Re: Roman legions for MP.
I personally think that option 3 is the best one. I play the Romans all the time, especially in MP and i don't like using units from anything but one period which is usually Marian.
Re: Roman legions for MP.
As long as these legions are close to the historical ones, I vote to let them choose only from one period. So please no armys of only Praetorians or such.

Horse archers?
Re: Roman legions for MP.
Re: Roman legions for MP.
hum.... well.... it really depends on the players. I chose option one.
I mean... I the players should agree on what type of gameplay they are going to use BEFORE they start the battle.
Re: Roman legions for MP.
This is for the rules of an upcoming multiplayer tournament, I think. In regular games the players can decide whatever they want.
Re: Roman legions for MP.
Yeah
Edit: BTW Bovi, did you say you weren't going to join?

Theres a tournament starting soon?Please let me get back in time for it.Still away visiting family.Oh,and I say let them choose between one time period.Using historical legions seems to restricting for choices.
Re: Roman legions for MP.
That's right Pharnakes, I probably won't be able to make the time.
Re: Roman legions for MP.

Ohh, just my little Pontus stack, that I would have introduced you to yesterday if hamachi hadn't been playing up.
Re: Roman legions for MP.
i voted for option 3.
it'd also be nice if we could get triarii unit reduced to half a size.
Re: Roman legions for MP.
People refering to historical armies and such, I don't think that's feasable. I mean sure you can make roman historical armies and what about the other factions? I mean try to make a Saba historical army... Or Saka for that matter...
If players wanna have an army with as much praetorians as they can get, let them. It's a really bad army actually as you'll have around 1100 (roughly 37K mnai) guys who can be easilly defeated by combined arms... Really that's not a really good army as soon as your cavalry hits them and they get pinned by your infantry they're as good as dead.
Cheers...
Re: Roman legions for MP.
I don't see how you can reasonably justify limiting Roman players options without also limiting all other factions who undergo reforms as well
Re: Roman legions for MP.
good player shouldnt use romani in the first place
cmon they are soo overpowered
Re: Roman legions for MP.
less than phalanxes...
Cheers...
Re: Roman legions for MP.
They may be overpowered, but they look so cool.
