    Default Imperial Legion Troops Please

    I've had the SPQR Mod for a few months and I absolutely love it. Only one problem is, I still don't have Imperial legion troops. My empire is still average size, I pushed about 50% north into gaul and german territory. I have a few cities with nothing left to build.

    I remember in the modless Rome Total War that imperial troops are made available when you build an imperial palace in any one of your cities. Is it still the same way? Any feedback would be nice. I want to get an idea of how much longer I am from getting these units.

    5. Carthage must be destroyed and you must own their lands for Marius Reforms to take place.

    That is from the 7.0 read-me, I just copied and pasted that now. Now if Carthage is already destroyed and you have an imperial palace, well then I have nothing for you lol.

    You need to have reforms + best barracks level in settlement that is able to recruit a legion.

    I can build those barracks before marius reforms, so if I have built them before marius reforms, when the event happens, could I train republican legions??

    You need reforms to get republicans but if you build imperial barracks before marius reforms you will get imperial legions if you build an higher ranked type of barracks you just skip the republicans.

    Thanks for all the feedback guys. This is a great community. A little off subject but this has been bugging me for a while. This video right here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd34ISKBe-Y is a video of SPQR which really got me into this mod. About 2:55 to 3:30 minutes into the video, the barbarian army sounds a war horn and they chant realistically as they rush towards the romans. I was dissapointed to realize that SPQR mod does not come with this. I commented on the video and someone said its from the lord of the rings. Can any of you guys help me out? I really want to implement the sound wave into the game to give it a little more of an exciting experience. Any feed back would be appreiciated

    cheats can still be used though can't they? - thinking of adding a "fixed" cash ammount in order to secure a foot hold - just so i can make an effective offensive into the south west (africa) - - i have 3 legions coping with the senate & 2 other legions on the defensive from the gaul.

    plus 2 more are being built to secure the carthage cities.

    those imperial troops sure would come in handy

    I am not able to help you with that but i have to say i would love to see or better hear this in the game as well, in stead of using the scream as a special ability it should get replaced by a war horn which gauls used a lot when they went in to battle.

    Here is a basic guide it tells you what to build to get the extra money. Also take a look in The SPQR Index page under the title SPQR useful members threads. There are some pretty useful guides around here if you take the time to find them.

    But if your in a fight with the senate it might be best to restart your campaign because they will suck the life out of your.

    Cheating basically means - no reforms. No reforms = no imperial troops. Have a nice day.
