That could work. But he was the ally. You must be evil.

Standard Archer: 2 1 1
Babylonian Bowman:2 1 2

Standard Knight: 4 3 2
Chinese Rider: 4 4 3

Looks like the differences between the regular unit and the unique unit might increase the more modern the unit is. If this is the case, I think it's good that they need more resources to build.

Percentage wise the older unit actually getting a bigger bonus. The standard unit attributes make up 80% of the Bowman, but the more modern Knight makes up 82% of the Chinese Rider. It would be 90% if there was only one attribute addition.

It appears that Firaxis realized that they had to add extra attributes for more modern unique units to allow them to actually have some added effect to the game. Otherwise a modern UU would have a better chance of not winning a battle compared to an earlier one.
