Nah, I just meant that, even if Marius reform never kicked in, I would have no problem taking over the rest of the world with producing only pre-Marius units.

It would need a bigger number of troops, but it's not like money or population is a problem after the first thirty years.

Then I will repeat my second set of questions:

Does the campaign game start too early perhaps??

No, it's just that human players are able to conquer effectively, and that there isn't enough to do except conquering ^^

What could be done to slow the rampant conquorer (player or AI)??

More emphasis on diplomacy and civil management.

I think a good idea might be to limit the trigger to palaces built in the Roman starting cities or at least in cities that have a high level of Roman culture. In other words the Scipii could build it in Carthage but it would only act as a trigger after the city had been thoroughly Romanized. It would make it unpredictable but still delay it somewhat.
