Besides melee navy and 100hp unit values, how else has combat changed?

You can not garrison archers, so I'm assuming you cannot garrison any ranged units. This can hurt your chances if you invested in the tradition social policy.

Huh. So the idea of using Machine Gunners as garrison units would appear to be out now entirely.

Speaking of which, can anyone comment on the effects of the +1 range promotion on archers upgraded to machine gunners?

Can't garrision archers? Wow I was looking forward to the fix of the archery line but with this change? Please tell me you miswrote that information.

I'm waiting for someone else to confirm this, but I'm confident archers cannot garrison in my game.

You don't have to garrison them. They get the bonus just by being on the same title as the city. You don't have to do that whole garrison dance to get it. You move into the city and shoot.

Ah, that makes more sense.

Presumably though you cannot garrison another unit in the city if you have a ranged unit ready to shoot out of it...
