Making steady improvements, IMO. A few new comments.
1) You need some naval units.
2) If you really insist on Peasant Militia and Medieval Infantry, can we give them a new name for more flavor? For example, Maces are very easy to wield by peasants, while a Longsword or Claymore seems to suggest more sophistication. Hence, Peasant Militia --> Maceman, and Medieval Infantry --> Longswordman?
3) Would still like to see the same distinction between Pikeman and Pike Formation, just for contrast sake. We have options here. The latter could be Tercios, for the Spanish mixed musket/pike unit -- kind of how some of the cavalry units alternate between lances and firearms. A more "pure" unit could be a Halberd (Halberdman), which seems to be an evolution on the pike to better deal with regular pikes as well as cavalry. Other alternatives include the Poleaxe, the Awl, and others...
4) Sometimes less is more. With too many units, the combat balance starts to involve too many niches. (Of course, the opposite is also a danger -- too few units, and the uses become too broad.) Are you sure there aren't too many units in the last two eras?
The other comments I have are with regard to the numbers... but we're not there yet. When the comments get nitpicky, that means you're doing a good job.
