MGL SGL Civ3 Complete

[alexman]

It's on my list of things to do, but I warn you that I am Excel iliterate.

I tried to make the input as easy as possible, but if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. After all, your research is the backbone of it and your thread inspired it.

Thanks for the replies. I feel the need to clarify a couple of things tho. First, my current game is mainly just learning what the game will allow and some basic strategies. In a "normal" game I do not play the multiple reloader horsepucky. Second, is to those that have had 3 SGLs at once, are you playing C3 complete? Wondering if anything got tweaked in this latest civ-rape version. Appearance sake it would seem the current belief would be much harder to program. A though I had was the possibility that since there are 2 types of GL, a limit of 2 would be easiest. IE chance of 1st GL 10%, 2nd 5%, 3rd 0%.

Next chance I have to try for a second MGL I might test that theory (keeping in mind my version). Should not be long in my current game, as I am stuck with a single lux and Japan has 3, on the neighboring island, and they are furious with me. :evil grin:

I believe this is incorrect.

If you have a MGL you cannot get another MGL BUT you can get a SGL.

If you have a SGL you can get either a MGL or another SGL.

I've seen screenshots with three SGL's tucked away in a city. Incredible.

Your first statement is correct, and doesn't contradict anything I said. Your second and third statements don't necessarily have anything to do with each other. As I said, you can get another SGL even if you have an MGL. The key is that before an MGL is spawned, the game checks to see if you have a leader of either variety. If you do, the MGL won't be spawned. Before an SGL is spawned, no such check is performed, meaning that you can get an SGL even if you have an MGL, or SGL, already.

A screenshot with three SGL's, which I could provide you from one of my own games, does nothing to support your second statement.

Errm, Solomwi I was quoting cousLee in my post not yours.

He writes: " It is my understanding, that if you have a MGL, you can not get another MGL or SGL".

Well this statement he posted is wrong.

And regarding the 3 SGL's I meant it as a comment only, not to support any of my statements. I've only had one at any given time, that's why I made a surprised remark.

I don't mention you in my post AT ALL. I've read plenty of your posts in the last year to know you're a skilled player.

(I believe you meant that I repeated the content of your prior post)

[Solomwi]

Nah, I just completely misread your post. My bad.

Skilled player, maybe, skilled poster definitely not always.

Still, you were right that the following statement is not correct:

My record is 2 SGL in the same turn

Oops, sorry about that. I thought you could.
