You know, there should be a way to "upgrade" the national troops. Example regular national swordsman -> veteran national swordsman -> elite national swordsman. Thats 1/2/3 levels. Now, as they reach a new level, they gonna be more powerful and get better equipments. I have no idea, that how could this be implented with the Doms 3. engine. However there is an easier way. Add them as summons maybe. Like Abysia level 2 national troops would be a level 3 fire spell, level 3 national troops would be a level 5 fire spell.
If these things can be modded [I think yes], this is actually a good idea for the modders.
What if they could be recruited just as normal? Say, Pythium could have older and more skilled legionaires. Historically, the Alae Legionaire and Velites were accompanied by more skilled Principes, Hastati and Triarii - which already exist.

I still think all summoned units with high stats should start with one or two stars of experience, and their stats should be lowered accordingly. This would help to make national units actually close the cap instead of getting a very small headstart in the beginning.
