    Default Praetorian legion

    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

    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.

    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.
