D'Tesh and disease events

[Tsathoggua]

I'm really enjoying the D'Tesh so far (130 turns into an Epic-paced game).

I understand they're being reworked a fair bit in 1.3, but I wanted to make sure that one of those changes included *immunity* to losing population due to the wasting disease random event.

I've suffered this twice now in the one game, both times in my capital. I guess I can understand it happening when no Binding Stones are present, but this also happened after I had built one in my capital, which, given that it totally eliminates sickness in its city, makes a whole lot of no sense.

Just throwing that out there in case it remains a relevant problem in 1.3. At the very least, Binding Stones should prevent this event from coming up at all. Of course, apologies if this appeared in some other thread.

As a side note: what controls the attribute a Minor leader can take on? I was offered Aggressive as Thanatos, which works for me, but I wasn't sure if I should hold out for something else, or indeed if I even could.

I was under the impression that undead are immune to disease, so the wasting disease event should no effect ever. Unhealth should also not have any effect, as undead don't need to eat, and again are immune to disease.

They should probably just be eligible for the Scion response that scoffs at disease. In any case, Valkrionn has said he's taking a look at events, and this one specifically.

The D'tesh response for that event is actually already in, just not enabled, I brought it up not too far back in I think the bug thread, it is not hard to fix locally until 1.3 materializes.

Edit: er it's actually a bit far back now, page.. 107, or so:
Change :

CIV4EventTriggerInfos.xml:17867
<Events>
                <Event>EVENT_SICKNESS_1</Event>
                <Event>EVENT_SICKNESS_2</Event>
                <Event>EVENT_SICKNESS_SCIONS</Event>	
</Events>

They have unique options for all those events, as Nirek stated; There is just a ridiculous bug atm in that their choices are not added to the event itself.

As for the Emergent Leader question... Check this thread.
