I was thinking about something today that would be fun for the next expansion.
What if all civilizations in the game had two leaders like Greece and India? What if falling into a dark age would automatically change your leader to the alternate, possibly forever? This would give some serious weight to era scores and your choice of leader. If you're playing deity are you sure you want to start with Gorgo instead of Pericles for example? --- Just imagine how much more important loyalty and espionage would become!
Or, maybe your original leader could be brought back. Many cultures have myths about great leaders coming back to save their peoples. This could be triggered by a state emergency and would be based on the civ/leaders strengths. I could see the Zulu getting Shaka back by war, the Koreans bringing back Seondeok by invention etc.
Good idea? How would you make it work?
