unit upgrades

[spikeyperson]

Just wondering what you do when you have multiple obselete units lying around? I get a little frustrated at the price of upgrading those units and rather than disband or lower science to be able to afford an upgrade i sometimes gift them to civs. Ill do this if its a friendly civ at war with a civ posing a threat - and sometimes gift to less than pleased civs who are fighting a loosing battle against a powerful civ that needs to be stopped. It would be great if there was an option to sell units to other civs.

Upgrade or wait untill I can bombard a unit to low enough and kill it with my obsolete unit. (Man I love killing Calvary with Spearman).

Yes, they've really made upgrading a lot more expensive in this game. Quite annoying.

I always keep them, unless I have to pay really high upkeep. At the very least they can delay an enemy onslaught, even if they will lose every battle, the battle atleast has to be fought, locking an enemy unit for a turn.

I upgrade according to promotions. The units with the most promotions get upgraded first.
