    man of the hour occurs whenever there are situations where you fight against the enemy using an army with no general and that unit provides the little extra push needed to win. Probably occurs mostly when you are outnumbered. Also, there has to be no nearby friendly large sized army(bigger than the enemy army). its like they become man of the hour because they saved the faction from a large problem(hence the no nearby large army because if the enemy won, then your faction would have a problem).

    I got mine when the spanairds attacked one of my cities. The odds were about 1:1 if i included the two or three town watches inside the city. My attacking army had a general, and i was trying to free the city from the siege. In the battle, I made sure the garrison made it into the battle just in time and fight a little bit. Then i got my man of the hour.

    Is the code for this changeable? I can't find it.

    Don;t know where the cutoff is but once you get about a 2 generals to 3 cities ration adoption is out of the equation.

    Strange, I thought it was easier to skill up the generals in 1.2...
    maybe those guys should be doing something more useful...

    just be the greeks and put a general and some phalanxes and archers in syracuse and you'll have a silver chevron unit in no time.

    EU, they mean the general's Command ability, not the experience of his bodyguards.
