The march of time

is there a message for the march of time? Because I am in 230 BC the romans are still alive with Capua around 33000 people, Arpi, Taras & Rhegio all more than 100000 people but did not get no notification about it til now.

I don't think the March of Time happens if the Romani are destroyed before they get their huge city... which is a major annoyance if you play Macedon and want to take them out early... and you still want the new phalanx... Need to make the event unconditional me thinks.

It's not simply having a huge city, don't they have to build a Proconsul's Palace in each of them as well?

Well, I'm at 233BC and I still got no vanilla Marians. Should I worry now, or does this have to do with Epeiros almost wiping them out some years ago?

Important is the Imperial Palace. 100,000 people in one city? Sorry I don't believe that...

He probably meant 10 000. Capua being at 33 000 probably means you're long after the event. You shouldn't get all those awesome units before 200 BC anyway... It's just too early for them.

Maybe in EB2 there will be an independent reform for everybody.

What's the trigger again? I ask because four of my five central cities have Proconsul's palaces and it hasn't popped up with the message. Not that I care for me, it doesn't make any difference for the Romani, but I'm sure the AI factions could do with a boost.

It popped up for me after I've build the 24k palace in Capua... It was advisor who told me what's going on.

hm... i'll share what i've been doing in my arche seleukeia and makedonia campaigns. i got the hellenikoi kataphraktoi unit of the arche seleukeia and the hysteroi pezhetairoi unit of makedonia by simply invading italy, and then taking one of their cities(i took taras because it was nearest to krete(for AS)/thermon(for makedonia), the nearest port city i have to them) and held them (and took a few more cities) until they were huge cities. then i gave the city back to the romani and voila, reformed units.

of course the real fun began when i discovered add_population and process_cq...

the thing is that when a had a spy in capua it had the proconsul palace built and that was around 244BC (sinc then they have quit strong spies and the FL there so I cant get a spy there to verifie if they have it or not) now its past 230 BC and nothing hapened. :S

and yea a tipo I meant 10 000
