    Actually, the FAQ has no information on the Macedonian reforms. I, too, am wondering what needs to be done in order to recruit those wonderful Hysteroi Pezhetairoi.

    Cheers.

    It hardly seems fair to tell all the Romani, Saka, Hayasdan, Seleucid, Pahlava, Carthaginian, Celtic, and Sweboz players what needs to be done for their reforms, but to leave the Macedonians in the dark. I just want my spiffy-looking Hysteroi Pezhetairoi. No love.

    Cheers.

    Well, we have posted it about a thousand times on the board. You could either play and find out on your own or use the search function.

    In fact, it is probably more fun to play and find out.

    I'll spoil the fun and answer:
    All reforms that aren't listed in the FAQ are not actual reforms (you don't have to do anything) or they are tied to the Vanilla Marian Reform even or "March of Time" event (Imperial Palace in non-Roma central Italy).

    In this case it is the later.

    Isn't the vanilla marian event a little too fast? It could be slowed down or it will just continue to trigger after 15 years of campaign?

    It's as fast as the Romans make babies, I hear city mod drops the birth rate, that would probably help.

    15 years? I got my hysteroi pezhetairoi in 215 BCE in my campaign. I guess the war between Rome and Epeiros is to blame for that though. Not that I need hysteroi pezhetairoi. My pezhetairoi all have 4 or more experience, so they've got better stats then unexperienced hysteroi pezhetairoi.

    Ah, thank you.

    My apologies, Abou. I ran a search for "Hysteroi Pezhetairoi" (on the assumption that they would, in fact, be mentioned by name in any relevant discussion of the Macedonian reform), but couldn't find anything. Hence this bump.

    Cheers.
