[Mrkoekie]

Could it maby be from a meteor you found? Otherwise.. odd.

 

[Josephias]

Heathen conversion maybe? But does not look like you have many holy sites around.

 

[MrRadar]

Your Boudica seduced a barb swordsman?

 

[Futumch]

Lucky dip! Find the meteor, get a prize!

That's my guess, at any rate. Same as Mrkoekie suggested above.

Or tribal village? I've noticed that I've been getting different rewards as of late
I always used to get either a eureka/inspiration, gold, faith or maybe a scout, now I'm getting pops, settlers and so forth. It's not impossible that you got a swordsman.

It is impossible because goody huts do not provide units, except Scouts. You just seem to have been getting unlucky.

It's strange. It can't be a meteorite (I think) because that only provides cavalry units?

If they don't ever provide units, then it can't just be a case of being unlucky, either they provide units, or they don't. And I've definitely gotten units from them before, while scouts are by far the most common, I've gotten settlers and traders from them as well. The last game I got a trader, very conveniently because I was struggling for gold and unusually had a couple of free trade routes.

He means military units, which scouts are the only option available.

 

[Bibor]

barb conversion is the only way i know of

 

[Arithmion]

Was he levied from a city state?

Ding Ding. Correct answer!

Alex is gone now, Gorgo is on her way. Boy Gorgo was snowballing though, but the time I got to her she had Knights...

 

[The googles do nothing]

You ran out of togas?

 

[Equilin]

CS levied troops have clock timer on them so this isn't it

 

[AriochIV]

Yeah, it would have to be a barbarian conversion (Boudica or an Apostle). Meteors only award cavalry, and levied units have a timer on them.
