Has anyone played RTR VII recently as Dacia as I find it quite hard even on easy and why can't I recruit units like armoured spearman and other units in major regions that I capture I do construct the policy buildings to allow you to recruit them but I cant I captured singidium or whatever it's called and couldn't recruit that many of my units there plus anyone know what regions must I to get a trailer to tell me i can recruit other units such as late swordsmen and the rhompahioroi unit plus can dacians build ships i know the arverni can and spartans can havent played other factions coz i really want to complete campaign as dacia

Yes it seems is quite difficult to play with them, it will be sort out with the new patch.

Ok do you know when that patch will be out coz I like playing as Dacia but enemy troops and soldiers in mod
Can be too powerful and sometimes playing the battle you get defeat
I always get defeat if I auto resolve or I win but lose more troops

Why does everyone say the Getai are hard? They aren't - you just have to use Horse Archers to the max, use your armoured spearmen to absorb charges and use your falxmen to surround the sides of the enemy while flank charging with Sarmatians. You have to learn that you have to strike the enemy in a full blown charge and break them as soon as possible. Don't bother with the warbands - stick to falxmen and armoured spearmen. Also - use peltasti; in this mod they are actually worth a damn, as their missiles cause morale damage and exhaustion at whoever they're shooting at.

...then again, that doesn't sound easy, does it...

The AI copes, half the time at least. But if it is hard to conquer the world as the Getai, that's probably a good thing. Now we just need to make it that way for the other factions... But I do take exception to the fact that they have to fight the Norici, often in the 260s and 250s. I hope to change that, at least. Also, the situation with the Greek colonies will change a bit, as it is a bit unrealistic (and annoying) atm. Their finances will only change if I can ascertain that there is really something wrong with them.

What exactly do you want to change with them? I'm just curious what you mean by ''unrealistic''
