Description
This modcomp gives to GGs new function: increase abilities of other units in a stack. Each time any unit win a battle, GG standing on a same plot with it receives XP. He get levels and obtain promotions as an ordinary units do, but its promotions affect all units in his stack. See pictures below for clearness.
Here is an army headed by great general with a few promotions:
Jaguar warrior receives +3% combat strength from great general's promotions:
Commander gets experience when units of his army win battles. he also has a limited control points, this mean that no more than [control points] units will receive commander's boost during a game turn. control points are being restored to their maximum value each next turn.
Commander gets levels and can obtain various promotions increasing your army's strength:
If there are 2 and more GGs on the plot, only one will receive XP (more skilled one). Commanders (Great Generals) have 2 abilities: control points that were mentioned above, and command range. Command range it is a minimal distance between commander and some unit required for unit to take commander's bonuses. Commander starts with zero command range, this mean that he can give boost only to units situated on the same plot with him. Command range can be expanded by taking certain promotions.
In this mod there are 17 commander promotions (but you can easily add more by editing PromotionInfos):
Promotion tree:
There is a possibility to add a wide variety of promotions if you want as far as most of possible abilities are supported by commander promotions.
List of supported abilities:
