Hysteroi Pezhetairoi

[BigTex]

I've been unable to find any info on their trigger in the faq or elsewere. Is there an event trigger in the game yet to start recruiting them? If so what is it?

They should be part of a still hypothetical Makedonian Reform. For now, they're triggered by the vanilla marian event (someone builds an imperial palace in Italy).

Thanks for the hasty reply.

Doh though it doesnt take very long for rome to get 24,000 people in it. The makedonia reforms are really interesting part of .8 adds more depth to the conflicts in greece.

no they cant be triggered by the marian reform because in my Macedonia campaign only like 30 years into the campaign and i can recruit them already.

Would they be the only unit of this yet to get past the planning stages reform? Or would the maks get other new units too?

30 years (120 turns) could be enough time for Rome to build an imperial palace in italy.

Kestrosphendone (dart slingers) or Thorakitai would be nice

"no they cant be triggered by the marian reform because in my Macedonia campaign only like 30 years into the campaign and i can recruit them already."

If I understood it correctly, there are currently TWO marian reforms in EB. One nice EB marian reform that occurs after lots of conditions have been met, and one ghostly vanillaish one(triggered by imperial palace in italy) whose only effect is to give the romans a message about a new man and, appearently, enabling the Hysteroi Pezhetaroi for the macedonians.
