never lets me get legionarees

[Atilius]

You see, he's not being very helpful. not very helpful at all.

I'm going to pile on here because you've just slandered THE SINGLE MOST HELPFUL member of the team. Addressing simple questions briefly allows him to deal with more (and more complicated) problems.

Go to FAQ

Read FAQ

Under "Gameplay" you will find the question, "I just got reforms but I didn't get new units."

Now do "CTRL C" on that question, "CTRL F" then paste "I just got reforms but I didn't get new units." and you will find the following answer, "You have to upgrade your MIC in order to get new units.".

See that was not too hard, when you have been here for a while you too will have small patience with the same questions asked over and over again, especially those of them that can be answered in 2 minutes in the FAQ or 5 by a Forum Search.

To add, the FAQ also says about reforms,

"Romans: 3
Polybian
The Polybian Reforms happen due to a change in equiptment and tactics that were adopted or adapted due to wars with Carthage and Celts.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
-At least year 242
-Hold 2 of these cities (Segesta, Mediolanum, Patavium, Bononia)
-Hold 2 of these cities (Lilibeo, Messana, Syracuse)
OR
-Wait until 210BC
(You get the new units only after upgrading your MICs.)

Marian
The Marian Reforms mark a shift between citizen soldiers and professional soldiers from any class who are supplied their equiptment by the state. These reforms will occur when you have a large empire with a lack of landed citizens to fill the growing need for soldiers. If at this point there is a man willing to make the changes to the military system, the reforms will take place.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
-At least the year 172BC
-Have more than 6 Latifundia built in Italy
-Hold at least 45 settlements
-Fight more than 250 battles
-Have a character that is:
Sharp/Charismatic/Vigorous
Popularis
Consul or Ex-Consul
Has Influence > 2
Has Command > 2
OR
-Conquer 90 settlements.

Augustan
If a man with the drive arises in the Republic, willing to overthrow the Senate, give him the chance and these reforms will take place. (These reforms are not inevitable and are based on whether such a character arrises.)
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
-At least year 125BC
-Hold 90 settlements
-Have at least 45 type2 settlements
-Fight 400 battles
-Have a general that is:
Sharp/Charismatic/Vigorous
At least Skilled Bureaucrat
At least Arrogans
At least Expert Recruiter
Can't be Selfless
(If these conditions are met, the general will receive a trait telling he wants to seize power. Make him the Faction Heir and as soon as he becomes the leader the reforms will happen.)"

i didnt say he wasnt helpful anywhere else. just in this particular case.

the OPs question has been answered. please lock.

[Teleklos Archelaou]

The question was answered in post #2. And stop trying to tell us, patronizingly, not only how to answer questions but when to close threads now too.

In most cases, my helping people consists of pointing them to the place where they can read information for themselves. Prussian Iron, I'll try to remember to not point you to any useful information.

[Prussian to the Iron]

well, maybe you could have been a little more descriptive and specific like me and macilrille.

its actually very easy to miss in the FAQ if you're not scrolling very slowly.

One doesn't need to be a 20 watt lightbulb to open up the *search* button and type either "roman" or "marian"...

While I am not necessarily defending Prussian Iron, I do have to say that most of the time the search function is very useless, as it only looks for matches like Ctrl+F, without sorting out the relevancy that much. Basically, any thread with those two words mentioned anywhere will be displayed. And there is a limit of 100 results. The Search function always works for me, but only after about 10-15 minutes of searching, if not more.

Perhaps you should include a link in your sig to the faq. I notice that you have links for the 1.2 fixes and frequent issues so 1 more link shouldn't be that bad.

Hopefully that will cut down on the number of people who do not even attempt to look things up for themselves and complain about you not looking it up for them. Next they'll ask you to read bedtime stories and tuck them in at night. Oh and remember to leave the door cracked and the night light on...
