I don't seem to get any - not even through historical events. I've played a GC with France through 1650, and Spain through 1550, and have gotten none. I'm in 1.09, running on a mac, if that matters. I know there may be some randomly given ones via my naval slider, but shouldn't I at least get Columbus?

Welcome!

Spain should have a lot of leaders before 1550...

Which Mac version do you use? Did you apply last patch for Mac (but I'm not a Mac user, some may say if it is recommended or not). See here.

As you say you have not gotten any through historical events, do you know that there are no events for explorers? They just appear as leaders.

If you think there might be something wrong with you copy of EU2, try starting a game as China. You should start with one explorer. Then, try Portugal. You should get one in 1425.

I'm going to try out Portugal - but the big problem seems to be that I don't get any leaders. Whenever I build an army or a navy, of course, one pops up, but he's always generic and doesn't show up on my 'leaders' list on page whatever of my stats.

You may have a problem with your installation of EU2.

Anyway, building army or navy is not sufficient to get a conquistador or an explorer. There is a special icon for them and they show up according to leaders file for the country or by event.
