Yes, and yes.
The latter giving me more problems, due to a bug that a white/grey cloud covered half of the battlefield.
Those two units are probably the only ones that`s only avaible to rebels.
I wonder why you can`t hire zealots as mercenaries.

They're fighting for religion, not money! Right?
I once modded to make Amazon Chariots available to Greeks.
For independence, I thought.Originally Posted by Craterus

Whatever... they're not fighting for YOU!
Judean Zealots are fairly common, hold Judea for a while and you´ll get tired of them soon enough![]()
I haven´t encountered Amazon Chariots, but that´s because I suppose they´re only showing up in that locked-away province Hyperborea, and I simply don´t find it worth the trouble to go there.
I held Judea for 100 years (200 turns) and only encountered them once..
Nope and Yes.
i never say Judaeans because they come with the great jewish revolt late in the game...and i never played that far. though i did mod them into the game and so in that way, i did encounter them
We do not sow.
No and Yes
I really find the Amazon annoying... i still can't beat them... damn i hate the swamp terrain which makes it take over 5 turns to get to the next region...![]()
Judean Zealots can appear whenever Jerusalem revolts. They don't always turn up, but sometimes do.Originally Posted by The Stranger

Gah, the Amazon Chariots gave me so much trouble playing as Parthia...
I took a decent-sized army from Campus Sakae (the starting city in the north) and after bagging a couple of Scythian cities decided to take the Amazon province. First try the game CTD'd as I was making my way into the city.
Second try I autocalced. Lost the entire army, including my general, and the Scythians ended up retaking a city.
I decided to leave the Amazons alone after that little experience.![]()

You see, those Amazon chariots don't have any blades put on their wheels, this makes them terribly inefficient against anything but archers units and low armoured infantry. Taking heavy cav. and charging them into the chariots will decimate them, and HA could deplete their units from afar before you send in your main force.

I've also seen them as a band of brigands into the first turns of my Egyptian campaign.Originally Posted by Craterus

For those who dont know, Hyperboria is located at the very top, very secluded, of modern Russia. There is only one narrow entrance. You can only enter from the west.
Beware though ... those Amazons will hide in the forest. They have been starved of sex for many many years![]()

Eye for an eye ,tooth for a tooth
The chariot province was easy, I used a Scythian merc unit and some other assorted mercs from the area. My general didn't accompany them. I think I also brought two phalanx units. It was difficult, but only because my army was so small.

Judeans look just like desert infantry. Yubtseb elephants can only be obtained by cheating. IIRC you have to type 'oliphaunt' in Rome Shell (Rome Shell can be opened on the campaignmap by pressing the ~ button). They are gaint elephants with a row of Cretan archers on their back.Originally Posted by scorillo

Yubtseb elephants.. what a crazy unit.
They're ok. But they take hours to kill units...
And they can't break wooden walls either.Originally Posted by Craterus

But don't forget the real fun of the Yubseb Elephants: other units who walk near dead ones end up being tossed into the air like they've just stepped onto some anti-gravity device or a giant trampoline. Amazing!

The term Zealot, in Hebrew kanai, means one who is jealous on behalf of God. In modern English it is used to refer to any form of zeal in excess, especially to cases where activism and ambition in relation to an ideology have become excessive to the point of being harmful to others, oneself, and one's own cause. A zealous person is called a zealot.
They are the suicide bombers of RTW?
