Apologies for the double post.
I've started a Hayasdan game. After building the tribal government in 5 provinces, I got the kingdom reform and unlocked the satrapy governments. Two points :
- I've conquered Gazaka after the reform and found that both the tribal government and the satrapy were available as choices. Is this normal? I thought the satrapy was a straight upgrade.
- The satrapy seems to restrict recruitment to cavalry only, apart from Armavir where I can still get some infantry. Is this WAD? Should I have held on building the satrapies untill more reforms were enacted? At this point I have 8 settlements, with infantry available only in one. (Edit : Turns out the infantry in Armavir comes from a native colony building)
More general observations : Pontos is rocking out this time! First the Ptolemies took the whole south coast of asia minor + Syria and Assyria. Then Pergamon and Pontos attack the ptolemies, with Pergamon taking Lydia, Ionia, Karia and Pamphylia, while Pontos took Kilikia, Syria, Assyria, and then drove south to Syria Koile and Phoinike! This is turn 84 btw.
2nd edit : After upgrading Karkathiokerta to a city, I have the option to build there a Royal Kingdom of Hayasdan government. From the Faction governments and colonies thread over at twc, it seemed as it's only buildable in Armavir.
Though it makes sense that the Imperial Capital of Hayasdan is the only one to be restricted to Armavir.
