Scenario Makers' Trivia

What happens when you research a tech which makes your Manhattan Project obsolete?

 

[Henrik]

The manhatan projects wont work if built after this, but I dont know what happens if it is allready built, I believe this was used in Crisis of the New world order though...

 

[Morten Blaabjerg]

You can no longer build nukes? You can no longer build the unit in the nuke slot?

 

[kobayashi]

Actually I don't know the answer. Hopefully someone does.

Another question is - which tech allows settler units to build irrigation even when they are not next to a source of water?

 

[Morten Blaabjerg]

Those are pretty tough questions! You can't honestly think we'll go and look it up, can you?

Hmmm... My guess would be refrigeration, or perhaps explosives. Any case I don't think that one is much documented.

I don't believe there is such tech. The only thing that comes close is the cheat that automated settlers can irrigate when not next to water.

quite right.

What happens when you rename Future Tech (but still leave it at the end of the tree)?

 

[Morten Blaabjerg]

Absolutely nothing, except that they will always be numbered, just like Future Tech.

Lets say you have an event where if British infantry gets destroyed, a new one belonging to the British is created in London. Now lets say the British infantry being destroyed also happens to be in London.

(Assume the same torpedo perpetuation routine for Axis in ZWK.)

1. Does that make London invincible?

2. Does having 2 infantry in London to start off with make any difference?

 

[Stormbringer]

i think it does make London invincible, but i don't see how puting more than one infantry will effect it.

it was used in the crises of the new world order scenario, and I think you can't build any nukes after manhattan is obsolete

if the infantry is the last one, MAYBE the enemy will take the city before the next infantry can be spawned. Then there will be no next infantry (assuming no alternative spawning points were indicated).

 

[Stormbringer]

i don't think so
I think it was used in one of the WW1 scenarios to make some territorry unbeatable before you take a city which deaktivates the event by killing the units.

you can't build units with more than 80 attack points, too.

Which are the event triggers where 'anybody' becomes only the first tribe which triggered the event

eg. germans trigger an event and when english do the same thing nothing happens.


and which are the triggers where 'anybody' is really anybody?

eg. germans trigger an event and when english do the same thing they can have the same result.

 

[Morten Blaabjerg]

In any case I'd like to know. And I'm a bit curious if this bug is version-specific? -i.e. the same for FW and MGE?

 

[Henrik]

Basicly only the negotiation event
However, for one time "received technology" triggers, the anybody will be anybody (as only the civ that first triggers it will trigger it at all)

 

[Morten Blaabjerg]

New question : Which techs are the trigger techs for partisans, and which other factors determine if, when and how many partisans will appear when taking an enemy city?

 

[kobayashi]

that's easy.

Naval Technology and KV-1
