Troop recruitment

[Origin_Unknown]

Hi all,

ive started playing this mod today but i cant seem to recriut any foot soliders? in capua and rome ive finished constructing EVERYTHING. but in rome i can only recruit the urban and preat cohort and in capua i cant create anything excpet the aux legions?

any ideas?


p.s yes, ive had the marius reforms

the legions are only recruitable in certain areas. I had the same issue, only auxilia and urban cohorts are recruitable in Rome, etc, but once I expanded out of Italy, you'll find certain areas can recruit 1 or more legions.

Look in (RTW)\data\_important_stuff.

There is a text file in there that explains where you can recruit the Legions.

Didn't Rome recruit legions from Italy too? shouldn't they be able to recruit some legion there? because all I can recruit in Italy are auxila, archers and Urban Cohorts. but they didn't send urban cohorts on invasions.

romans never stationed troops in Rome. Never. Legionaries were trained in Capua and other towns. Early, i.e early republican armies, were trained in Rome but once they secured Italy and the republic got older they got more paranoid about having troops in the city. they had the urban cohorts for peace and policing, never legions.

Ohh that is a very interesting idea. Hadnt noticed that system yet since i never play as Romans much prefer my Hellenic faction for RTW and Syracuse its my number once choice for RS. Knew there was an AOR system for the Romans but never thought it worked like that...great idea
