Seems okay I guess! But LUA. I personally don't like this feauture.. did not like it in Civ 5 and im disappointed they keep going with this option in civ 6.

The problem IMO is that the LUA is just to specific. BUT leadership traits is not a specific matter.
Bring back the traits from civ 4. PHI, CHA, FIN etc. It gives a much "realer" impression of the different traits of a leader. Let the play style of different players leverage the traits. don't "force" a certain play style down the players troth with a specific "trait". It just kills the fun.

How does a LUA force you to play in a certain way? It is merely a bonus that makes certain things easier, and is based on a leader's personality. This is so much better, and makes each civ and each leader unique, unlike the system from Civ IV which sometimes gives you two (or more) different leaders with the exact same traits. It is also too general, because a leader can be, say philosophical, in a number of ways that cannot be compared.
