    Default Galloromans: Marian Cohorts?

    Hi,

    in my game, the Romans have conquered all of Gaul but were thrown out of Italy, hence I called them "Imperium Galloromanum". So Gaul is since 30 years firmly under their control.

    So if the Romans really survive in Gaul against their own Gaulish subjugates, what military would they field? They can't train Polybian troops any more of course, have only some of them left. Surely there would be created units that bring together the best of both worlds.

    That's why I came up with the idea of making the Marian Reforms for them available. I believe Marian troops are trainable in Gallia, right? The Romans always learned from other cultures' militaries. The helmet and chainmail of the cohorts is Celtic style, isn't it?

    Would you think it's feasable to make Marian Cohorts for them available, as some sort of evolved Gallo-Roman soldier?
