Musket - Rifle - GW Infantry - Infantry - Mech. Pikemen should upgrade into a gunpowder unit line with similar defence bonuses, representing orderly close-ranged fire. They'd be better represented with defence bonuses that diminish with damage and being outflanked, that are doubled against cavalry, and which apply on the attack when buffed by a Great General (this would make sense on Spearmen as well). Pike blocks either defended positions where their flanks were secure - think Battle of Thermopylae - or, with training, overran infantry. PIkes weren't that deadly to cavalry, as the manoeuvrability of mounted units made it a lot easier for them to avoid the deadly frontage. Knights should upgrade into Cavalry and then into Landships. The armoured warhorse was the Tank of it's day. Infantry started carrying Pikes after cavalry developed Lances for charging the Lancer is silly. There's too many instance of units being refitted into egregiously different roles that waste their skills.Ĭhariots should have an upgrade path of harassing ranged mounted units chariot - horse archer - dragoon - tricyclist - gunship. The question is, what do YOU think about that? Should some modders/developers change current Upgrade Division? They are melee, very slow, weak and vulnerable to absolutely everything except from tanks (which are much faster so AT guns can't hunt them anyway).
Especially with lancer units as.ĥ) Lancers have no upgrade for VERY long time and when they finally get it.Ħ). Both units just do other things on the battlefield and have other traits.Ĥ) Civilisations with spearman/pikeman/lancer unique units are screwed. Personally I really don't like it for many reasons:ġ) slow infantry -> fast cavalry -> slow artillery -> fast air recon unit?!Ģ) Lancers were historically WEAK against cavalry as they had lances which were powerful during charges but bad at melee fights against sabres or guns.ģ) Pikemen are infantry while Lancers are cavalry. What do you think about this upgrade path? Spearman upgrades to Pikeman, Pikeman to Lancer, Lancer to Anti Tank Gun, AT Gun to Helicopter.
Spearman upgraded to Pikeman, Pikeman to Musketman, Lancer, Anti Tank Gun and Helicopter were standalone units.
