How do you get Massiliotes Hoplitai?

[stupac]

I'm currently playing as Epeiros and I have a type 4 government and level 4 foreign MIC in Massalia, but I can't train these guys. Are they not trained in Massalia or what?

On a side note, I've been looking at the trading card project trying to figure out what units I can levy from captured Roman provinces. Supposedly, cards with the "R" under the picture can be recruited regionally, but I noticed Hasati don't have an "R" under them but I can recruit them.

And while we are on it, where can I recruit these Taxeis Triballoi I see in the regional unit trading cards? Heh, I wish it was easier to figure all these things out without constant construction trial and error.

Thanks.

Not all factions get all regional units.

Only Aedui, Arverni, and Koinon Hellenon get Massiliotes Hoplitai.
Hastati were only recently made regional and Ark may not have made that update yet.
Only Makedonia and Getai get Taxeis Triballoi.

Strangely enough I seem to remember recruiting them as the roman's in Massila. I'm about to start up my .82 campaign so Ill update you if I find a different result

Aww, what a shame. I thought they weren't faction specific. Well, crap, those were all the sweet regionals I had my eye on. Oh well, thanks for the reply Marcus.

No problem.

Can't you just hire them as mercs? I think you can.

[Bonny]

Yes, you can hire them as mercs in the region around Massilia.

Apart from the region of massalia you can recruit them in the adjacent seaside region(dont remember name) as mercenaries
Nice exotic unit although in strength similar to other greek hoplites.
Good luck with your campaign
