Can you get a leader by fighting barbarians? Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Just wondering, cause I'll beat like 20 of 'em down with an elite warrior or spearman and won't get diddly-squat. Can I get a leader like this or am I wasting my time?

I think so... and, Yes you are wasting your time.

Odds are really low, and yet, they are still odds.

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

again, no you are wasting your time

however, if you are "training" your units to elite status, then its not such a waste. Train your units, then ship them to the front line to maybe produce a leader.

not somthing I would ever do, however, I don't have the patience for that.

A lot of players leave a barb encampment outside their borders for the express purpose of training units. But I rarely do that either. I just don't like the idea of chaos in, or near, my empire.

I will nurse barbarian encampments as long as I can. While your later ancient units won't get much experiance from barbs, you can alwasy build warriors, train them on barbs, and then upgrade them
