I'm not sure where this unit could fit into the game. Maybe some kind of Renaissance mod? Ooooh, now that actually does sound rather interesting...
I'm not sure which tech would be needed for this unit. But I was planning to use it in a series of unit upgrades. First there is the ZIOX (the Falxman unit), a unit named after the ZIOX cult members seen in the MST3K experiment, The Final Sacrifice. This unit upgrades to Fanatic. Then that unit can be upgraded to a Cultist.
In my own mod, these units are only employed by the human player and not by any of the AI players. If they were to be employed by an AI player, they would have to replace either the offensive or defensive series of units. (Take your pick.) Good for religious civilizations.
