(3-NS) swapping 'Parthian tactics' and 'logistics' for skirmishers.

... No it's not. As has already been discussed.

this proposal is to change the prerequisite tech for logistics on mounted archer units, but not regular archer units. You can't do that.

Then make a logistics promotion for Skirmishers.

Isn’t it just changing promotion requirements

No, it isn't just as easy as that.
I know how to make promotions for specific units, and I can already see this implementation as a janky one.

If you just change the promotion requirement, you change it for the whole ranged units which not in this scope of the proposal.

Skirmishers borrow the Archer unit combat type, which means that you have to make a new unit combat type, which has its own complication where you must make sure all promotions, buildings, units, and other elements work properly. It's going to be a huge task for a simple promotion implementation. Because unit promotion works on unit combat type level, not unit class type.

I'm not a fan of janky implementation for base VP. If you want to do it properly, you have to do the painstakingly all the steps above.

After some discussion on discord, I’ve realised this is a more complicated change then first thought so I’m revoking my sponsorship

Proposal failed due to lack of sponsorship.
