It does. One can only get a Great Military Leader while not having a leader. What kind of leader it is does not make a difference, in fact the difference between leaders may only exist in the interface for the human player, for AI there is no difference at all. AI can rush Great Wonders with MGL, the human player cannot.
Once i had the "precarious" situation of having an unused SGL but no buildable great wonder left. When getting the SGL i had already stockpiled eliteunits so i could get some MGL soon after starting a war, but starting this war had to be delayed till the SGL would have been used.![]()
So how did the lottery go?Okay, I just figured out why I'm not getting a Military Great Leader...............Because I already have a (Scientific) Great Leader sitting around, waiting for a usable Great Wonder to become available!!
Wow, that must have been quite an experience! I. Larkin once visited me here in Heidelberg. We talked a bit Civ3 and played a bit of chess...Speaking of years, I visited SirPleb at his home on Vancouver Island, Canada, years ago. A Great Player, A Great Writer, A Swell Guy. So, I raise my glass to you SirPleb and honour you with the ultimate emoji!![]()

Buying a Lottery Ticket is just an expression, meaning if you're having a Lucky Day, you should buy a Lottery Ticket!.........Of course, in my case, the opposite was true. (I.e. I wasn't getting Military Great Leaders because I had a Scientific GL standing by!)......So, NOT a Good Day to buy a Ticket!So how did the lottery go?
Yes, SirPleb and I had a good chat, too. His background is computer programming, like mine. We didn't talk chess (although I represented Young England at Chess in a friendly match against Wales, years ago....And beat the Welsh Champion), but I did try to get him to consider doing consulting IT work for my Financial Services companies in London. We talked about Civ3 Game Of The Month and C3C. If I remember correctly, he wasn't a fan of C3C because the Armies had become too strong. Maybe he needed more of a challenge at Sid Level!??Wow, that must have been quite an experience! I. Larkin once visited me here in Heidelberg. We talked a bit Civ3 and played a bit of chess...![]()
Yes, I remember him writing something about that in one of the GOTM discussions. My background is programming as well: started with Assembler and Fortran...His background is computer programming, like mine.
I think it does not depend on difficulty level.
And I have never seen a ship, a plane or a Hwacha generate an MGL, though Berzerks/Marines from ships can.
The unit floats in the water until another boat can come and pick it upWhat if there's no room on the boat(s)?
Play like a true tough hero and just use the leaders to get wonders.Any good way to nerf Armies? Or just remove them al together, bacause they are mostly a human player crutch.

The leader will float on the water, until another boat comes by to pick him up... There are even screenshots here on this forum showing this...What if there's no room on the boat(s)?
