Use the root_req tech field to implement this.
Managed to figure that out the other day.

Should be possible with scripts.
What's the name of those events? Couldn't find anything in the

Not currently possible. Think it will be hard to do with the current code,
but you can make a workaround - the death of a unique unit can give you a
tech (eg "Genghis Khan's Death") that has that effect.
- Per
That's exactly the workaround Civ2 scenario makers are using. ;)
I've created a thread over at Apolyton.net to host the conversion
project: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=161712
Can't have it on freeciv.org at this stage, since it most certainly
contains Microprose graphics.
