Yes. I think their stats are pretty trash in my mod already. You can suggest even more rubbish values if you want.

 

They must be less good than the rest and less good than the skirmishers.

And slightly cheaper, less armor, Ivan almost naked and his diet was not very good.

Should they be available since village phase or town? Should I train them from barrack or another building specific for Socii units?

The Roman jav cav is Socii.

We might want a Socii embassy

Socio were Italian at that time. But we could have a barracks for auxiliary troops.

 

Cretan Archers.

Balearic auxiliares

Numidian cavalry.

Sometimes they used Elephants

Love the idea! I will make one tomorrow. Please provide me with a good model, if you are busy then I will make so with a Seleucid barrack. ;)

Ok. Socii barrack. Is there a more Roman name? Like something in Latin?

I am not to any capacity competent with Latin, but I believe 'Castrum Sociis' would be correct, taking the genitive plural form of socii.  That all said, my knowledge of Latin mainly comes from the Life of Brian.

In theory, it should be Castra auxiliorum. However, I don't think it's attested, only references I find online are suspicious latin written blogs and forums.

Right, but a lot of these buildings are just abstractions anyway, so "Castra Auxiliorum" could work in the game's context.
