Here are the ones I usually play:
1. Darius (Fin/Org) of Portugal works well. coz, Fin boost the gold, Org reduces maintenance costs (if you are of Zululand the ikhanda with courthouses = -70% maintenance!)...and the Portuguese UB boosts gold on water tiles. If you get the Collossus - an extra gold on water tiles as well. And if you play him on Archipelago - well you get my drift. Darius of Sumeria (I think - its the one with the -75% maintenance UB) also is great = funding for super armies.
2. Tokugawa/Boudica of Zululand(fast Impis!)/Mongolia(mounted units!)/Portugal(Archipelago maps, great UB). I might use Jao (Imp/Exp) of Portugal too for quick naval supremacy.
You guys have any other ideas/suggestions about great unrestricted leader combinations?? I enjoy experimenting and want to see what others have come up with. I havent thought up a good one yet for a cultural victory.
