PRAETORIAN BODYGUARDS!!!
ROME GENERALS SHOULD HAVE A CHOICE BETWEEN CAV LEGATUS BODYGUARD AND PRAETORIANS/PRAETORIAN GUARD BODYGUARD, NOT TRIARII/VETERAN LEGIONARIES/EVOCATI. WIKIPEDIA SAYS THAT GENERALS SINCE SCIPIO'S TIME HAD BEEN GUARDED BY PRAETORIANS (although wikipedia is perhaps not the best source of info). MY LATIN TEACHER AND OUR HEAD OF CLASSICS BOTH VERIFY THIS AND THEY HAVE BOTH WRITTEN BOOKS ON ROMAN HISTORY (one on greek history too, i wanna advertise it but that would be giving personal info away!) HELL EVEN ROME ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 1 SAYS IT SHOULD PRAETORIANS! I THINK IT SAYS SOMEWHERE IN UNIT DESCRIPTION OF PRAETORIAN COHORT IN RTW THAT THEY WERE TRADITIONALLY IN CHRAGE OF GUARDING A GENERAL'S TENT

the only fault is that there is no pre-cohort organisation praetorian unit
my suggestion is that they make a special infantry bodyguard which looks like praetorian and has similar stats but is called like praetorians bodyguard or something and doesnt change
i dont really like the idea of praetorians to guard cuz the guard was only for emperors

You do have this option, but only when you have maxed out the 'Military Building tree'.

Too lazy too. Plus i like it when they do an update, because then i can blame the CA for everything that's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ wrong at that particular moment (like maths tests, microwave blowing up etc...)

I have three interpretations of this
1. You either mean that they are only good against gladiators. (If so, i have no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ idea what you mean about crazy emperors.)
2. While garrisoned, praetorians will cause gladiator population (is there even a thing in the game called gladiator population) to decrease faster.
3.This is some part of roman history which i dont know about, or some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ other game i dont play.

btw, are you English, or American (or even AUSTRALIAN - (the horror, the horror))?

Soz australians, ur okay

Thnx my head of classics (old form tutor) has a poster of the movie ("What we do in life echoes throughtout eternity" or something like that) and it seems pretty awesome. Is it as good as Ben Hur?
