I'm kinda hesitant to do this for the C3c units as some of the info returned won't make sense, but ehre they are nonetheless.
The Byzantines
I'm completely unsure how naval power factors in. If it uses the same formula reg units use (it might, who knows?)
Treime = 30 shields 1/1 3 per health, 12/30 = .4 (ships are going to appear much much weaker for cost than reg units. A trime for 3 times the cost will read the same as a warrior. Hehe, and curraghs will measure as the same strength as a treime I think)
Dromon = 30 2/1 5 per health = .66 per shield.. Which is a huge increase (167% of a reg trieme) and I'm not taking into account the affect f bombard either. Unfortunately I really doubt the number of dromon in a byzantine fleet is going to inflate it's military power much.
The Dutch
Pikeman 1/3. 5 per health, 20/30 .667 / shield (hehe, the trend for defensive units to read very weak while offensive ones very powerful is quite interesting)
Swiss Merc 1/4 6 per health 24/30 = .8
Works out to be 120% the strength of the base unit, about what you'd expect now.
The Hittites
Hehe, this'll be a funny comparison... Fast units always are.
Chariot = 1/1 20 shields, 0.6 per shield
3man chariot = 2/2 30 shields, 6 per health (same as swiss merc actually) .8
133% the stregnth of a reg chariot... Once again, this means next to notta though... A swordsmen for the same price will read 133% the stregnth of the hittite chariot, so if anything the hittite military will read weaker than what it is.
The Incans
Hey, a divide by 0 (scouts read as power level of 0). The incans are going to read even weaker than the aztecs would.
Warrior = 1/1 = 1.2 per sheidl
Chasqui Scout = 1/1 = .6 per shield.
Ya, it's going to read as half a warrior... Pretty much if you have a military of all warriors that reads the same strength as the AI's military of chasqui scouts, be afraid.
The Mayans
Another one that'll be weaker.
Spearman is .8
The javelin thrower = .5333
Hard to determine much from this really. bleh, like I said, c3c civ's would be weird. If a Mayan military consisting of javelin throwers is reading the same strength as your military of warriors, they are producing 3 shields to your 2. Other than that, kinda hard to draw any conclusions.
The Portuguese
Not going to bother. One interesting comment I never knew til now:
Unlike a caravel, if a carrack ends its turn in an Ocean square,it will not sink
The Sumerians
I dislike this unit, but it's also going to read as one of the largest increase
warriors are 1.2
enkidu warriors are 1/2 = 4 per health = 1.6 per shield (I think that might be the highest power to shield ratio in the game)
133% the strength of the base unit... Good increase. A Sumeria civ is going to read much more powerful early on, and in some ways rightfully so.
My reasoning for disliking the unit (and the aztecs and inca units) are because of the exceedingly early golden age they create.
