Leaders starting units BTS

[Dig-Doug]

Hi all.

I have been asked which leaders start with scouts and of course then the rest start with warriors. I just realized that I am not sure and the sevopedia does not have the list just the unique units.

I can't seem to find a list
Does anyone have a link to this?

This is for BTS fully updated.

Thanks in advance.

I think that leaders that start with hunting get a scout to begin with

Praeclarus is right.

Fixed it for you. Leaders don't determine starting techs, civs do.

At monarch, every AI starts with hunting. I can't remember which level it is where they start with a scout as well.

I think on Emperor they get a scout. On Monarch they just get free archers.

Which, amusingly, means that Monarch is the first difficulty where a Quechua rush is better than a warrior rush.

edit: nvm, got you wrong.

Quechua rush is always better than a warrior rush cause of the combat promo they get

Below Monarch, any Aggressive Civ can Warrior rush as well as the Quechua rush. They also start with Combat I. If you decide to build a Barracks first (I generally don't), Aggressive Civs are better than the Inca at warrior rush.

At Monarch, I don't think Quechua rush is easier than, say, Noble. Quechua have the 100% vs. Archers, but Archers have the bonus from being in a city and First Strike. In addition, with the discounts, they can build faster. If the Civ is Protective, it's much easier below Monarch. The difference is, nobody else can warrior rush at all at Monarch.
