pread nerfed?

A crossbow comes from the same era too. Classical is Horse Archers(6) Swordsman(6) and Crossbows(6)... I am pretty sure machinery is classical.
There is no classical spear I don't think, but spears can hold out pretty easy.

I don't think any str bonuses should be given in eras as a UU benefit IMO. So, Keshiks would also have to be modified IMO I think. I haven't gotten to Mongolia yet. All in time.

Machinery seems expensive for the classical techs though. Some ways more expensive than early medeival techs.

Machinery is a Medieval Era tech--I checked in the XML to make sure. So, unless they have changed that in the patch, it's still a Medieval Tech. The other classical era units, I believe, are Elephants and Catapults (can someone else verify that?).

My tech tree says Classical for construction. I don't think they would have modified that. I am like 95% sure it is still classical.

The problem (for me) with elephants though, is I rarely see them for some reason. As in ivory. And the computer (IMO) overprices them for a "fair trade". They do that with all strategic resources. Only ivory is also luxury. So probably valued even more than other strategic resources to them. I don't know. The subject of praets interests me though.
