Only one leader per elite unit?

[Arrian]

Yeah, I remember that too. No GLs from armies. Which is why I put elites that have generated GLs already in armies if possible.

The discovery of this tidbit (originally from CivFanatics, IIRC) has definitely helped my leader generation. I just completed a game in which I generated 12 great leaders (standard map). I played china (militaristic) and leader #1 was made into an army so I could build the HE. Still, that's a lot of leaders.

Thanks for the info.

For everyone's benefit, it's my understanding that both the upcoming patch and PTW will somehow flag those elite units that have generated a GL.

Thanks Firaxis, btw... by nature, you typically generate GLs at exciting junctures, and although I try, I often forget which damn elite I've gotta pull outta there.

I do the same as Arrian... elite+leaders are mostly put into Armies.
