It's about French UU: Musketeers.
As i already say, this unit should not receive 2 MP but defence and/or city attack bonuses. The Kings of France used them as private body guards and as special assault teams.
They were few but powerfull, as they all came from the "small" but poor nobility of the Realm. As Nobles, they all receive a military education from the age of 6 until they joined the Army.
So, i would rather saw them as:
- combat value: 9 at least, 10 in my opinion.
- cost: increased by 10%. Musketeers came from Nobility...
- free promo: one or more of these ones. City defense , City attack.
- +25% against melee units. They were trained since their youth at hand to hand fight.
Any comments, guys ?

Its a pity no one cared to copy the good suggestions about the Red coads from the main Forum in here.

From what I know of history early cannons would only be effective against packed infantry due to the low velocity and acuracy of the rounds. So a cannon type unit with a 100% bonus against meelee units?
