Can't Build Roman Faction MICs in Taras or Rhegion?

**Jarardo** · 03-07-2007, 01:10

I am using .81a, along with the "First cohorts, night battles + recruitable roman generals minimod"

Playing as the Romans, I built a type one government in both Taras, and Rhegion, and no MICs were available(Factional or Local). I tried using a type 2 gov, and then the local MIC was available.

I used cheats to remove all buildings, then build them again, and tried different population levels, still no Factional MIC. I don't know if this is something to do with the minimod, such as the type 1 government is not supposed to be available in those provinces? I think the "homeland recource" is labeled as western greek in Taras...

I remember a post that showed all the areas that were type 1 and 2 for each faction. I can't find it now.

Any Ideas? Thanks in Advance, Jarardo

Factional MICs are not available in southern Italia and the Po valley until the Polybian Era. Government resources are not dynamic, but the fact that is 'Homeland' should actually apply a couple decades later.

What point in time have you reached?

Romanisation extends with each reform (kinda, sorta) You can get Roman troops in southern Italy after the Polybian reforms. Which is when Roman faction barracks become available in the area, as opposed to auxilliary/allied troops.

some of my auxillary baracks can't build anything. I've build up to 2-3 levels, and some still trains nothing. Do I need to wait for the reforms to train auxillary in some cities?

In certain places, the regionals would be the same as the factionals. In these places, the regional MIC is empty.

Also Italian regionals for Rome are in the factional MIC, so that they go away with time. (It would make no sense to have Samnites in the Imperial roster. Samnites were completely Romanized.)

Also there are still recruitment holes.

I think that's the main reason. In some cities, I have both local and auxillary barracks, and I can't recruit anything whatsoever.

Thanks for the quick answers. I'm only at 262bc. hmm..

So if I build a type one government in those provinces, I won't be able to recrtuit anything there until the polybian reforms. Because I can't build the local MIC with the type one gov. So I'll have to build the type two, and then demolish it and build a type one after the polybian reforms.

Is there a map or a chart I can look at that will give me this info so I'll know which type of gov to build?

Thanks again
