Unable to raise "unlimited" legions.

[kingrex]

Playing Egypt. Great Power. Unlocked "Royal Army". Supposedly I can raise addition legions. I have enough spare money and manpower. The military screen allows only "Stratos of Lower Egypt" and 3 subordinate units (taxis).

I have a "legion/taxis" without a commander.

So my question/plea for help.

1) How do I name a commander for my unled "taxis"?
2) How do I raise a new army (e.g., "Stratos of Upper Egypt") with subordinate units?

Thanks

1) How do I name a commander for my unled "taxis"?

Go to the "legions" tab of the military screen. In the centre-top, you should see an area with the portraits of your current commanders for that legion, and a button with a helmet and a + on it. Hit the button and you'll be allowed to add a commander to the legion. Then you can go to the unled taxis and assign the new commander to it.

You can only have four commanders per legion.

2) How do I raise a new army (e.g., "Stratos of Upper Egypt") with subordinate units?

I'm not sure I'm reading you correctly, but "Royal Army" (the second-to-last levy law) only lets you raise legions in the capital region. It's the last one, the name of which I cannot currently remember, that you need to unlock to raise legions everywhere.

If you do have that last law, then your problem is probably that you have no integrated pops in Upper Egypt to raise. Integrate some cultures.
