Triarii? (recruitment modding)

[Prince of Judah]

Is it just me or does it seem strange that the only spearmen you can train take far too long to get to? By then you have already expanded (at greater difficulty because of having to fight cavalry without spearmen) and chances are you are going to start training auxiliaries. Is there a text or config i can edit to allow me to train them at the same time as hastati? If so, which file is it and in what folder can I find it?

you could always have a mod, most have areas of recruitments, and so spearmen


also arent town watch spearmen?

You can also hire mercenary spearmen- Barbarian Mercenaries in Gaul and Northern Italy and Samnite Mercenaries in Italy. Not as tough as the Triarii, but they make decent enough auxiliaries for keeping cavalry off your flanks.

Thanks guys. I got my answer solved in another post though.
