career - survive in the military for X years, with potentially shorter term(or higher influence gains?) for few elected tribunes)
The single con I see is that it all sounds a little bit nerdy, but as a roman republic fanboy I am definitely biased
I will have to read up on the it to make sure I understand, then give it some thought OOC, it makes a degree of sense from what I have gleaned from your description.
IC, of course, Kerod would be completely against this idea, as his goal can be pretty much summed up as trying to turn his council position into something heritable, for his family to own by right of birth. Still, he hardly has much clout to disagree.
I actually just dropped by to say I made Kerod's wiki page, and added a little history to him. I intended for it to be humorous, but I suppose my delivery may have left it a bit flat. I considered adding a line about him rewarding you handsomely for giving him the resources to contact his family's (wealthy) descendants, but I figure the "Nigerian Prince Scam" reference was a bit cheesy.
