the idea of train time based on res cost isnt that great, since some units are cheaper and great (longbow, dogs) and some cost a lot of res but are rather crappy (nadier, halbs)
so it kinda nerfed certain units that didnt need a nerf.

Yeah, grenadiers suck a lot now. It used to be that the only time I ever saw them was if I was playing a Russian or was using for a grenadier rush. Now there just isn't a point to making them.
Likewise with Ruyters.

yeah i ff'ed today and this guy totally overpowered me with grens... he did like a late colonial and owned me he was ottos
They were nerfed even further. The building that produces their direct counters (Stable) is 30% cheaper. I just don't see Grenadier rushes working any better in 1.08 than they did in 1.03-1.07. If anything they're probably worse.

The only grens we'll be seeing are probably the french UC ones.
