Great People

Great People are special characters that give multipliers to your empire. Its the main prestige progression mechanics in CivIdle

Great People Basics

In a run you get TWO (stacking) sets of bonuses from great people: [current great people] + [permanent great people]. Rebirth will convert all current GPs into permanent GPs. If you have a GP as a permanent AND then take them as a current GP in following runs, their effects stack together.

Great people provide boosts and will be added to your permanent collection. When you rebirth, you collect all the Great People you've chosen this run plus extra Great People based on your total Empire Value, these permanent Great People will remain with you.

GPs after the first that go into this permanent pool will contribute towards levelups (each level takes 2 times more GPs to levelup except for Fibonacci).

Acquiring Great People

There is two ways of getting GPs:

- upon entering a new age
-upon reseting with enough Empire Value to get Extra GPs

Entering new age

-You get 1 GP upon entering a new age, from that age. You choose 1 of 3 random from that age (some ages only have 3, so it's not really random)
-You get 1 GP upon entering a new age, from EACH age you've unlocked before in this run. Meaning entering bronze age will only get you 1 bronze GP, but entering iron age
you get 1 iron GP AND 1 bronze GP.

Extra GPs

Additionally, you can get random choices of extra permanent GPs if you rebirth after hitting Empire Value (EV) thresholds. This is NOT necessary to rebirth

You will only get GPs from age up to one higher then the current unlocked one. Meaning you will NOT get Industrial age GPs if you've rebirthed at Bronze age

Each next Great Person will require more EV, and growth is exponential, following this formula: Required Extra GP^3 * 64M

EV required per GP

Extra GP	EV Required	Extra GP	EV Required
1	64M	10	64B
2	512M	11	85.184B
3	1.728B	12	110.592B
4	4.096B	13	140.608B
5	8.000B	14	175.616B
6	13.824B	15	216.000B
7	21.952B	16	262.144B
8	32.768B	17	314.432B
9	46.656B	18	373.248B
10	64.00B	19	438.976B

Upgrading Great People

Permanent Great People can be upgraded by collecting Great People from each run. They will help your empire achieve new heights.

In order to upgrade your GP you need copies of the same GP. Each level will increase bonuses and multipliers that GP gives to the empire and increases further upgrade costs.
