Have you taken all the land that Carthage has at the start of the game including the ones in Iberia and Sicily?

[DaviusMax]

Yes, my objective was to take them out, get the marius event and wait till about 180 bc before I invaded gaul with them but it never happened, I dont have to own spain do I? cause their is a really large rebel army who arent easy to beat.

[franks_tank]

I don't think so...only the carthagian provinces from the start as Gunner said...when you're not sure if you have them all you could start a new game, remove the fog, just take a look if you missed something and leave the game afterwards

I'm far away from the reforms (darn you're fast ) but I would do that...I don't think it counts as cheating

[DaviusMax]

hmm, your right, i noticed all other factions have a full map except the juli, trying now, and for some reason when i play i choose not to do anything untill the 180s, just doesnt feel right invadeing at 200 bc, ofcoarse i sacrificed alot of stuff to destroy carthago and one time my legions almost were lost at sea

it didnt work, but I noticed everyturn there is always a adoption

Hmm thats very odd as if you say Carthage should be ready to trigger the Reforms can you please give me your saved game? I know why it isnt triggering, but It doesnt match what you are saying. Send me the Saved game and I will let you know how to fix that.

Basically you cant BLITZ carthage and expect reforms, its a SLOW process.

ahh ok,

[DaviusMax]

here is my save, please help thanks

[lt1956]

Hmmmm. Looks like you GAVE yourself those Provinces. you have Everything on Automanage including Recruitment? You have Garrisons with MIXED types of units including cavalry? You have a TON of Family sitting in Capua. What were you trying to do CHEAT and get all of Carthage hoping to get Imperial Legions? You saved game makes no sense? I cant tell if you autocalcing for sure or not but something is Wrong, even though the DATE shows 172BC I wonder if the date was changed or you just clicked next each time.

Come on fess up and tell me the TRUTH about your campaign. ;-) Have you read the house rules BTW it makes for a more fun game.

[DaviusMax]

well yeah ur right, i just wanted to reform before i started playing, i hate pre marius legions, shoot me ya, so would this effect the event?

[franks_tank]

I don't have a quote but it's mentioned in several threads that cheating of any kind messes up your game and there's no shortcut to the marius reforms...you can end your game right now...if you don't like a little challenge SPQR might be the wrong choice

Hey, lt_1956 created the game for his enjoyment because thats how he wants to play it. Other people play differently to enjoy the game. Some people cheat and enjoy it. I have done so i might add. I enjoy playing cheat campaigns where its fun just get a economy going and maxed-out settlements before conquering the world. But then i like to play campaigns by strictly following the house-rules. So don't tell others to end their games and campaigns aswell as find other mods just because they enjoy playing the game differently to the way you might.

[franks_tank]

If you like that...OK...in my opinion that takes nearly 90% challenge out of the game and that's what keeps me entertained...that's why I picked this mod

Davius came in here, lied about the cheating and everything else right away and told us not to call him a cheater...I don't like those guys, that's all

[Hesus de bodemloze]

well yeah ur right, i just wanted to reform before i started playing, i hate pre marius legions, shoot me ya, so would this effect the event?

so did i now i just love them. i restarted my last 6.4 camapaign when marius reformed. you will learn to love them.

[S u l l a]

I am curius about how Marius is actually triggered. Is it linked to ceratin time as well or was it just that the guy earlier in this thread manipulated the game?

I do my campaign the "slow way" (Siciliy, Caralis, Palma, Iberia and finally Africa). This time I have not entered Greek lands for the economy boost early in the campaign, which I normally do.

[DaviusMax]

well, i i did was auto_win attacker/defender all my battles and auto manage citites to see if the event world work

[Mr. Scott]

well yeah ur right, i just wanted to reform before i started playing, i hate pre marius legions, shoot me ya, so would this effect the event?

if you really want marius legions at the beginning go into C/Program Files/the creative assembly/rome total war/data/export_descr_buildings.txt. and delete all "and marius_reforms".
and change "and not marian_reforms" to "and marian_reforms" If you have microsoft word you can do ctrl F and do replacing thing. I did it. and I love playing with imperial legions at the start!!

[cnaeus]

can someone please summerize the things you need for a reform because after taking gaul(which i really want to take with pre-marian)i would like to to take iberia and after that carthage so that i can reform and start my slow but steady march to the east.

cnaeus,

[DaviusMax]

well ok lesson learned and case closed i guess, thanks
