Info: Special Poptypes

[Gandalf Parker]

These are some of the rare defenders that might appear. Surprise commanders and troops that might have equipment on them. They did not appear to be part of the original game. The code diggers are still ironing out the particulars. But so far

A) They do not appear to have a numeric designator so canot easily be used in mod or map commands

B) The random does not seem to be just random. It seems to also involve other factors. Possibly if its a randomly generated map, terrain, era, scales, and indept strength of the game.

Altho you cannot assign them by a poptype number, the game does allow assigning extra province defenders with extra equipment. The SemiRand program does it. And the Chaos games on my server do it.

Such as, to duplicate this one
