Stop kidding yourself. You know you're going to wind up doing a new site. After all, it's been, what, 2 years since you finished Alexander?
Anyway, it might also be possible to come at the Gracchi from the side, as it were, through Scipio Africanus Minor. He was their adoptive uncle and brother-in-law, gave Gaius a boost on the cursus honorum, opposed their policies in general without being an extreme conservative, and might have been on the verge of proposing a compromise when he died.
Their mother Cornelia Africana is also worth at least her own article on a Gracchi page. Fascinating woman who turned down a proposal by the Ptolemy of her day.
