v0.72 Strange Recruitment Areas/Problems?

[Big_John]

no promises, but i plan to cut much more than 1/3 from the EDB.

I´m not sure if it is a bug, but I think it fits in here:

Playing the Romani, I conquered the provinces in Italy and Sicily. The problem is that I can hardly recruit any units there.

In Segesta I can recruit the two types of barbarian infantry, but no Roman units, although the Roman Homeland Building and Barracks were built there.

In the Greek-influenced provinces in the south (Taras, Rhegion, Messana, Syracuse) it´s basically the same thing, just without the barbarian infantry. That means, I can build only diplomats and spies.

But I´m not quite sure, if there is still some building that is needed to produce Hastati in one of the cities I mentioned above. Perhaps anyone can tell me?

to quote urnamma from a conversation:
"in southern italy, we have planned units; lucanians, bruttians, and apulians will be recruitable there. in segesta, the roman homeland ought to allow roman recruitment"

i'll check the EDB and see if something is wrong with segesta's recruitment.


thx for the feedback guys, keep it coming.

Can I assume then, that a homeland building + barracks are sufficient to build the original Roman units like Hastati and others? I guess I was a bit confused about this because the description of the "Colonia"-building was telling something about recruitment as well. But that seems to be nothing more than a piece of historical info...

In addidtion to my first posting above I want to add that I am unable to recruit the Roman units in any city that the Romani didn´t control in the beginning of the game. The problem isn´t only about Segesta, I think it´s global.

Another strange thing: I took Lilibeo and didn´t raze the Carthaginian Homeland Building. That way I can recruit the Liby-phoenician Infantry there, but strangely I CAN`T recruit spies and diplomats in Lilibeo. Is that meant to be that way?

Last one: After conquering the former Greek cities of southern Italy I noticed, that I suffered no cultural penalty. That problem may be a consequence of the fact that the Romani of EB were made out of vanilla´s Seleucids...

Epeiros can't recruit any units at all in Illyria_Hellenike at the game's start with the lowest level MIC (muster field) with the type1 govt (which we place by scripts). There should at least be something here.

In Kiat, the Persian Mobilization building lists Pahlav Shahrdaran as a unit it can recruit, but I don't see them on Kiat's recruitment tab.

After building a troop-training building level 2 (8 turns, 4000 Mnai) in Sardika with a type-3 government in place, I can't train a single unit that isn't a diplomat, spy or assassin.

In Kiat, the Persian Mobilization building lists Pahlav Shahrdaran as a unit it can recruit, but I don't see them on Kiat's recruitment tab.

Pahlava Shahrdaran is the gov't type. Some recruitment lines are too long and show parts of the code besides the unit.
