Looks supremacy to me. And do we know that great generals are in? I thought great persons were out. Perhaps it is concept art for the domination victory screen?

I say Purity for 4 reasons.
1. No cybernetics.
2. Knight-like appearance
3. The Flag/standard.
4. The colour palette of tan+red.

All the above is the image that the Devs gave us:

We mixed this up with the pageantry and regalia of medieval knights and other classic types of warriors.

Makes sense. The helmet reminded me of the supremacy unit helmet, that is why I said supremacy but you could be right.

Btw, I also think that great ppl are not in BE but maybe generals are.
At least that's what I get from this article:

Great people
It will not. It is even logical.

Wait, wait ... I almost forgot about the generals who have given their support to area units.

Could I be reading it wrong? Or maybe the translation is off.

Earlier articles have said functions like those of a great general (or other GPs) would be carried out by satellites.

 

[GoodSarmatian]

Yeah, that's a weird sentence. Of all the great people that disappeared it's easiest to replace generals and admirals with satellites. The tac-net hub (or whatever it's called, the one in the gameplay demo) is basically a khan.

That could be what it is saying...

Great generals have given [away] their ability to support [military units] to area units[satellites]

 

[Eagle Pursuit]

I recall hearing early on that orbital units were taking over the functions of Great People including Generals.

The Polish article said quite clearly that all GPs but generals are out, too.
