Troops of garrison in the Roman cities

[pablokirsten]

I open this post to ask if someone of you knows the type of protection units in the cities of romani, since I am charmed with this mod and I want to follow it of the form more historical ass soon as possible!
The problem this one in that not that type of units to stop in the cities as garrison since I do not know the historical reaalidad and is for it that I ask you.
Excuse for my English.

My guess is get the cheapest units possible for regular garrison (cheapest in terms of cost and cheapest in overall upkeep)...and use your actual combat units on the front lines/border cities.

This way you won't bankrupt your economy and your cities won't riot. I'd imagine this was what it would've been historically? ? =/

Well, in my opinion you shouldn't use garrisons at all in Italian cities if you want to play 100 percent historically correct. There was no regular army but militias which were only raised in times of war. It's not quite possible to do this with the game engine. To simulate this you could just divide your troops among the cites to simulate "raising" them when war breaks out.

In the beginning of the game I personally deploy my consular army in a fort near Roma oder Capua an "raise" them when enemies threaten the Res Publica. In my cities there are only family members.

Later in the game there are always some consular, proconsular, praetorian or propraetorian armies campaining overseas to punish the minor or major enemies for breaking the ius gentium. In Italian and fully pacified/romanized cities there are only family members. In other cities I deploy some (not many) cheap local troops, for example hoplitai haploi or iberian milites.

Heh, I see you speak Spanish. I know a bit, so as long as you speak as you did in your previous post, I will understand everything.

Anyhow, for Camillian-Polybian eras I use Rorarii, and for Marian-Imperial I use Vigiles, and that is as historical as you can get. Especially the Vigiles, since they were the police/fire-fighter paramilitary auxiliaries of that era. And Rorarii were garrison troops and cheap levies. Unlike the Leves, which IIRC, were normally on the open field.

It is historical possible!
But it is very difficult to realize it!
Thank you very much for your response that tendre very present in my next games in eb!

It is what I am in the habit of making I but then me the question arose from if there is a unit of the type vigilles but for the epoch camilian and polibian!
PD = if I am a Spanish student of history, and for this I want to be faithful possible to the reality.
thanks for your answer!!!
