How To Get Leader Napoleon Free in Civilization 7 (Civ 7)
Napoleon Bonaparte, a legendary figure in the *Civilization* series, makes a grand return in *Civilization 7* (*Civ 7*). If you're eager to command this iconic leader, you'll need to take a few extra steps to unlock him. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to bring Napoleon into your game, whether you choose his Emperor or Revolutionary Persona.
How to Get Napoleon, Emperor

Unlocking the Emperor Persona for Napoleon in *Civilization 7* is straightforward but requires you to set up a 2K Account. Here’s how you can do it:
- Visit portal.2k.com.
- Log in to your existing account or sign up for a new one.
- Link your 2K Account to the platform you're using by navigating to Connections → Account Overview.
Once you've completed these steps, the Emperor Persona for Napoleon will be available in *Civ 7*. Napoleon, as the Emperor, focuses on commerce and military might, boasting a unique ability called Empereur des Francais. This ability grants a Unique Sanction called Continental System, which reduces the Trade Route limit of the targeted leader to all other leaders by 1, imposes a massive Relationship penalty, and costs more to reject. Additionally, you'll gain +8 Gold per Age for every leader you're Unfriendly or Hostile with, and you can reject Endeavors for free.
Napoleon's Emperor Persona also follows an agenda called the Napoleonic Code. This means he has better relationships with players who have the smallest standing army and worse relationships with those who have the largest standing navy.
How to Get Napoleon, Revolutionary

If the Emperor Persona doesn't suit your strategy, you can unlock Napoleon's Revolutionary Persona. This option is available if you've previously played *Civilization 6*. Follow these steps:
- Link your 2K Account to your game as described above, ensuring you connect both *Civ 6* and *Civ 7*.
- Upon launching *Civ 7*, the Revolutionary Persona for Napoleon will be unlocked.
Note that you don't need to have played *Civ 6* on the same platform as *Civ 7* for this to work.
The Revolutionary Persona for Napoleon focuses on cultural and militaristic strategies, with an ability called La Grande Armee. This ability provides +1 Movement for all Land Units and grants Culture equal to 50% of an enemy unit's Combat Strength when defeated.
Napoleon's Revolutionary Persona follows an agenda called Culture from Conquest. He doesn't favor leaders with numerous alliances but offers a relationship bonus to the player with the highest Culture Per Turn.
With these detailed steps, you're now equipped to unlock and utilize Napoleon in *Civilization 7*, whether you choose to lead as the Emperor or the Revolutionary. Enjoy commanding one of history's most formidable leaders on your journey to victory!
