I´m wondering here... The Marius Reform needs at least a hundred turns passed and an Imperial palace in at least one province with the hidden recource "Italy". Now, in order to delay it further, wouldn´t reducing the number of "italian" provinces work, in addition to slowing their population growth (poor farm levels, whatever else reduces growth and can be modded)? In the extreme, make Rome the only italian province and give it desert farm level.
