I would simply give it the ability to throw an axe every 30 seconds. A new charged attack. Range 5. Vikings were known to throw axes.
Returns to normal melee after that.

I think this could fit better for throwing axeman
But the fact is that people usually, or always, temp to the UU instead of Champions.
For not only the Vikings but also the Aztecs, Japanese, Sicilians and Teutons. Their UUs are roughly just a better infantry than Champions. Even if there is a different niche, it is still insignificant, can’t bring players a enough incentive to switch. People just need to keep spamming UUs, build more Castles, and spam more UUs. The Champions have been used very very rarely.

Give the unit +1 attack for Standard (from 12 to 13 attack) and +2 for Elite (from 14 to 16 attack).
