Right building sequence for Saka Allied Government?

[Alexandros Megas]

Thanks Morte for the map! It will be very useful to me!

I was waiting for that option in Alex Eschate and Marakanda! I havent't conquered yet Baktra, but today I will do it! I want to have at least the Hoplitai Haploi for garrison purposes to defend my cities. With my FM and HA I think I can take the offensive in a blitz, although I would prefer to be slow and unify the tribes (although the steppes are very poor), and then attack the main cities.

I have conquered at the moment: Chach, Gava Saka, Alex Eschate and Marakanda.

So, the right way in Baktra is: a) Indigenous Settlements, b) Allied Government, c) Regional MIC ???

LazyO and evryone! I apologize for the Caps!

I think you can do the first two in either order, but I prefer the order you used (to get the law bonus sooner).

I've changed the thread title to make it easier to read. Can't change post-titles without editing the posts themselves, though.

For Saka, I've only played the early part of the campaign, up to 200 BC. All I use for garrisons is foot archers. And if I want Greek troops, I hire mercenaries. Hiring mercs is my favourite method of recruitment in the early game, since it doesn't deplete town populations.

It is a really a tough challenge to have a campaign with Saka. Good luck!
For your campaign there are some same advices to offer for all nomads pahlav/saka/sauros:

-Never disband your main army,
-loot a lot,
-hire mercenaries cos you need lots of money and high level of MICs to hire your fearsome cataphracts...
