Karthadast reforms.. ?

[EdwardL]

Checklist..

1) Script enabled: check
2) Requirements fulfilled resulting in spawn of Xan: check
3) Click on advisor's portrait as opposed to clicking the "X" : check
4) Reforms occur: ??

Are the reforms supposed to activate the recruitment pool for the upgraded spearmen? if so it's not occuring unless there is criteria to be met after Xan's arrival which i cannot find in the FAQ.

Right now Xan's wreaking havoc in Iberia, and to be honest i'd prefer to keep the current units to keep upkeep down(unless both are optional), but someone else might want the new units. Anyone else experiencing this?

What are the requirements for Xan (?) 's appearance, and who is Xan? Where is this explained?

[Foot]

Xan has nothing to do with the Carthage Reforms. They are activated by different conditions.

Could you tell me what, exactly, the conditions for each event (Reforms and Xanthippus) are please?

[Dram]

Can I also ask a Carthage question: Is there any games/festivals that Carthage can hold?

Here are the reform conditions:

end_if

if I_CompareCounter Carthage_Reforms < 1
set_counter Carthage_Reformsinc1 0
set_counter Carthage_Reformsinc2 0
end_if
end_monitor

The reforms are triggered when it is past 235 BC and the two check conditions have been met OR when 200 BC rolls in without check conditions.

The first check counter checks for the presence of a top level NATIVE MIC in settlements, the second checks for ownership of provinces in Italy, Iberia etc.

Hope that helps.

Cheers
