Is there any way to limit what units can pick up flags?

[dragonprobably]

Let's say that I only want Spearmen to be able to pick up flags, how would I go about doing this? Do I click check Capture in the rules, or is this impossible?

Yes capture enables this, but Capture is a required flag in the default civ3 editor for the Offense and Defense AI strategies. Also, Capture refers to all units that can be captured.

I can use a hex editor for the strategies. So for the units, I mark both the flag and the flag-carrier with the Capture check, right?

The flag unit does not need, it just needs the unit ability, and the AI strategy.

Okay, so just the flag-carrier?

Yes, should be it.

Got it, thanks.
