two quick questions....

[dante alighieri]

I have 2 questions. One is a bit silly, but I'd like to know....

Whats the name of the musical piece that plays when you build the Oracle? I knew I had heard it before, and realized it was in SMAC, when you build one of the Secret Projets. If I recall Correctly, Diedre Skye says the monologue while its playing. (I kind of miss SMAC. Wish they'd make SMAC II)

Second question is, in a current game I decided to play the mongols. (Been watching the History Channel DVD of Barbarians. ) I noticed a group of barbarian spearmen going towards a dutch city. Spearmen? I've never seen barbarian spearmen before. Axemen, yes, even swordsmen but no spearmen. Anyone else ever seen this? Is this something that happens when you play the mongols or something?

Come to think of it, how do barbarians build axemen with no copper or iron?

I don't know the song's name, I just wanted to say that someone was working on a SMAC mod for Civ 4 but it was unfortunately abandoned due to lack of unit models.

Nah, it happens all the time now. I'm not sure how the AI chooses what kind of barbarians it's going to spam, but it always seems to pick one and stick to it now (outside of warriors and archers). Usually when I see barbarian spears I don't see any axes.
