Re: Pre Marian troops
I think maybe their morale has been lowered. I had some morale issues when fighting phalanxes before I got to pretorians. The kill rate has been lowered across the board to give us slower battles. However one still can lose quickly to a chain rout, so you have to place your lines and general wisely.
I'd say go for Principes as fast as you can, and then upgrade them to legion level.

The art of war, then, is governed by five constant
factors, to be taken into account in one's deliberations,
when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field.
These are: (1) The Moral Law; (2) Heaven; (3) Earth;
(4) The Commander; (5) Method and discipline.
