Recently got my first Great General in Gods and Kings and was disappointed to see that starting a Golden Age was not an option. Is this part of the expansion/update? In my first Domination Victory in the vanilla version I was able to steam-roll over all the Civilizations one at a time (which did take a bit of diplomatic finesse) because after winning so many battles against one I would use my new Great General to start a Golden Age and then use the profit to upgrade/rush units with which to decimate my next target.
It reminded me a lot of the cards used in a game of Risk, which I thought was a nice touch to speed up the game, which even so took months because I don't play a lot but when I do I play on huge/marathon. But now I guess the developers decided it made the Great General over-powered?
