Marian Reforms

[HailMightCaeser]

I think the reforms are just for the Romans... I don't think Carthage has these reforms?

Caeser is right. You can upgrade your towns as much as you want as any non-Roman faction, and do not have to worry about those Roman factions being effected. The reforms are only triggered at at least 220 bc and by Roman factions only, not to mention they have to build their Imperial Palace on the Italian Peninsula.

Theoretically, you could fully upgrade your towns and units and storm Italy while any Roman faction could only muster Hastati and Principes .

Could have sworn I read somewhere here that every faction's General upgrade was triggered by the Marian Reforms. Nevermind, sorry.

[The Stranger]

no it isn't. but if one roman faction has the imperial palace in the italian peninsula and get marian reforms every roman faction does.

I am playing as the romans (installed the game --> R:TR 5.1).
I have CTD since 217 BC every turn and I don't have the Marius reforms yet.
I have the last palace in Italy ...

after the game CTD, I load the save file and play one turn and then CTD again.

I am at the year 212 Bc ...

I am working with windows XP ...

The thing is that with Rome V.1 I did get the reform.
but since then I played the game but usually it was over before the event took place.

I did a test and skipped the buildings and battles and just "End Turn" antil 199 Bc ...
the game didn't CTD and I didn't get the reforms.

I have heard that their is a infamous Marius Reforms CTD that has come about with the introduction of 1.2.

What am I need to do now ???

Stop playing with Rome ...

Is a way to cange the File.

Do I need to Reinstall the game ???

Lt Mor,
When you play with fire (mods) you might get burned. I would suggest you uninstall the RTR, and RTW. Do a new install from the original disk and then install the 1.2 patch. Try it and it should work. If you want to try RTR again after that, I would suggest you research the results of others who have before you do it.

There must be something more than the 2 requirements that trigger the reform because I had an Imperial Palace at Capua and it was finished by 220 BC. The reform did not happen until 218. I don't know if it was coincidence or not, but I upgraded the academy at Capua, and the reform took place on the turn it was completed. I'm beginning to wonder if another building must be built in the Imperial Palace city in order to trigger the reform.

Maybe a CA rep is reading this and can clarify?
