    XC doesn't affect your vanilla install at all, so you really have nothing to lose by just DLing and installing it to see for yourself. And if you're dissatisfied, all you have to do is delete the shortcut and XC modfolder and you're done with it.

    As seleucid vassal in the early game, baktria starts off as a fairly standard hellenistic faction (although with easy access to a very varied AOR) and post reform it evolves into a more indo-hellenic style.

    Some units:



    Indian Guild warriors



    Indian Macemen



    Indian Elephants



    Indo-hellenic hoplites



    Baktrian infantry



    Baktrian Cavalry



    Late bodyguard



    Baktrian horse archers



    Agema hoplites

    Wow... XC has changed quite a lot since I last played it (which admittedly has been quite a while ago... maybe I should rectify that). Those Indo-Hellenic Hoplites rock.

    Question: AoR these units are or can be recruited after the reforms.

    AOR units are mostly unaffected by the reforms.

    my mistake.

    Question: Are These units AoR or Can Be Recruited after the Reforms ?

    but what you say, these units are specific of Baktria

    With the exception of the hoplites and bodyguards all other units are AOR.

    so faction's changes and reforms are still bound to roman marian reform? or some of them are having a unique way of reforming their army?

    still bound to marian reforms, in XC5 (IF we can pull that off) we'll make it so that greek will trigger them instead.

    right, it would be nice at least some of the bigger faction could have their own reform method (as seen in EB)

    well, we thought about that but since XC won't use BG scripts it's a bit more complicated.
