Simple question, how do I trigger the Marius Reforms?
Either you or another roman ally has to build an imperial palace.
Thanks, sapi, but something else must be needed. I have huge cities already but no marius reforms.
There is a time point that you have to hit as well, plus a random error component.
Well, at the moment I'm putting together huge armies of upgraded Preatorian Cohorts, if I don't get the reforms soon there really isn't going to be much point.
You need an Imperial Palace in 1 city on the Italian Mainland
The date needs to be after 220bc
A random trigger must occur
My MR didnt occur until 192bc

I think that building an Imperial palace does trigger the event, but in real life, the MR didn't happen until 108 BC... so in order to be true to the timeline ~:handball:
But you can't imagine a campaign going on that long so it can't really be true to history..
well tihs is how it is
1. the date is 220 BC or later
2. after that date build a imperial palace
3. if the building is done you get the marian reforms
cause i had imperial palace even before 220 and when i hit 220 nothing happened so i had to wait another 25 years before a new city hit the limit for the upgrade. damn i was pissed
There is a random factor involved.
Well, I performed a test. My campaign with the Julii disagrees with the talks. It was e/e, as I was concentrating on getting the reform.
1. It's 245 BC
2. I built an imperial palace in Carthage
3. No other Roman settlement is huge.
This, I am afraid, disagrees with all of you. I wonder if it is based on difficulty. I will investigate. :book:
:help: would be appreciated.
@Ziaelas
What version are you running??
With patch 1.2 shouldn`t it be possible to get the reforms before 220 BC.
Ah, it hadn't got the patch........I'm off to download it... :charge:
no there isn't not at mine version of 1.2v as soon as i finished buildingQuote:

That doesn't matter. Post 1.2 I've goten the reforms as soon as the clock rolled to 220 BC and sometimes I had to wait for 10 years (20 turns) after 220 BC. Like most of you I though that getting the reforms post 1.2 was a simple matter of me have Imperial pallace in Italy and in 220 BC boom reforms event. But it didn't work out like that. The game was Julii M/M, myself, the senate, and the Scipii Italian cities were all fully developed huge cities (I used spies to check things out). The Brutii however were lagging behind. A major war with the Macedonians had left them with drained cities, Croton and Tarentum were both just large cities. They were also flat broke. So I decided to experiment and see if the game tracked the development of the Italian cities and who owned them in the Marian trigger. So I bought Croton from the Brutii and built it up. I didn't have to build it up much as soon as I built the farm upgrade, BOOM reforms.Quote:
