We came up with the idea of "Legendary Units" as a new and different way of adding some flavor to the game. In retrospect, it would have been great to have them appear no earlier than the date they came to be, but when I was putting together the file of 101 LU's this only occurred to me deep in the process, and there wasn't time to go back. Since we have a system for assigning start dates to generals and having them appear in the game no earlier than they became generals in the war, we can definitely make it so that LU's have start dates. This, however, would still require a good chunk of research. It also doesn't make as much sense when each side has just 51-52 LU's, since they're hard enough to come by as is without having a date restriction. However, for the expansion pack I'd definitely like to add several dozen more, in which case it would make perfect sense to assign them start dates. Another change -- and again this would require some research -- would be to assign them to historical theaters, so that if you play with random LU's at the start of the game you won't have the Stonewall Brigade randomly assigning to Arkansas.
