To get an Upgrade from a General's Purcache

Gufu and I were talking about potential General's Purchases when I had an idea which I thought would fit well, until I realized that it would require having the General's Purchase give an upgrade. I was wondering if there's any way around this? Currently, General's Purchases consist of three things: Support Powers, Prerequisites to Units, and Triggering certain units to be trained as veterans. The code that can be put into units is below.

Code:

Prerequisites
Object =
Science =
End

Code:

Behavior = VeterancyGainCreate ModuleTag_
StartingLevel = VETERAN
ScienceRequired =
End

As of now, I can only think of side stepping that could be a little player-unfriendly: A Unit that requires said science to be built, and upon creation it grants the upgrade. The unit could be finetuned to die and the price could be free, so it would essentially become an 'activate' button. Anyone have any other ideas?

You can make an upgrade (or rather a button) require a science to be built. Check the MOAB. Unfortunately there's no way to make upgrades directly triggered by general's promotion. No that I know of, anyway.
