You get a lot of free Uhlans throughout the game as Germany, so cost isn't that bad. Despite what this page says about boosting Doppels, I prefer to send cards and spend upgrades on Uhlan. In any AoE game it rarely comes down to needing an extra edge on your infantry; their presence alone is usually enough. If they don't have the counter to Doppels, you win. If they do, your boosted/upgraded Uhlans are good against the counter so you still win.

Doppel/Uhlan is an established strategy for this game. You let your opponent attack into your Doppels, then you box them in from behind with Uhlan--counters nearly everything in this game.
