Military Units and Upgrades
Below is a list of all military units along with upgrades. They're grouped by approximate time period, but if you have the technology to build them earlier, feel free. This is also the thread you should use to suggest new units or upgrades.
Military Units- Military Units:
- EARLY LAND UNITS - 1800:
- Infantry:
- Standard Infantry:
#Standard Infantry#
Quantity: 1000 Soldiers
Attack: 1
Health: 2
Armour: 0
Manoeuvrability: 2
MP: 1
No Traits
Your average grunt. Alright training, alright equipment, not good at very much.
Requirements: None
- Light Infantry:
#Light Infantry#
Quantity: 500
Attack: 2
Health: 1
Armour: 0
Manoeuvrability: 2
MP: 2
Skirmishers - During Round One, attacks first when attacking other units.
Hidable - Can Hide
Skirmishers, used to quickly take out units at the start of the battle.
Becomes less useful later on in the battle, however.

- Cavalry:
- Light Cavalry:
#Light Cavalry#
Quantity: 100 Horsemen
Attack: 1
Health: 2
Armour: 0
Manoeuvrability: 4

Attack: 2
Health: 3
Armour: 0
Manoeuvrability: 3
MP: 3
Anti-Cavalry - Attacks first when attacking Cavalry
Horsemen designed to take out enemy cavalry units. Not as good against infantry and more expensive than light cavalry, but still effective.

- Artillery:
#Artillery#
Quantity: 20 pieces
Attack: 1
Health: 1
Armour: 0
Manoeuvrability: 1
MP: 3

Slow moving, long range cannons that should be kept well back from the enemy.
The main draw of these is the Long Ranged trait, which can turn the tide of a battle.

- Light Ship:
#Light Ship#
Quantity: 1 Ship
Attack: 3
Health: 2
Armour: 0

#Heavy Ship#
Quantity: 1 Ship
Attack: 3
Health: 4
Armour: 1
Manoeuvrability: 2

A large ship with a lot of cannons. Heavy and slow, this unit is best suited for protecting other ships.

Attack: 2
Health: 1

A ship with a large, long-ranged, front-facing gun for hitting other ships from afar. Few defensive armaments, so not very useful unless kept well back from enemy units.

Health: 1
Armour: 0
Manoeuvrability: 3

Vulnerable - This unit always attacks second when fighting a unit without Vulnerable.
Filled up with explosives and designed to go straight towards an enemy ship and blow itself up, hopefully taking the other ship with it. Very vulnerable.

Suggestions:
- Shrapnel shots:
- 0.5 MP
+1 Attack against unarmored targets that aren't entrenched
Requires Some Tech in the Same Period of Trench Warfare
(IMHO it will help model the phasing out of cavalry in the 1890-1910 period and trench warfare)
- Improved rangefinders (ships):
- 0.5 MP
+1 Manouverabilty while in combat
Requires Rifled Artillery (or another ad hoc tech)
(Since the ship has better rangefinders, they'll take less time to range their guns on the target)
- Coal collier (ships):
- 1.5 MP
+50% to ship movement range
Requires Steam Warships
(Coaling ships to extend the range of steamers, avoiding the need to enter a port to replenish the fuel magazines)
- Cavalry carabines:
- 1 MP
+1 Movement while in combat OR +1 to Attack
(Dunno which one would be better gameplaywise. You can see carabines as a way to kill people from the distance, or as a way to kill more people. Dunno.)

Cavalry are already phased out partly by bayonets, and entirely by Trench Warfare.
MNV should never change for any unit, because that messes with pairings. Make it a trait instead.
Should be cheaper, but sure.
Already a thing, light cavalry are considered to have firearms.

- Rangefinding equipment (Ships):
- Rangefinding equipment: 1 MP
Adds trait "Shot ranging able". If paired with an unit with manouverability of +1 or less without the "Shot ranging able" trait, this unit will attack first.
Requires Rifled Artillery
- Ram (ships):
- Ram: 0.5 MP
Adds trait "Steam ram". At the start of the round this unit can try and ram an enemy unit with equal or less manouverability dealing 4 damage. While using the ability, the unit gains the trait "Vulnerable".
Requires Steam Warships
