I am Catherine (Scout) on a continent with only the Americans (Warrior). Every goody hut was "The tribe has provided you with experience". At first I was miffed until I noticed he was Level 5. I normally don't war till late so I never qualify for West Point. This was quite a nice treat although it was a slower start with no money. (Large, Noble, Continents, Normal speed)


Any other 'Truth Trumping Fiction' tales?
 
West Point still requires Military Tradition doesn't it? Usually, by the time I've got to Military tradition, I've found the need to expand my borders some anyhow.

Wait, you jumped all the way up to level 5 from a single hut? I didn't know that was possible.

No it was several huts. and I still had to wait until Military Tradition to build West Point. My scout was much faster than the Americans Warrior so I scored a lot of goodie huts and they were all XP's, no gold , no tech, nothing else.
 
So was that at least 6 goodie huts? Let's see .... uhmmm. I ran out of appendages to count, but the odds seem to be about the same as getting struck by lightning twice - on your wedding day - in the snow.

It was a bunch of them. Absolutely amazing. We all need that early gold so I was really miffed at the first one, then the second, OH NO not another one. I ended up locking him in Moscow so Catherine could have her way with her new 'Hero' boy toy.

As she did in real life, if I recall correctly...:lol:
 
I'm curious, does your scout(or any other unit) with the necessary promotions for West Point have to remain alive until you discover Military Tradition, or is just sufficent to have at one point and time had a unit with the necessary promotions although it might have been killed off before you could build West Point? Just curious if I need to protect this unit until I get to MT.

:lol:
You forgot the while chewing gum part
 
I believe you need a live unit with the requisite XP level to build the wonder.
