Look at this screenshot from the Jeuxvideo preview:

In the right menu, the 9th one from the top says "Great Generals". What on earth is that???

Great people?

Do we know anything about them? I can't remember reading about this anywhere..

They probably arise within the population when you've won enough battles like in civ 4 right? Maybe some of the military founding fathers we don't know about has some bonus related to this?

That is my impression too.

There is a Great General Bar in the Military Advisor Screen.

Look at the bottom line of this screenshot,

there are Great Generals involved as well. Seems like the are included (or not "modded out" at this point?) :mischief:

Yep, I just noticed the screenshot!

So it seems this will be a part of the final version. Great :D

I hope great explorers as well are added/implemented or at least explorers are randomly named (as explorers).
