I've been thinking of ways to improve Germany's lackluster UA; I would like to play them, but I just think they're a little weak.
Some ideas I've had both retain the current UA, but add a bit to it (assuming we stick with the militaristic flavor for their UA, as opposed to pursuing a bonus to production or somesuch):
Furor Teutonicus: Upon defeating a Barbarian unit inside an encampment, there is a 50% chance you earn 25 Gold and they join your side; this unit is maintenance free. Pay 25% less for land unit maintenance. When at war with more than one civilization, melee units receive a 10% combat bonus.
That can be all together, or seperated out if it is too much, but these would make the UA a bit better I think.
I also wish, on a side note, that they would put the Holy Roman Empire back in and give them the Landschnekt (sp?), and try to make Germany reflect its more modern incarnation, retaining the Panzer, but adding something else, perhaps a UB that increases production.
Thoughts? Further suggestions?
