Hm in my Mak campaign I sent the FMs first to Sparte and then 2 years to Athens, where I had great schools of learning.

Re: Spartan Agoge
I just sent my Dull/Charismatic/Langourous Demetrias Aergedes to Sparta for some Agoge-training. Hopefully, he will not turn out to be a complete idiot...

Re: Spartan Agoge
Hmmm, you better had not. You see, Dull and Languorous characters are not the best candidates. You'll just ruin him. Look at his traits rather and send him over to a city with a good school of he's bookish or something like that. If not, let him go out on campaign or govern a city.Originally Posted by Jaertecken

Re: Spartan Agoge
He turned out with "Completed the Agoge" (+1 influence, +1 morale) and that was about it...

Re: Spartan Agoge
That's the only trait I ever got from the agoge... no matter who I sent to Sparte, they all came back with that trait

Re: Spartan Agoge
Consider yourself lucky then and hope that he will turn out to be a good general (at least)!

Re: Spartan Agoge
sometimes i get Excelled in the Agoge, or he joins some secret society. I once got one guy who joined like the secret police, and had to go around Lakeonia looking for rebels and runaway slaves or something, and he became my very greatest general of all time. My Spartans always become top warriors. athenians and rhodesians are... better left on their homeland. I do have a Cretan who can dice out the pain, but hes quite well... hes a cretin :P
in my experience Spartans do very well in the Agoge, other races, especially Athenians turn into complete arseholes with the agoge.

Re: Spartan Agoge
I didn't know that schools affected FM's after their coming of age. I thought it simply made the city as a whole run better and new FM's smarter. On the same note, does anyone know if schools actually improve diplomats (or any agents for that matter)?
Re: Spartan Agoge
Yes, diplomats start out as "freshly recruited", but will gain a "trained" trait (+1 influence, and IIRC movement and security bonuses as well) if they stay in a town with an academy or better for a few turns. They will also gain this trait if they conduct negotiations, though.
I am not sure about spies and assassins. As far as I know, they gain their "trained" trait and ancillaries through the market line of buildings.
