Great Spy?

[AriochIV]

Well, spies can promote, so maybe it is named a 'great spy' when a spy is at it's highest promotion?

The names for the three ranks of Spy are: Recruit, Agent, and Special Agent.

One thing is that I know spies are on an interface. I never said that was not the case. As far as there being a great spy, we'll all find out on June 19th. Until we hear more, none of us knows diddly squat.

Both people said that spies were on the interface. But engineers, merchants, and scientists are done through interfaces too and you can still get great people. Considering they build up experience, it's entirely possible for a great spy to be produced based on successful spy missions.

I don't think it's the case because it's the rich getting richer without any real sacrifice (spies are automatically given and don't require diverting resources from other things). I honestly suspect the last two units are UUs.

England is getting an extra spy.

And you can see in this Great Person selection screen that there is no Great Spy.

While I like to believe that settles it, the screenshot is before the Renaissance, so there's no espionage.

Fair enough.

Isn't it weird how the pic of the Great Admiral shows a modern war ship, while every other GP has a representation that looks more ancient-medieval?

Great Generals have a jeep don't they? Maybe just in the modern era?

I'm not talking about their in-game model, that changes depending on the era for all GP (they have 3 or 4 models, don't remember exactly).

But their icons are always ancient-medieval, except for the Great Admiral. It seems weird, at least to me.
