    Default No eagle standard or legion name?

    Hey I have just had the Marian reforms in my Romani 1.1 save, I have been looking forward to using the new Prima Cohors Reformata and the numbered legions that 1.1 has included. However when I trained my first unit they did not have an eagle standard but a normal one, and the only legion name present was just 'legio'. I thought it would be Legion I Roma or similar rather than just 'legio'.
    For all intents and purposes they are just a normal cohort?

    Is this a bug? If so could someone tell me how to fix it if possible please?

    You have unit banners turned off, hence to eagle. As to numbering (not naming) it somehow wasn't implemented.

    I thought that the eagle was carried by a standard bearer though?

    Not in Vanilla EB. There is a mod for that adds a eagle bearer to the unit, somewhere though.
    BLARGH!

    First cohort numbering was inadvertantly left out of the 1.1 release. It has been enabled in our current internal build an will be available in the next patch.

    Next patch? That sounds like it's going to be a 1.11 or 1.1v2. Soon?

    Given the collection of non-retrospective fixes we've had, I'd say not.
    It began on seven hills - an EB 1.1 Romani AAR with historical house-rules (now ceased)
    Heirs to Lysimachos - an EB 1.1 Epeiros-as-Pergamon AAR with semi-historical houserules (now ceased)
    Philetairos' Gift - a second EB 1.1 Epeiros-as-Pergamon AAR

    I thought legions weren't numbered until later Roman times...?

    By the time EB 2 comes out, you'll probably have another computer anyhow.
