Laborers/Builder Units
« Topic Start: June 09, 2012, 02:52:59 PM »

Title: Laborers/Builders Units
Summary: Recruitable units quite the opposite of Infantry, Archers, SF and Calvary. they would be builder units who unlike the combat based units excel at civil work, certain  types of take overs, repairing infrastructure of a region which could be open and most reasonably used with Courtiers. Would given Courtiers a boost in their personal abilities of helping a realm in maintenance, while still having to dish out gold weekly like a warrior on their men.
Details: Simply create a new unit type that doesn't lose Morale doing civil work, excel at doing the work and other courtier duties.
Benefits: Balance out as a gold sink for Courtiers to maintain a realm especially in damaged regions where they may recruit a large amount of labor force to help repair a region. Or keep a small fit unit of laborers. would have same options such as training them to be more effective, keeping thier morale high. However combat wise they make good meat shields.
Possible Exploits: Using it to give the appearance of alot of men when moving with a main army. Keeping them in cities would certainly add considerably to their defense making them formidable when they aren't intended for such.
