Handcannoneer and upgrades will be effective against ships. Also, drydock are able to fire enemy ships (this idea just got into my mind) with a drydock defences ability.

Coastal defense will be very deadly too.
And inside cities y will be able to recruit citizen cannons (a weak version)

How about hwacha

Korean invention, not very effective against ships

Also how about make a tech like Explosive cannon shells to deal deadly damage to ship and buildings.

Are then historically accuarate?

I searched about it and gthey were used since early 19th century...maybe making a "experimental development" to enable the production of experimental guns and ammunition

How about firework archer?

I've never heard of archers using fireworks

i think he means like those chinese and corean explosive darts and javelins

I saw something in a game archers strapped explosive thingys into their arrows the texture is like a mini firework.

They did exist, but its not something that would fit the game, keep in mind asian kingdoms and dynasties are really not present in the game

I did the Imperial guards pick one

I had a mistake Added feather

Imperiale guarde - Stronger fusiliers

Line infantry

Voltigeurs - Light infantry/skirmisher ver of imperiale guarde.

Chaseurs a cheval - Reconnaissance cavalry/light cavalry

The first old guard will be the grenadier of Napoleon 1 Its ability shoot and throw hand grenades can prove usefull in both ground fights and sieges.

Potsdam giants - gunners that can withstood a ton of punishment And bring it back by lobbing grenades.

impressive quad impressive, nice job

Very nice!
All amazing, but "imperial guarde - line infantry" will need some rework I think

thats pretty cool. i read ur pm, odnt worry.
remember we need first the early game units. its ok to have some napoleonic wars units, but early game units are priority

I mean where can I find soldiers and weapons like the Redshanks so I can make some sprites.

Thanks for the lnik

Fencers didn't fight on the front line, it is and was a sport. I don't think there were whole units of men armed with just fencing blades, maybe they would have them as sidearms

Demi-lancer shouldn't upgrade to lancer, they were different weapons with different uses
