army help

[thaineale]

i have read the civilopedia article and it doesn't make any sense to me... I tried fortifying the leader then seeing if i could change production to an army... I put the leader to increase scientific production and tried to make an army...
how do I create an army?

Scientific leaders can't make armies, only miltary leaders can dop that. To make an army from a military leader you need to put him in a city, then you get a button that'll let you "build army".

FWIW, if you have a scientific leader, don't use him to increase science because that doesn't actually work .


And, Welcome to CFC!!

ok... how are military leaders created? also, by 'put him in a city' do you mean 'have them on the city square'?

 

[Bartleby]

You can get military leaders when elite units wins a battle. The chances are 1/16 on offence and 1/32 on defence. Once you have your first army, and it's won a battle, you can build the Heroic Epic in one of your towns and that increases the chances of getting a leader to 1/12 on offence and 1/24 in defence.

Yes, put him in a city means on the city square.

thank you!
ahem.... one last question...
how do you install mods? i've had my eye on that fallout one for some time...

On the mods issue, your bests bet is probably to look for a thread for that mod, or see if the download includes a "read me" file of some sort.
