Roma: dependent on others' reforms?

[bovi]

You do not need the faction in question to reform in order to recruit foreign reformed troops, unfortunately. We have no way of representing the reforms for any other faction due to hardcoded limits to number of buildings and a bug that makes it impossible to require other buildings than MIC for the unit.

Edit: I forgot the other questions.

I think you might need to aid your Carthie friends to have them build a quinquireme... I may be wrong. Anyway, what do you need them for, when you rule the seas anyway?

The highest MIC also enables you to build the highest MIC in the next reform. No need for demolishing.

Righto, thanks for the reply! I just want to build a quinquereme, that's all. Queen of the seas and all, y'know. Just doesn't cut the same ice ruling the seas with a quadrireme.

EDIT: Goodness, I can build Neitos in Segesta, Bononia and Patavium! And this is only only in 247BC. I feel so evil now. At least I guess we can justify it by saying the Romans paid for the armour and gave them half-naked barbarians the stuff to Romanise them. Or something.
