Marian Reforms

[Vincent Butler]

What are the requirements for Marian reforms?

[Ludens]

From the EB FAQ (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?84854-Europa-Barbarorum-FAQ) thread:


The Marian Reforms mark a shift between citizen soldiers and professional soldiers from any class who are supplied their equiptment by the state. These reforms will occur when you have a large empire with a lack of landed citizens to fill the growing need for soldiers. 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
-Hold at least 45 settlements
-Fight more than 250 battles
-Have a character that is:
Sharp/Charismatic/Vigorous
Popularis
Consul or Ex-Consul
Has Influence > 2

OR
-Conquer 90 settlements.

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.
