Pre marian late soldiers (not in FAQ)

[Josean138]

I am currently around year 260 BC or so. When do I get the late hastati, principe and trarii soldiers?

[Hithran]

The Polybian Reforms happen due to a change in equiptment and tactics that were adopted or adapted due to wars with Carthage and Celts.

-At least year 242
-Hold 2 of these cities (Segesta, Mediolanum, Patavium, Bononia)
-Hold 2 of these cities (Lilibeo, Messana, Syracuse)
OR
-Wait until 210BC
(You get the new units only after upgrading your MICs.)

From the FAQ.

Yeah...that's definitely in the FAQ.

No big deal, not everyone knows what the Polybian Reform involves.
