    Default Marian Reforms

    What are the requirements for Marian reforms?
    Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight: Psalm 144:1

    In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
    As modest stillness and humility:
    But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
    Then imitate the action of the tiger;
    -Henry V by William Shakespeare

    From the EB FAQ thread:

If at this point there is a man willing to make the changes to the military system, the reforms will take place.

    -At least the year 172BC
    -Have more than 6 Latifundia built in Italy

    OR

    Ok, thanks. I was wondering what it would take. Vanilla RTW it seemed to happen when I got my second huge city.

    Slight addendum to Ludens' post. The Marian reforms can only trigger when you have successfully triggered the Polybian reforms. So they year has to be at least 242 BC (because that is the quickest you can get Polybian reforms). Then of course you need to control the 90 settlements.
