There is no point in giving you the option to build additional Churches in the game. In my opinion, it’s better to add a default Surgeon unit for each European civ (a Master Surgeon Card would just increase the unit limit).
But I agree that if any of the current civs were to be able to build an additional Church, it should be Spain. The Germans civ might also have it.
Italians civ and Poles civ could also have such an opportunity.
The Tercio formation was composed of “sleeves” on the sides, which used to have a lot of Musket armed soldiery.
When the main line was holding the enemy in engagement, the “sleeves” would circle about a bit, and then concentrate fire towards the middl, where the main line was in contact with the enemy.
" Formations
Within the tercio, ranks of pikemen assembled into a hollow pike square (cuadro) containing swordsmen – typically with short sword, buckler, and javelins. As firearms rose in prominence, the swordsmen were phased out. The arquebusiers (later, musketeers) were usually split up in several mobile groups called “sleeves” (mangas), typically deployed with one manga at each corner of the cuadro.[citation needed] By virtue of this combined-arms approach, the formation simultaneously enjoyed the staying power of its pike-armed infantry, the ranged firepower of its arquebusiers, and the striking power of its sword-and-buckler men. In addition to its defensive ability to repulse cavalry and other forces along its front, the long-range fire of its arquebusiers could be easily shifted to the flanks, making it versatile in both attack and defense.
Groups of tercios were typically arrayed in dragon-toothed formation: staggered, with the leading edge of one unit level with the trailing edge of the preceding, similar to hedgehog defence. This enabled enfilade lines of fire and somewhat defiladed the army units themselves. Odd units stood forward, alternating with even units stepped back, providing gaps for an unwary enemy to enter and expose its flanks to raking crossfire from the guns of three separate tercios. From their inception, tercio infantry were meant to coordinate with cavalry."
At the very least, the Devs should let Spain and Germany build their church in Age 1. If possible, they could get a second church they can build to have them fare better in Non-TP maps.
I want a Stand Ground stance for the priests, so that they don’t break formation after moving them around. Unction is important for Spain’s late game so it would be nice if your priests didn’t run a muck.
Let churches increase build limit to 3 in age 3 like TCs. In the late game you have to delete your church to get it on the front line to make more priest.
