Captured Units don't keep Promotions/Experience #7075

Closed Mileslewis closed 4 years ago

Mileslewis commented 4 years ago

When you capture a unit (Huns UU, Sea Beggars etc) or gain another unit for example from buying a city state as Venice they lose all their promotions/experience.

Could be intentional that it's like this but I think it would be pretty cool if you keep the promotions since it is still technically the same unit.

Could be way too powerful otherwise.

I think Venice units should have the base experience from the CS buildings. And the bought CS should retain all its buildings and population as well, if it doesn't already work that way.

Don't necessarily agree, right now captured units just end up being used as meatshields for your proper troops.

RecursiveVision commented 4 years ago

Hmm, perhaps. But it's intentional nonetheless. I'll let G speak about any balance-related reasons.

Personally I'm not opposed to letting Venice CS units keep promotions/experience - and I'd be in favor of having units gifted to City-States keep them as well.

Units gifted to CS do keep the promotions if they travel there manually.
