1.1 Saka Rauka Gameplay Guide: How to Get Out of Debt Fast and Other Assorted Things

Very nice guide there. Very helpful.

Quite nice; a very good show of how to play the Saka early on. My AAR shows a more aggressive approach early on, taking more settlements but requiring a couple years of treasury rebuilding. This is a fine approach as well.

Excellent guide...it helped me a lot in my own Saka campaign. I took all those rebel/seleukid towns, then marched my armies so that I could take both Parhavian towns in the same turn. Neither Nise or the other city had a garrison, so....that was it for Parhavia. Then, I took Baktra and found out two things.

1. The Baktrians took a city in the far east.

2. There is a full stack marching towards me.

Hope I can handle it...

Two questions:

How do the reforms work? I got them, but none of my units changed...all my settlements are recruiting the same thing. And all the "reform building" does is give me a history of the Real life Saka. Any advice?


How do I get cataphracts? Which building do I need?

Existing units don't change. Just build new barracks in former Greek/Indian towns and you will get the reformed units.

Excellent guide! You should do one for Hayasdan.
