    Default Retraining Varangian Guard?

    Where can I retrain Varangian Guards? I'm playing late era as Romans (Stainless Steel 6.4 with BGRIV and MSC 6.0) and don't see any place where I can recrtuit or retrain them in building browser. Do I need some sort of event to be able to train them? I know Scholae Barracks units do need an event, but I can't recruit Varangians from there.

    Pretty sure its only in Constantinople and only after a certain date, but not sure what that date is, sorry

    You need the Mayor's Palace. The event required is Heavy Mail, which occurs in 1200 I believe. If you're playing Late Era, they should be available from the start as long as you have the Mayor's Palace.

    Edit: Also Constantinople isn't required. But you do need a Huge City.

    Ah thanks Got confused since I remembered reading from somewhere that it was Heavy Mail at 1200 that was required. Since it indeed is Late campaign which starts at 1220 I should've been able to retrain them from Constantinople at least and was wondering that where they are lurking Probably just missed the detail from building browser, or forgot to check the adminstration build tree
