Scouts need a buff

I dont think they should have any significant combat strength, instead, they should be better at what they are supposed to do. They might actually be weaker imo.

Since they dont fight (or they die), they arent getting exp. Let them get exp for finding CSes, Civs, Huts, barb camps. Let each of those things give some amount (5 or so) exp. That will allow them to get those promotions to actually get movement worthy of a scout.

On top of that, scouts are supposed to be decent at hiding from enemies to prevent combat. Maybe they could be only visible to units that are on adjacent squares or something like that. I like the above suggestion of fortifying for complete invisibility too.
