Ok, first post updated again.
How about "Rebel Training Camp" as the name for the Failed State's custom barracks?
Sounds good to me ( I was looking for a name )

can we swap this:
NATO (UK)-
- Marines for unique Unit and/or
NATO- SHAPE soldier (replaces infantry)
+25% defense
+1
+2
for this:
Royal Marines
elite light infantry of the Royal Navy
effective in all combat situations, counter terrorism, special ops, high intensity warfare.
start with hill defence
amphib assualt
50% vs gunpowder
25%vs armour.
edit: pretty please? after all the Royal Marines exist, aint never heard of NATO marines
Sheep! You got the mod name wrong in your sig.
You're so last year. lol
sheep21 and I were discussing on yahoo...
since a lot of these countries don't produce their own military hardware, for a lot of the civs that we still need UU ideas for, we should focus as much as possible on local variations to the infantry unit. Every country can drug up some type of infantry, let's try to show what kind. For example, a smaller African civ could have some sort of technicals. Actually that specific example may be more of a (weaker) replacement for a tank, but I hope you get what I'm saying.
The exceptions being countries like Israel with their Merkeva, and North Korea with their nukes. Hope you guys agree.

you would have to play tactically... as a real ethiopian leader would if they wanted to advance there cause.
African armies are poorly trained, poorly led, poorly equipped and poorly disciplined. You would have to rely on what you could buy from outside weapons suppliers.
I do like the idea of reaching a certain point and upgrading to say "disciplined African Infantry" or some such.
Yes, currently African armies are pretty poorly put together, but once again, Maybe I want to make the African Union a World Super Power? (with all those resources, who wouldn't ). I think the best way, is as you stated above, is to start out with poorly trained infantry units (or other variations), and then once they become modernized (maybe researched a certain tech?) they unlock their full UU.
