    Default Praetorian

    What do I have to build in order to get the Praetorian legions? I feel like I've built everything in Rome that could logically lead to them. I read about a building called "Casae Praetoria" but don't see anything like that in my build options. I'm playing with patch 8. I could really use their help. I decided to take Italy/Sicily and hunker down building up my cities until the reforms so now my only training center for legions is Patavium. I believe I've unlocked the Imperial Legions because I have the option to recruit 4 different legions from Patavium.

    If you haven't had the Marian Reforms, then you won't be able to recruit Imperial Legions (or Praetorian ones). On top of that you need the Castra Praetoria to be built, it can only be built in Rome, and requires an Imperial Palace.

    I have both an Imperial Palace and the Marian Reforms. Are there any other prereqs for the building?

    In Rome? You need the Castra Praetoria, which can only be built after the Urban Barracks. Again the Castra Praetoria can only be built in Rome.

    EDIT: Changed Royal to Urban, as royal barracks is the internal name.

    In the version you're playing, it's last building in the Cavalry Tree....after the circus_maximus. It's been moved in the newer not released version. Sorry.
