Saka reforms completed - now what?

[Marcus Ulpius]

Well, after trying different campaigns checking what I'd like the most to continue, I've started a Saka campaign. So far it's not bad, despite having to blitz like mad (I've blitzed Bactria by 268). Not long ago, I've got the message about the reforms, but... Nothing happened. I still have the same bodyguards and apparently I can only train the same units I was able to train before. Is there something special I have to do to get new units from these, or will it come with "March of Time", or something else I don't know?

Thanks. I also thought that the reforms give Cataphracts, is that true? Or is that March of Time?

You don't need reforms for cataphracts. You can train the Ysaninu Aysiramjä from lvl 4 or 5 "noble" recruitment facilities. Lovely unit. They got hammers for melee!

For the Bodyguard Cataphracts (Sahiya Hadabara), you need the March of Time, i.e. the Romans. Pray they don't get destroyed too soon...
