Whats the best way of acquiring troops? Just walking through the place and gathering mercenaries? ( I seem to loose more troops walking than i can get in towns). Dows throwing loads of money in the army treasure increase troops??

I took a contingent of 1000 troops and sent them to Egypt and the Phoenician cities, then returned in a year with forty-thousand soldiers, lots of horses and elephants. Just what I needed to sack Rome.
