John, a technical question Get a bigger avatar today!

I have been researching which technologies trigger changes in the appearance of barbarians in the game, such as the discovery of gunpowder causing peasant revolts to become elephants and archers. I have cataloged them all except for one. I can not figure out which technological discovery causes uprisings of fanatics.

Could you please answer this for me?

Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Just let me dig out my notes, here...

Hmmm...

Okay, the unit in the Fanatics slot is generated out of villages (goody huts) only after someone (any tribe) has discovered the advance with the abbreviation Gue--Guerilla Warfare in the original game--and then only a quarter of the time (roughly one out of every four units generated).

The random generation of barbarian units produces "Fanatics" only on land (not on board ships), and then only after any tribe has discovered Gue and only if the generation point is near one of the player's cities (how near I do not know); then, all of the generated units should be "Fanatics".

Suffering from ads?

Hummm ...

Your answer John does not correspond to my test results. In my test games GUE produces the Fanatic mercenary units (from the huts) and hordes (again from the huts) but I have never gotten Fanatics in an uprising (non-sea borne random appearances) only Partisans. This may be due to the fact that I run my test games with only three or four cities.

Your thoughts?

BTW John, while you have those notes out could you tell us which technologies affect which trade goods?

Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

Partisans (Intelliraptors) are much more likely to come out of uprisings (3 out of 4 units), except when the uprising occurs very near a player's city.

As for the trade goods, I don't have that information. Never did. I just wing it when it comes to naming those...
