seleucid help

[Seleucus I]

I have a game going as the selucid empire, and though I started out with pezoi, I seem to be unable to train anymore. Is this normal or just a problem with my computer?

What do you mean by that phrase? Iirc in vanilla rtrpe there are seleucid bronze shields, silver shields and gold shields. And they also have some aor pezoi units in their starting armies, especially in Asia Minor I think.

Pezoi are only available to the Seleucids as mercs, IIRC.

I believe the unit you are looking for is named "aor macedon phalanx" in the EDU. According to the EDB, Seleucia can recruit (and retrain) it with a level 3 Auxilia in provinces with the hidden resource aor_mace. That is the Macedonia AOR, which should correspond with Macedon's starting position, plus or minus a few provinces (I'd guess everything except Corinth).

Thank you very much; this is most helpful.
