How do I unlock certain units?

[Ascaniius]

I'm playing as macedon, and have a holidiseros barracks but I can't train thorax units. It just says unavailable even though I have researched the unit reform purple box. I'm not sure what it did, because it doesn't list anything (Hint for an update !!). I'm in the middle of a huge war vs sparta, athenai, and the odryssians and I need the best army I can get but I can't train anything better then hoplitai and the 2nd tier pikemen because thorax are highlighted out, even with 100% hellenic culture.

BTW: Love the mod, it made me actually hate factions, and is a refreshingly challenging experience!

DEI implement reforms. Might be an idea to check the scriptorium thread that's stickied

Reforms Basic Information:
- Make sure you don't have any other mods that affect the scripting.lua file (camera mods, etc).
- Current factions without reforms: British, Eastern.
- Armenian and Illyrian troops will trigger based on the global Greek reforms.
- Reforms are based on two factors: Imperium level and turn number. We may add more complicated triggers in the future.
- When a Reform for a faction occurs, new units will be available to recruit and the older versions will no longer be recruitable.
- The AI has different requirements for Reforms, they only require a certain turn number.
- Technologies that unlock barracks types are still present, as each barracks level has a value in each reform tier.
- Some factions rely on the Greek global reforms. These include Armenia, Illyria and Odryssia.


Roman Auxiliaries
- Unlike other reforms, Rome's auxiliary barracks is locked instead of the units.
- Once Marian reforms are reached, the tier 3 auxiliary barracks is unlocked. At Imperial, tier 4 is unlocked.
- This was done to help with load times in 1.0.


Unit Upgrades
- Units from previous reform tiers can be upgraded to the new reform tier in some cases.
- Make sure to research the custom technology for your faction in order to get the unit upgrades. Germanic and Gallic cultures do not have a custom technology.
- Here is a list of the Unit Upgrades.

How to Edit Reform Requirements
1. Download and unpack PFM.
2. Use PFM to open the DeI mod pack.
3. Find the lua_scripts section. Under that section will be a file called reforms.lua.
4. It should look like this:
Global Reforms section

5. Find the reforms you want to edit. For example, for Rome the part should read:
-- MAIN ROME CAMPAIGN
_lib.requirements.main_rome.player = {
roman = {3, 40, 5, 100, 7, 210},
6. The first numbers are Imperium level, the second are turn numbers. So, if you want the first reforms to be Imperium 2 and turn 20 you would change the above line to read: roman = {2, 20, 5, 100, 7, 210},
