Jebus can you check if cities that cant produce Polybian troops have hinterland_reforms1 building?
That would help alot.

I guess by 'hinterland_reforms1' you mean the 'Romani Reform' building.

Rome does not have it, no. Actually, Rome doesn't even have the 'Homeland' or the 'Expansion' building...

The other cities I mentioned (Segesta etc.) do have the Reform building, and the Homeland building, but they are not able to produce àny troops, including the pre-Polybian units (they never have been able to produce anything other than barbarian mercs so far). I hope they will be able to produce something with the Marian reforms, because the fact that I only have four (three, not counting Rome now) cities to produce/retrian troops in is starting to become a bit of a logistical bottleneck.

PS, the best infantry I can recruit as Baktria (Huge City, homeland, maximum MIC) is either Pezhataroi or Thorikati- no Agema, Hypaspists or Pheraspidae.

Damn!

I've still not reached that point yet, but I was really looking forward to playing with the Baktrian Agema. Is there any quick fix for this ?

PS: and cataphracts, are you able to recruit them ?

No Cataphracts yet, but honestly, Bactrian Hippeis seem quite sufficient for tackling anything I've met except heteraoi and generals. Since the Pahlava are the only faction I touch I'm not locked in war with, I'm not going to attack them just to fight cataracts (which I believe Bactria has to do in order to train their own).

Not exactly a recruitment bug, but Yuezhi Subeshi archers have an Upkeep of...0...is this intended? My Baktria campaign, they managed to field 3 full (20 unit) stacks from their last, land-locked, city. Possibly a little unbalanced.

Does anyone know what are the requirements to train the basilikon and ethiopiai agemata and the hetaroi as the ptolemaics? I have top level barracks, huge cities with type 1 governments and can't build them anywhere. The ethiopiai show in the list for the barracks in Sidon, but not in the recruitment tab. Is it a bug or should I be waiting for an event/building/etc?

/Edit: I just noticed that after building the top level MIC I can't recruit elephants in Alexandria, which I could before.

I think this might be the only occurence, but I can't build any of the extra units listed by the 16k casse barracks in the Casse capital. I can only build the base units. And in the Irish provinces, I can't build any of the unique units there, even though I've built what I believe are the necessary builings ( the barracks places). I don't know if I need to build other things too (which I doubt), or whether something isn't quite working right, because I've seen other casse player pics where the units I can't seem to build are being used.

My invasion of Europe failed due to my lack of more experienced sodliers.
