Change Details

The main point that I never liked in these two techs is the fact that a unit loses its power to collect resources. An elite unit is capable of losing 75% of its collection capacity. It seems to me more like a penalty than a bonus. I am not sure if it is to balance the fact that the units get stronger or some historical sense like: more fights, less farmer you are. Well my proposal is to remove this penalty. Decrease the health gain to 10%. (20% health + 1 armour seems op) Also remove the movement bonus, which makes no sense since the units gain an armor bonus, which makes heavier (Javelin very fast on elite, seems a horse). For example, this changes should slightly decrease the strength of Ptolemies with rush of Hero + spam javelins + tech advanced. Also decrease the penalty for a good rush at the start of the game. I am aware that this will make Skiritas (sparta) very powerful, but I have some patches on the way to balance units. @Nescio did something like the cavalry, removing his speed bonus gain.
