Perhaps the new units are culture specific. Like in AoK, where the Mayans and the Aztecs got special monks (in appearance at least) and eagle warriors, perhaps there are special European units, as well as special Asian units etc. That way the French get the Musketeer and the European UU. Maybe even trait specific units . . . though a generalised "militaristic" unit is a kind of strange idea.
Solver, et al, here is a solution I presented to the "odd" statistics of some the new unique units.

Here's a new Paradigm for us to consider on the Conquistador/Knight question
Firaxis introduces a number of new units in the XP.
One of those new units is the Crusader, back from Civ 2. Fitting somewhere between knight and cavalry.
The Conquistador is a special version of the Crusader.
Firaxis hinted at the possible existance of new, general, units for the civs to use on the Infogrames E3 website, and that would easily explain the new uu's statistics.
Yeah, there could be the crusader in the middle ages, say, 4/3/3 , so that the Spanish Conquistador becomes an upgrade of it.
Still thinking about Keshik. Unless they've changed the Ancient Era dramatically, Kershik is Middle Ages. Look, 4/2/2 unit means that there has to be a 3 defender in that age, and I don't think they added another defended in Ancient Age.

Hmm, the Immortal is 4-2-1 isn't it? I could see the Mongol unit fitting into late antiquity. Perhaps they will add a new unit called the Horse Archer that is 3-2-2 or somethin'.
That would be what people have wanted for a while now: since the UU's can unbalance the game if playing with early UU's: Jaguar Warriors for example.
This won't work since the UU is supposed to give a civ a unique temporary advantage during the game.(Just like in real life!) If there was UU for every age it would defeat the purpose of UU's.

hi ,
not complete , ....some mods have shown that , ....
I'm sad to say that Firaxis seems to have hired some serious feminsit talent for doing the faces. So OK, Khan is ugly - so what? He's supposed to be ugly. But Isabella? She's down there with Liz and Cath.
Geez.

I still think she will be used as a second hottie after Joan for the most socially-retarded fans

Spiff, I don't think Da Skinhead's all that hot either. Still, she's a lightyear better than this. But Cleo still kicks serious butt as numero duo, and Issy ain't gonna change that anytime soon looking like that.
Perhaps the Viking leader will be a hot chick? Scandinavian girls are pretty nice.

rofl, new leader heads for all civs, firaxis will be spewing laughter at that one
Maybe they will, but I am a member of a number of other fan sites, and the desire to have the ability to play more than one leader (regardless of whether you have one male and one female or just 2 leaders) is expressed by a large group of players.
The same goes for the UU for each era.
Do I expect either to be in C3 PTW, probably not. Are there other ways to do this? Yes, modders have made a good start on new Leaderheads and UU's both.
If the 2 mods currently being put out pan out, it will be easier for us to add it in ourselves.
Don't forget another factor that needs to be considered in these guessing games on the new Civs. The fact sheet strongly implies that the UUs for the eight new civs will be divided up such that there will be two new ones in each era.
Hopefully, this question will be resolved before the end of E3.
It would be nice if updates were put out on the link with additional information since the company does know more.
