    I learned from my own Pontos campaign not to build Type IV governments anywhere except in Ankyra until you get your economy off the ground. The wages of multiple client rulers can ruin a small faction like Pontos early on. Instead, I generally go with Type IIIs, because they're cheap and allow you to get some decent, or at least usable, native units, although admittedly once I had my economy up and going, most of my early-game Pontos armies consisted of mercenaries.

    Cheers.
