    As far as I know, there was no such thing like the Polybian Reforms. Polybios was a historian describing the Roman Legions of his time. The Legions underwent a lot of changes in the time following the defeats against Hannibal.

    One of the most prominent reformer, espacially on the tactical use of the Legions and its parts, was Scipio. That was the reason for me to place them in the end of the Second Punic War in this describtion, the trigger in EB indicates the same.

    Changes or military reforms do not come overnight. For example, the Cohors were allready used before the Marian Reforms.

    Excellent work sir. It is most impressive. Rome has just moved up the queue of factions to play next. Excellent work indeed.

    Hey konny,

    I just wanted to say once again how valuable I find your Unit Guide...it rocks seriously hard! I have a well-worn printout of your final map right next to my monitor and use it constantly.

    Now I just need to remember to modify the client ruler movement penalty in all my Type IV governments...

    But a BIG thank you once again for your great work!!!

    Thank you!

    I do similar things for all factions that I play, last but not least because I need it for my house rules. May be I find the time to work some of them out as unit guides too.
