When I play as the Greeks I like to take Campus Getae, why?
Well aside from other reasons because it is also possible to use a general unit to cross the river into Scythia (Steepes region), hire a unit of Sarmatians and then recross the river and go into Dacia (Central Europe region) and hire another one and return back to your own territory, all in the same turn. You don't even have to own either of those provinces as your guy won't be staying there.
It should still work in 1.2
Heres a list of the Mercenary pools they appear in (each pool can only have a max of 1 Sarmatian unit at a time) and which provinces these include.
Steppes Merc pool: Tribus Sakae, Tribus Alanni, Tribus Sarmatae, Maeotis, Scythia. Bosphorus
Central Europe Merc Pool: Regnum Marcomannii, Boihaemum, Tribus Iazyges, Dacia.
Armenian Pool: Colchis, Atropatene, Armenia, Pontus, Cappadocia.
Edit: Oh and the horse archers in the tactic I described above aren't too shabby either![]()
