I'm playing Jullii and have conquered most of Gaul, but I still don't have legionaires. Well I think. I built a legionaire barracks and can only train that second level of infantry troops (forgot the name). And for some reason I can't upgrade to the next level after the legionaire barracks, I have enough money.

Another questions, on some instances, I have several units queued for recruiment and training. It takes for ever for those troops to be completed, like 2 or 3 turns. Is it because I don't have enough people in my cities?

How do I get Ballistas as Jullii?


What troops can perform the tortoise formation and when should I use it?

Also, after conquering Gaul, do I get to hire Gauls mercs?
