Negative bonus for civs

Britons stable is not a meme. That’s not true.

People underestimate it because it’s objectively not very good but at least it can get the job done if you’re in a situation where cav is required. But if it’s crippled even more by stupid maluses it will be just bad.

yeah they still get cavalier, so even without bloodlines its a fairly tanky unit that can easily kill rams and skirms (2 of the main counters to britons) and cost wise its cheaper to tech cavalier than it is to tech blood lines + 2 melee attack and you get the same result

and more number crunching… the briton cavalier is tankier vs archers than a mongol cavalier (bloodlines but no armour)30 vs 24 arb shots. they arent top notch by a long shot, but they sure can get the job done, like having a frank or celt skirm, they still counter the same units

I got an idea. Whenever a civ’s castle has a strong bonus, they also have 1 less range to compensate. How about we give this negative bonus to, idk, Franks and Celts for instance?

franks and celts do not have bracer, this negative bonus already exists.

that was his point
