Seleucid reforms

[boxleitnerb]

I have built the Level 3 Government in the cities mentioned in the FAQ (had to tear down the government buildings that were there before) but what is "persiapart" or "persiafull" that I have to build (supposedly afterwards)?

There is no such building in my queue.

Is the Persian reform for the Seleucids anyway? Or do they just have the catapharact reform?

Seleucids: 1
Cataphract Reforms
-At least year 253BC
-Two different generals must loose a large battle (including a loss to the general's bodyguard) against a faction that uses cataphracts (Pahlav, Armenia, Baktria).

Seleucids just have catapharact reforms.

Persian reform is just for the Persians.

Thanks. Which Faction is the Persians, then? I don' think there is one named like this?

Ah and how quickly does the reform take place after I have the traits for the 2 generals?

[stratigos vasilios]

Not sure, I've never done the Persian reform before. But the Persian faction is called Pahlava (or something similar, correct spelling at the moment eludes me!).

[Ca Putt]

The Hayasdan can restore the persian empire and thus have this line of reforms that grants them the ability to build lvl 1 govs at all. the pahlavans have the parthian reform which enables higher level of baracks and civil builings generally changesthem from nomads to settled people.

The Parthians weren't Persians. They conquered a great deal of the former Persian Empire and took over the culture, but they were steppe nomads, not true Persians. As Ca Putt wrote the Persian reform belongs to Hayasdan (Armenia), whom weren't Persian either, but were IIRC ruled by a Persian dynasty and were culturally close.

[fomalhaut]

but who spoke the Persian tongue? i'd say they are the 'true' persians, since administrations, armies, live and die but people speak forever. I've always wanted to learn modern persian..

This will take some years (IIRC 5), if you want to now it exactly, look it up in EBBS.
