Demi-lancer shouldn't upgrade to lancer, they were different weapons with different uses
well, fencer was just an idea. we could add it as a tech "fencing" to improve musketeers meele atack
about demi lancers, at aos a spearmen is upgraded to a halberdier. its just a way to conect both units and make a upgrade line. this is very importatnt, since u want to go on with one unit, it would be better if u can make one similar an then uograde it.

Speaking about french units...i found some information about cranequineer some kind of mounted crossbowmen that later replaced thier crossbows by short arquebus called harquebuisier. This could be an upfrade line

Arbuisier-carbine infantry
What i mean by carbine is a short musket desiggned to be carried on horse back. Its aize is perfect to be reloaded too.

shouldn't dragoons have their muskets? i mean that was their role

also in my opinion the dismounted version should have their horses behind

It was not a musket it was a dragoon. Similar to pistol is a very short firearm.

Well the actual 'dragon' firearm was quite small, and images show sizes from pistol to musket, so I'm not sure. I can change it to make it larger if you want.

The horses wouldn't be brought into combat, but dismounted quite a distance away probably, so I'm not sure about including them in the image.

But they were mostly colonial units, so maybe there could be a special building that allows colonial units to be used, I cant think of a name for it right now lol

Sepoys were used a lot by the East India Company and other Europeans with holdings in India and around there
