Everytime an insectoid building got hit, it will spawn a larva. Kinda fitting to spammy altitude. Destroying insectoid building would be harder since adjacent tiles will be occupied by larvas.
Larva unit will be weak and one hit kill. Just stalling device.

American:

At first I want to make all these as skins, but having it as reskinning all infantries might be better.
All made to look different for each nations.The guns are different, the uniform has some extra touch, and different poses.
Germans:

I like it

Or ability attack can work too. Ability attack means no counterattack

German rifleman Gerbirgsjager skin for winter

Nice

In case banzai is just weird, bicycle infantry: Japanese likes their folded bicycle. Moves 4 speed. Good for rushing.

I feel lunge mine should be at grenade ability to a unit. TYpe 89 mortar as infantry grenade ability with range of 2 (probably for smg)

Inspired by one of the campaign, someone use the jeeps as motorized infantry with 60 health I think. That would be nice. It works pretty nicely.

Currently at cannons are 1 speed and 1 range. The counterattack is devastating. Perhaps range 2 for it's disadvantage

Since Germany has guns factory, should other nations get one unique building each?

Maybe since anything with leaving might be annoying. The banzai can just have lower hp to keep it look fraglie

Germany has Panzerjager and Panzergrenadier that can be taken as unique infantries, so I think other nations could get unique infantries too. American : Seabees : Upgrade of the premium engineer. Now can defend themself like normal rifleman. Rangers : Walks the same in all terrain. Infantry grenade ...

English unique cavalry. Very fast light cavalry armed with lance. It's last mention is in 1458 I think, so it might still be viable to be added.

Since I don't know how artillery can be mercenary, I make this suggestion for very large bombards that are made by some nations. Very hard to maintain and need more care by sending money courier. No need to be 1x2

Basically big bombard cannons that are deemed to be very expensive to maintain but cause very devastating damage. Needing money lender to keep it on service. Commissioned to engineers. This will cover all the big bombards: dardanelles, mons meg, etc.

Simplified pike and shot unit could work. Pike unit with musket shot ability. Then officer can apply "tercio" ability on that unit only.

Tercio as a unit is ok tho. Just pikeman with musket shot ability

MIght be English unique mercenary. Armed with lance and shield. Better light horseman in early game

Light ship called "fusta" crewed by barbary pirates. Fast with small carry capacity. Can easily escape enemies and go around them. Quite good ranged attack. Defeated land units will spawn money courier (through slave trade). I can't find European using the Barbary corsairs, but they exist ...

The musket ability attack that the musketeers have require the tech to use. Since custom levels don't start with tech, you can't fire the musket then. So I want the musket tech to only unlock the ability of training the musketeer unit. Blocking the attack ability will make musketeer useless in custo...

Currently the musket tech must be researched to be able to fire the musket with musket units. Make it just unlock the unit with the tech. Currently when I am using map editor to test, I can't use the musketeers due to that

Make musket units having extra damage. Will start the feeling of charging against line infantry is like charging a wall

Having the mercenary camp able to leave sounds interesting. It's buildable from beginning. All factions have it.

Produce money courier and the mercenaries

Allows ships to decrease attack power of the enemy ship by killing their gun crews. Small debuff, but just enough amount to be helpful

Ships can summon rowboats that can transport unit inside it. So you can dock the ship to drop units, or use the rowboat.

Cool

Carbines: Make cavalries more effective by upgrading the unit like arquebush cavalry->Harquebusier
Artillery Carbines: Gives artillery "carbine shot" ability. One range medium damaging ability for self defense.
