in anticipation of Augustan Reforms...

**POTENTIAL SPOILER ALERT**

###################################

So last night I finally got my Marian Reforms.

To avoid it taking as long as Marian Reforms, I want to do everything
possible so that I can get Augustan at the earliest allowable year.

One character trait needed for my Augustus character is
"at least arrogans".

I was wondering what other traits are "at least arrogans"?

EDIT:
It looks like "insolens" is another trait that can be considered "at least arrogans",
however correct me if I'm wrong.

Another trait is that the character be "an expert recruiter".
None of my characters has that.
Should I groom my character by putting him in a city and recruit troops in that city at every turn?

When 110 BC started approaching several characters seemed to pop up with the necessary traits. The reforms happened immediately when the year arrived.

Don't know if that is the norm though.

To get the Marians I just used FD to make the big states protectorates. That way you got 90 provinces.

I really hope that you can get past till the end of the game...if that's your goal

Thanks ||Lz3|| !
It's 138 BC now and I know I'm running behind.

EB is a great mod, and I'd like to enjoy as much as I can before 66 BC arrives,
cause that's always been the party pooper in my experience.

there are 2 confirmed stories of having past 66 bc but I think that in both of them there was only 1 roman faction left... , it hasn't been prooved with more of them

That's what I'm worried about.
And you do mean that if I'm Romani, then I have to be the only one left, correct?
Not me and another roman faction, right?

I heard (maybe from you?) that Arche Seleukeia is one of the roman factions.
It's going to be extremely difficult for me to conquer them all by 66 BC.

I have spies scouting the map (see, I really try to avoid cheats) and Sabyn and
Arche Seleukeia still around. I think Baktria, Pahlava, and Hayasdan were all
swallowed by AS.

Of course, there might be some cheats available around this, but still...

that's why there's a chance that if you're not one of those factions its likely that you wont have the 66bc crash... but... I can't confirm that...yet

All factions are alive and I´ve passed 66 BC in my current Roman campaign without crashing nor having the "roman" factions declare war on one another.
