The Manchu Infantry are the Chinese unique Modern Infantry of the Modern Age that replaces the standard Infantry.
Overview[]
Compared to the Infantry, the Manchu Infantry have +1 attack range and +1 line of sight, as well as costing -10 Timber, and do -5% damage against Light Cavalry and Heavy Cavalry, although this is usually no longer relevant by the time they are available.
Trivia[]
The unit's Manchu appelation is somewhat inaccurate, since by the mid-20th century CE China had a government led by the Han people, the major ethnicity in China. Its appearance, however, may be based off the appearance of one of the units raised by the warlord "Jade Marshall" Wu Peifu (1874-1939) following the collapse of the Qing dynasty: the so-called "Tin Hat" (not Tin Foil Hat!) Brigade - named so, because of the French-made combat helmets issued to them.
