If Gunpowder were made an unresearchable advance, but techs that require Gunpowder were given to all players at the start, would the units to the left of the musketman slot be made obsolete.

So no players have gunpowder made no different

What if the techs with Gunpowder as Prequistites were changed to have other techs as prequistites. Would the units then still be replaced

Hmmm.... I think the recent discussion of this came to a confusing conclusion.... So far, (contrary to what I thought before) I believe that it is the musketeer unit slot alone that can be causing problems, if this unit has a superior defence score, in which case lesser units will be disregarded, despite other qualities. I think the gunpowder tech is more or less irrelevant, despite what was said in the other thread on this subject.
Anyone feel confident enough to clarify further?

Then it must be a case of both factors working together, because it only takes effect, when the unit in the musketeer slot becomes available, right?
As I mentioned earlier, the gunpowder advance is the TRIGGER to activate the musketeer slot effect.
If gunpowder is not discovered by anyone - it doesn't matter what is in the musketeer slot, there will be no effect.
If there the musketeer slot is empty, there is of course no effect irrespective of whether gunpowder has been developed.
There. I hope that makes everything crystal clear. (except I am not clear what happens if only AAA discovers gunpowder but it is only BBB who can build the musketeer unit, it doesn't really matter, just always remove gunpowder from the tech tree).
As for the Knight effect, there is NO trigger advance so the effect begins as soon as the unit in the Knight slot is buidable.
