The Scythian Cavalry enhances almost any army it's in, hope that the next update or a update in the near future goes there.

You can recruit scythian horse archers in steppe regions with 3.6.11

I have, as well as Scythian lancers, but mostly scythian horse archers, they're great against western barbarian factions as well as against a army that doesn't have any Cavalry on the field, it's just safe to back them with the Scythian lancers and some pellasts (hvy pelasts, Thracian, Illyrian), this worked for me in a battle against the Scipii last night.

XGM version 3.6.12 is now available for download.

You can get it here.
You can see the readme here.

The major changes are:

XGM Version 3.6.12

-Added named legions

XGM Version 3.6.11

-Barbarian and Steppe AOR units added to Mundus Magnus
-Carthaginian Levy Phalangites moved up to City Barracks in Italy

You can also get an untested patch file here that will upgrade the previous release.

Helgi: I don't have any immediate plans for the Scythians, but I might add Scythian lancers as an AOR unit. I do plan to replace desert cavalry with something else, but otherwise I don't plan any more big changes to the Ptolemies.

Ianofsmeg16 & alahir: It's always nice to hear back from people who enjoy the mod.

kburkert: I'm still thinking about those raider units. I need to do a little more research.

Cesare diBorja: Four turns per year is not going to be added to the mod. I was planning to take a look at the possibility of having it as an option - but it looks like a fairly complicated add-on, so even that is unlikely to happen.

**Cesare diBorja** · 04-13-2006, 04:49

Hey, DBH,

How about a 4turns per year(or more) script for XGM or even those lithoboli that we talked about earlier? Any plans to make changes as such?
