Early Marian Reforms
Create more legions early in the game! This eases restrictions for the Marian Reforms law to be enacted. Rank only needs to be "Major Power". You still need Cohorts researched. No more one-legion limit for early/mid game.
This also changes the Marian Reforms law to include the Punic Reforms manpower bonuses. Not sure if there’s a good reason why it is the way it is, but since the Marian Reforms were about increasing available manpower and talent (right?), it seems wrong to cause you to lose those major Punic law bonuses.
It should only conflict with mods which alter recruitment laws, so conflicts should be unlikely.
I would also LIKE to provide a way to create multiple legions per province, so we can have more realistic legion sizes, but the UI might be a little too hard coded to do this. If anyone thinks they know of a way or believes it’s possible, drop me a note in the comments.
Edit Aug 10 2021 – This should work for non-Roman republics and Empire/monarchy now too. (Although the law effects bonuses are a bit different, it seemed fair to include those.)
Edit Jun 12 2024 – Updated for 2.0.4.
