Okay, you knew someone was going to be confused. Let me say that appears to be me.
I love the idea of this new system. I read the sticky post with the explanation of the MIC system. I think it's great. But while I seem to understand it in theory, I'm having problems actually implementing it.
Playing Makedonia. Medium/Medium (I'm like to win --- sue me). I take the following provinces Sparta, Athens, and another Greek one.
After I take the province, a form of government appears. I don't get to choose it. It just appears. Somehow I had the impression I would get to choose the form of government.
In time, two different "chains" of military barracks appear. One for training my Makedonians and one for training the locals. Yet, I've played for years now (translate this into a lot of turns) and I'm not seeing a lot of "local" units being offered for Sparta. You know what I want: those death-in-red Spartan hoplites. But they're not appearing.
So I just start burning turns but nothing happens (well, except I find myself fighting everyone).
Am I doing something wrong? I really want to understand because I think I'm going to like this version of RTW.
Thanks.
