Praetorian legion

[superdud]

Maybe I was mistaken but in my greek campaign I swore I ran into legions marked as praetorian. I've now started my roman campaign and have yet to be able to recruit them? Was I imagining them? I'm about 110+ turns into the game and have numbered legions. If they do exist, is there a secret to making them recruitable?

You have to build Casta Praetorium in Rome

You have to build Casta Praetorium in Rome

When does that come available?

I think that first you have to build an imperial palace in Rome..

[Naked fanatic]

Yep. Build an Imperial Palace and then continue building the barracks. Casta Praetorium is level 6 or 7 barracks.

Cool thx for the help. For those that don't know... you have to also 1st build the highest level farm. It then shows the barracks to be built.

[Naked fanatic]

Im sorry, I forgot. You dont need farm in order to build barracks, in RSII

[Irishguy]

no... but you need some other buildings though... and the second praetorian legion is the coolest at least I think so...

I might point out that it's technically wrong to refer to them as a legion, because, well, they weren't. They were just "The Praetorian Guard" and organised into cohorts of 1,000 men, and there were 9 (later 10) of them, so referring to them as a legion irks me. If that's what they're called in RS1, then RS1 was wrong.

c'mon rory, dont take it personally when someone calls them a legion most of us get our history from hollywood you know, so were not all well versed in how the roman army was organized

[rory o'kane]

Well, now you know.
