New units and UU post-game discussion.

[onodera]

Hello.
So far I have only played one game with the Dutch and am in early Industrial era.

I quite liked the East Indiaman. Most of my combat experience comes from an overseas war with Ragnar and the EI proved to be a great troop delivery unit. It's strong enough to successfully organise and sustain a naval blockade after he unloads the troops. If he could bombard like Frigate it'd be a complete no-brainer.
It's also great for Spy delivery during those peace treaties.

Privateer is also a nice unit. During my several 10-turn ceasefires with Ragnar I could still blockade him and sink his transports. I haven't used it against my good friends and neighbours yet.

Looking forward to my mobile artillery.

Is the Dutch Dike as good as it sounds?

Without having the benefit of actually having played the game yet, the Dutch UU and UB sound pretty darn neat -- with the caveat that a bad starting location may take a lot of that advantage away.
