How about a new unit gets added that improves morale of the troops (ie. makes them attack faster).
It would be built at the Fortress like the general and spy.
This unit would mostly take the form of a drummer but different nations could have different musical instruments. For example the British would have Bagpipe players to go along with their highlanders, Romans could have hornblowers, the chinese morale units could be represented by propaganda trucks (with foghorns) in later ages. The Russians would have Commisars in later ages.
It would be a cheap unit and not essential for winning victories but would provide an atmosphere to the battlefield. Imagine an Enlightnenment age battle full of smoke, bullets, sound of drummers or battlehorns shrieking.
A different function of the unit could be to make the army operate in step, ie. all your musketeers firing at the same time in salvos.
