Great Commandent Mod(BTS 3.19)
This mod was created by isolating the source code of The Great Commandent/The Experienced Commandent from Thomas SG's CCV. I just ported it as a standalone. I have removed the random promotions given because it removes them from the promotion progression when enabled.
--------Details--------
(From CCV) This component changes the leader behaviour to make a leader more individual.
When a Great General is born he gets by random one of the three promotions - leadership, tactics and morale. These promotions are given now to the leader himself and there is no other way to get these promotions! And now these promotions will work for all units (of the same domain) on the same plot! Units will get them if they are on the same plot on gameturn start or when the Great General is born. They get the promotion for one whole turn! So the promotion will stay even if the unit leaves the stack with the leader.
Even if the Great General leads a special unit of a stack his special leader promotion will take effect for the complete stack and not just for his unit! Furthermore the leader will give his 10 free XP just to the unit he is going to lead.
But while these three promotions are exclusive for Great Generals all units with a Commander (this is now for almost all units a valid promotion!) can get now nine new promotions. The commander can get these new promotions! Like the unit itself the commander collects experience points through combat. But the commander promotions work different. They are not given to the stack they are just working for this one unit.
And the best at the end -> the AI knows how to use it!!!
-----XML Additions:----
CIV4IUnitInfos.xml
<bOnlyGreatLeaderPromotion> - This tag can be used to make a promotion only available upon attaching to a unit. All promotions with this tag are cycled through and 1 is randomly given to the Great General Unit. All units in the stack then gain this promotion when on the same tile as the GG Unit.
<bOnlyLeaderPromotion> -This tag makes a promotion only available to the Great General and not even the unit it commands.
