I have researched all the chains in the military technology tree and yet i still cannot build the workshop chain buildings such as the armourer or weaponsmith, but i can build the siege engineers workshop? I own all of the provinces with marble and yet I cannot build a collusseum in Rome. I have all of the tech tree prereqs researched.

Recommend putting a champion in this army (with the skills mentioned in the champion section) to get extra veterancy and have the army almost unstoppable. This is just a qucik run down of what i believe to be the best skills for each agent, and a couple of good tips on how to use them.

All agents start off with a random skill, some are better than others, it just depends on what you prefer to do with them. I always put them in armies, you can only have 15 armies and you can only get 15 agents (5 of each) so i just prefer to put them in the army. Always buy the last agent in the list, he's the youngest and will live longer. Remember ANY agent actions will have a negitive affect on diplomicy with that faction and his friends/allies.other factions my cancel there trade or non-agression pact with you. Having any agent in your army provides protection against any enemy agent actions. CHAMPIONI always go for military training, which allows your armies to rank up without having to battle. So if an army is just guarding a region or province for a number of turns and not seeing much action, it will still rank up.

Having a Champion in your army also gives your general extra zealSkillsLevel 1 skill is randomLevel 2 choose ChampionLevel 3 choose WarfareLevel 4 choose MilitancyLevel 5 upgrade ChampionLevel 6 upgrade MilitancyLevel 7 upgrade ChampionLevel 8 upgrade MilitancyThen upgrade your first random skill twice (the one that comes with the agent)If you choose to do this for your Champions your army will be on 1 gold chevron by the time the agent dies. (Thats without even having a single battle with the army)If you put a Champion infront of a bridge an enemy army can not pass, it comes in pretty handy if you need to buy yourself sometime. DIGNITARYI go for Military Administration, this allows to to have a full army for half the cost. This is very handy for the early game not only does it reduce the cost of the army substantionally but it also improves your generals authority.

If you then put the army in a region you'll get a better tax rate with your dignitary in the army.SkillsLevel 1 Skill is RandomLevel 2 DignitaryLevel 3 PhilosophyLevel 4 Martial PhilosophyLevel 5 PoliticsLevel 6 upgrade Martial PhilosophyLevel 7 upgrade PoliticsLevel 8 upgrade Martial PhilosophyThen upgrade your first random skill twiceYou can make the army cost even less if you also upgrade your general's skills with Master Tactician and AdministrationIve always got dignitarys, they very handy to have. If not in your army then just put them in a province and click the administration button and they will lower your corruption tax across the whole empire.

Civil war is a pain in the ♥♥♥♥. Especially in the emperor editionIf or when a civil war comes you will lose half of your territory to the opposing houses.

Its a total ♥♥♥♥♥ especially because most of the territories you lose are scattered all over your empire. Also any army which is lead by a general from the 'other house' also turns against you.Gravitas is what civil war depends on, if your conquering provinces or defeating other armies with a general from the 'other houses' thier gravitas will go up. The higher the gravitas of the 'other houses' the more likely a civil war will come.How to prevent a civil war.1.

Use as many generals from your faction (house) first.2. If you have the funds to stop an 'adoption' do it.3. When you have some funds spare, 'secure promotion' as many times as you can for your generals.4.

Rome 2 Tech Tree Guide

If you have spare funds 'adopt' a general from the 'other houses' that have high gravitas.How to stop a civil war.If a civil war is iminent you will probally own half the map and have alot of funds, so all you do is adopt EVERY general from the 'other houses' (you can adopt all but 1) then once all generals are in your families house just keep assassinating the final general in the 'other house' you cant kill him but you can wound him enough for the civil war never to take place.

But bare in mind if you build the auxiliary barracks here you will get auxiliaries native to that part of the world.NEVER enslave.ALWAYS occupy, slavery gets you some coin but lowers your public order over the entire empire substantionally. This was a great campaign, i thought it was one of the best. I just took the whole of the British Isles then just sat back for around 40 turns researching things. Then just sent elite armies out one after another taking settlement after settlement. I went everywhere at once, if someone was in my way i declared war and killed them, i made no allies and just never stopped till my armies reached Egypt, Crimeia and Turkey.

I traded with alot of people all the way through the campaign but soon as i came across them, i declared war and killed them.Again you should only build armys from 1 Province.

You start in poor sted with the Arverni, one minor settlement. First off i reseached a couple of military technologies and built a pathetic army of warband and took Bibracte, then went for Burdigala. Lemonum are your allies at the start but you need thier settlement, i waited till thier army left then attacked, (all is fair in war).

Then i went for Namnetum and Cenabum securing me my 2nd province with just one army. After that its upto you where and how you go, i made allies with the Iceni, Nervii and the German Confediration then went for Spain with 2 armies (the one i started with and a new one with chosen swordsmen). Once Spain was conquered i built another 2 armies and went for Rome, making afew more allies on the way (all barbarians factions) while my armies moved through Africa and Greece.I never sacked a single settlement till i was all the way over in Turkey and Egypt. Then once there i just laid siege, attacked, sacked and sieged again straight away then occupied. Then just destroyed all the buildings and rebuit from scratch. I did have around 10 armies on the front lines so i sacked almost 10 cites per 4 turns, left the armies in the cities till the first of everything was built then moved on.In the provience 'AQUITANIA' this was the only province i built troops.so you should build.BURDIGALA.

You start off at war with Boii, so straight away i built an army and killed them, taking thier settlement. Then turned my attention on taking the home province Suebia, making short work of Ascaucalis and Rhougion all within about 10 turns. Then i had a problem getting to Alabu while leaving my other regions unmanned.

I ended up taking a risk and just going for it, hoping to take the settlement and get back before anything major happened. Luckily the risk paid off, i got there and back before any rebellion happend or getting attacked by others. I then finished of the Hercynia region and just sat back for about 30 turns, just researching afew more military technologies. Then decided to go west and take france, allied with the Iceni then sent the army towards rome and sacked the entire peninsula. With the funds i built more armies and just spread through the rest of the eastern barbarians like a virus and stopped at the crimeia. Built 4 more armies and sent them into Spain then through Africa then sent 2 armies to stop just outside Libya and sent the other 2 back up through rome this time taking the cities for myself.In the provience ' SUEBIA' this is the only province i built troops from.so i built.LUPFURDUM.

This was slightly more difficult than the last few campaigns since your 4 regions start of in 4 different provinces.I began buy building an army and sending it straight to spain (because africa and manturia are your allies at the start of the game and the romans were busy with the etruscans)After 30+ turns i still wasnt making much money and the romans declared war (i assume they always will once they have killed the etruscans. So be cautious) I managed to build another army with the pence i had left in my treasury, brought the army back from spain and sent both armies to rome and just totaled the italian peninsula.

I went for economic victory with Macedon so the start of the guide might sound weird/pointless to the people who go for military victory, but the rest of the guide is good for all 3 victory conditions./bI started off by getting the achivement, by making the 3 greek states, my client states. Was a little tough because everyone hates epuris and there wiped out in about 7 turns, also after 9-10 turns sparta and athens become defensive allies, so when you attack sparta athens comes to there aid. So i made an army straight away and only bought 2 buildings (both shrines one in each region).

I sent the the army straight for sparta, then turned onto epuris and killed them, as athens is already a client state i got the achivement at the end of the turn. But not owning a complete province your money is low, so after i got the achivement i decided to re-attack epuris to wipe them out so i could own the full Macedonia province. Then turned on the barbarians to the north and to the west taking 4 more provinces. Where you go from here is upto you, i made allies and trade with all factions in turkey and the western barbaians then sent armies north east to the balkins and all the way to the caspian sea, also went to conquer egypt cause no matter what you do.they hate you. (and you need to take arabia flex for economic victory) I sent my spy all the way through the barbarian tribes, africa and then east to persia etc, trading with everyone i could.

Then just killed anyone that wouldnt trade with me.You want to take the province THRACIA as this has 4 regions for you to build military buildings and just build fleets in PELLASo in THRACIA you should build.PULPUDEVA.'

Consecrated Ground' (upgrade to Sacred Grove)'Homestead' (upgrade to farm)'Port' (upgrade to Harbour).(if it has a port)Economic victory is a ballache i wont be doing that again in a hurry, to much effort trying to keep different factions happy to keep the trade. Its much easier to just kill everyone in your way. This was an easy campaign, completed the entire map in 207 turns.

It was easy because everyone in the west loves you and everyone in the east hates you. So you just send all armies east and make military allies with everyone in the west, i was allied with Sparta, Athens, Macedon, Rhodes, Egypt and half a dozen others in the west. (basically everyone in greece.but not barbarians)Money was never an issuse even from the start, just send your spy around the whole mediteranian sea EVERYONE will trade with youSo from the start i made 2 full 'rubbish' armies and conquered Galltia et Cappadocia, Cilcia (but not Cyprus) and Syria. (still didnt build any military buildings) built up the provinces a little, then turned on 2 allies (the ones holding the other 2 regions in Bithnyia et pontus) Then began building military buildings there, i must have ended over 20 turns just constructing building in all regions.I was able to conquer all these place with just the 2 poor armies because i was going on the diplomicy tab and requesting all allies to attack a certain region. Came in very handy. Of course afew allies beat me to the city late on in other provinces but once i conquered the eastern part of the map, on the way back i just declared war on the allies that took the province.In the provience 'BITHNYIA ET PONTUS' or 'GALITIA ET CAPPADOCIA' you can choose which ever you prefer to build troops.

Consecrated Ground' (upgrade to Sacred Grove)'Homestead' (upgrade to farm)'Port' (upgrade to Harbour).(if it has a port)When you have done a Hellenistic faction once there all quite similar apart from Seleucid. This was very tricky to sort out at the start, but what i did was eradicate Epuris straight away, get the 2 settlements before Macadon. Then build a second army in sparta and leave it there while i tried to kill Macadonia, it was a stuggle and i was streached very thin but managed it, while i was killing them, Athens attacked me (cause they were allies with macadon) so i used the second army to destroy Athens then sent them straight to crete. It was hard work specially only been able to buy 2 poor armies, but if you can manage it then your on for a winner. Killing these three factions allowed me to have the 2 full provinces in Greece to build all my barrack etc. Then make allies and trade with the east and go and attack the barbarians next.

Or vice versa which ever is better for you.Having only 3 settlements in each of the 2 provinces was another chore trying to build troops and get the population under control, so you have so split your military buildings across both provinces.In HELLAS i built.SPARTA.

This was a very easy campaign specially with you already starting with an entire province. With these building you'll run out of food almost straight away so first thing you do is conquer Libya and build your farms there. I stopped in Libya and left 2 armies just sat there for about 60 turns just guarding the 2 cities on the western front and then sent everything else i built to the east. You can by all means carry on, (but i was trying to do the achievement where you declare war on every faction in the game soon as you meet them) but like i said i took everything eastwards. Other than that, everyone will trade and be your friend, so enjoy the campaign.In the provience ' AEGYPTUS' you can build alot of military buildings.ALEXANDRIA.'

Well where to start.from the beginning i created one army and took the province Parthia, from there i ended afew turns and became rich. Then attacked everything to the north and east of me, but never went for the nomads in Scythia. (they had too many archers for my lame spearmen) After chacing the Bactrians around in circles i finally killed eveything to the east and sorted out all the public order, i wasnt at war with anyone else so i got afew trade deals and ended around 15 turns and became even richer, the money was pooring in.

I created a couple of really good armies (cause i just researched alot of military items while i was ending turns) then attacked places on the southen cost so i could get trade with places like egypt and sent a spy round the whole of the mediterainian, the atlantic, english channel and north sea areas in preperation for when i got to the mediterainian myself, i could just trade with everyone. After getting there and securing all the trades, i had no enemies again so i ended about 30 turns just building and researching things. Then created awesome elite armies and just killed everyone and everything in my path. Once i got to Greece i needed more armies, so a created a forward barracks in Thracia and built up the rest of my 16 armies (3 of them had to be mercenries in order to win by military victory)In the provience ' PARTHIA'HACATOMPYLOS.'
