Talk:Longboat (Age of Empires II)/@comment-62.224.215.57-20170417014333

There are great unique units like Wagons and mangudai

There are good unique units like Huskarls or Boyars

There are OKAY unique units like Teutonic knights or Tarkans

And then theres the long boat...

It feels like a somewhat redundant unit to me.Its a tiny bit superior to war galleys and is just a teeny tiny bit stronger then your average Galleon..

you pay 10 extra wood and 20 gold for a unit whose only advantages are slightly higher DPS a more quick production a ram attack bonus wich might help and a small speed advantage

They act as a comeback mechanism!..wich can also be done by a few demo ships.

They seem more underwhelming then Elephant Archers to me.Is there any Magic behind them i dont understand?
