Peasant

The Peasant is the Chinese worker unit. They are needed to gather the resources to build an army, build structures and otherwise expand your empire. A strong empire has many Peasants. In times of emergency, Peasants are fair fighters, but they are best left to what they do well - gathering resources and constructing buildings.

The player can only have up to 80 Peasants alive at any given time regardless of the population cap status.
