Admirals
Great Admirals are equivalent to the Great Generals for naval units. Each Great Admiral passively provides +5 Combat Strength and +1 movement to each friendly naval unit within 2 tiles. To maintain this passive effect, Great Admirals must not be "spent" or have their active effect used. This passive effect only extends to units within that Admiral's era and the immediately succeeding era. Great Admiral points are primarily earned through building Harbor districts and Harbor buildings.
