Aren’t Burgundians supposed to be a power spike civ? Right now the only power spike they have are mid Castle Age cavalier and early Imp paladins. Their eco bonus is quite difficult to execute, therefore they don’t really have anything going on in Feudal Age. So what if:
- 50% stable techs starts in Castle Age
- Light Cavalry available in Feudal Age?
The way I understand them is, you really only benefit from the eco bonus if you have extended Feudal Age, as this is the time where you can gain a tech lead over your opponent. If you are aiming for FC you are completely ignoring this bonus, which is bad design.
With this idea Burgundians would have a reason to stay longer in Feudal Age and use their eco bonus and also would have the tools to not die in early game. This is also in line with the “cav tech earlier” theme they have.
(LC in Feudal would be like a Bloodlines scout with -5HP, +2 Attack, but for 150f 50g instead of 150f 100g, roughly same upgrade time).
What do you think?
