You didn't need a level 1 barracks even in the old version.

Back in 3.1, when I deployed a pillaging colony, I rarely built a barracks unless I intended to stay a while, then I build it up to the point that I could produce phalanx. Otherwise, deploy troops from another town to the colony, and they'll garrison, regardless of barracks.

not sure if I read all this wrong or not so... Do I not need a barracks in each of my 5 towns? -- nm - J Oct 22, 16:26 5
- I suppose that's true. Come to think of it, I don't see why I have barracks in each of my towns. - Mop (230 lbs) Oct 22, 16:28 4
  - Wherever I have two colonies side by side, I only keep one barracks between them. nm - Dignan Oct 22, 16:41 2
    - Isn't maintenance costs twice as much unless you have a barracks, if not they are garrisoned at double time rates???? -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 22, 16:52 1
      - I don't think so. nm - Dignan Oct 22, 17:06
  - I considered it, but if an attack comes I want to be able to use my resources to have a beefed up welcome party -- nm - Beaker Oct 22, 16:30
