Default Re: in which occasion will you raise taxes
Hmm, I'm looking at my Doms II Arco home province, and noticing I have a choice to build either:

3 Hoplites for 33 gold
4 Hypaspists for 60 gold
14 Cardaces for 140 gold

At the moment, I have over 400 gold stored, so it's definitely going to be 14 Cardaces - they'll probably do much better capturing neutral provinces than 3 or 4 better troops. If they didn't cost quite as much gold to build and maintain, I'd say they were a reasonable choice on other occasions besides quickly raising many men.
