"You can send out missionaries to help spread your religion, and you can use inquisitors to silence unwanted religions (Firaxis haven't decided on whether to include an achievement if you employ inquisitors with Spain, but it would seem very fitting)."
In one of the articles they mention that all units can now upgrade. The unit tree has no dead ends.
They could just be refering to the new ranged units, but what about the scout?
Will there be new units in the scouting line, like the explorer in civ4.
I wouldn't use past civs as examples, but actually think it through. It's often hard to think of 2 UUs.
Here are my suggestions:
Byzantines: Cataphract and Dromon (Fireship)
Celts: Pictish Warrior and Druid
Carthage: Numidian Mercenary and ??? Quinquereme? Hannibal's Elephants?/Forest Elephants?
Dutch: We know they won't have 2 UU
Mayans: I'm at a loss to think of 2 UU
Huns: I'm not exactly sure of any UU, but I assume they'll have two because of their militarism and lack of infrastructure in their civilization.
While I might be able to get four or even five, the point is that it gets harder and harder the more obscure the civ was as far as their military.
Yep and for the Maya it would just be wierd to have 2 UUs. As a Maya player/enthusiast I would much more prefer to build. Also I normally don't focus on the military of the Maya.
Holkans (Spearman), Cruzobs (Musketmen/Faith Based Unit), Jade Warrior (Warrior/Swordsman/something), Some kind of archer (Archer), and thats pretty much all I can come up with.
Well, I thought of that, but since you're going to want to spend your Great Prophets immediately to found a religion or get new Beliefs, a unique Great Prophet is not very useful.
In Putmalk's Ancient World Mod, the Carthaginians have a Numidian Cavalry while the Quinquireme is available for all civs.
You do have to wonder what the 5 melee ships will be.
I'm no expert on historical weapons, but would the Quinquireme be a melee ship?

It may not be an advantage, but it's not really a disadvantage either as far as I can tell. It would be more accurate. If the barbs lost their ranged galleys, it would hurt them the worst, but if the barb's galleys are the only ranged craft of the Ancient Era, the Ottomans can get those too and have both types in the Ancient Times.

Barbs should have both melee and ranged naval units in my opinion.
What would we call these exactly?
Could we make the Galley the ranged naval units of the Ancient Era and just change the name of the barbarian ship to the generic ship? I mean, we would still have the barbarian flag for identification purposes.
