The Phantom Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Hey everyone,I've finished Dune about 10 times, but this has never happened to me before. Apparently I've somehow managed to lose my Prospector Troop...:(I think they may have been in a sietch when it was attacked or something. Now when I click Find Prospectors, it points me to a different troop with a different face, which is a normal spice-mining troop.The big problem is that I have now run out of spice and without prospectors to prospect the fortresses I conquer or the new sietches I discover, I can't get any more...Any help would be appreciated!Thanks,Lawrence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rymoah Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Mmmmh, this thing has never happened to me during the several times I've finished the game... Only one time I forgot my prospecting troop in a sietch that was then attacked by the Harkonnens, but a vision warned me about it (in particular, about the presence of the prospetors), so I moved them to another sietch. Unfortunately, I don't think there is a way to regain them if they have been captured... Maybe reconquering the fortress, but I'm not sure.Rymoah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Phantom Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 I did already win back that fortress and turn it back into that sietch. But the prospectors are nowhere to be found :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemafakei Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Yep."Be careful Muad'Dib, the prospecting troop might be involved in the fight!"PO3F5IC.VOC (among others)Presumably, they're killed in the fight if you lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vince Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I did already win back that fortress and turn it back into that sietch. But the prospectors are nowhere to be found When the prospectors are in a sietch that happens to be attacked by harkonnen troops they turn red trying to defend the sietch. When you get the vision that they are under attack, you must quickly move them to another place before the few 400 men are gone or captured. Probably the prospectors have turned to soldiers after the attack and you must convert them to spice experts again. Didn`t try this myself, but whenever my "yellow" spice troops are getting attacked they turn to soldiers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
