I don't know if this is just base game info, but in my game (all expansions) the commando upgrade gives +1 movemant. again I don't know IF you just have the base game the commando upgrade is without +1 movement or you need a certain expansion pack for that. Also one of the latest patches added +5 combat str vs melee for anti-cav class. perhaps it's only if you have the Frontier pass? I'm not sure. I agree with your recon plan, get just ONE of the first lvl upgrades, and after you get that +20 upgrade you can go for the other lvl 1 upgrade. A +20 recon unit is VASTLY underrated! he's basically a mini death robot (especially if you enhance him via world congress and/ or religion) so get him quickly!
One tip on Recon use, many people don't get much use out of Recon units, I mean, many let them scout out till they die than make more NO! IMO your Recon unit is the most important unit (no other unit can get +40 combat strength meaning 100 range strength by the Industrial age IF YOU KEEP HIM ALIVE). Anyway what I find that might help you, you said you use recon units to fight! PLEASE PLEASE DON'T... or just be careful with that I'm sure you know they are WEAK basically any uninjured unit from the same age can one shot them :/ So yeah, unless you're taliking about AFTER you get +20 upgrade but otherwise get ANY kind of combat (even Scout v Scout combat really... I mean it's a waste of time you'd be more efficient continuing to explore) out of your head. PLEASE. These guys get MUCH more exp just by finding goody huts and natural wonders so finding them (with the 2x exp card plugged in, I never take my card out until a: I get a +20 upgrade or b: I uncover the whole map) is MUCH more efficient. I mean a barb/ free city gives 1xp per hit and that hit costs you half of your life! You'll take 5 turns to heal is that 5 turns worth 1xp? no. go out and find a goody hut 15xp or natural wonder for 20! I also suggest frequent save scumming to keep your scout alive though lol but good luck! Finally many ppl find it easy to get up to lvl 2 (2 upgrades) on your scout but the third CAN be tricky. EXPECIALLY if say your alliance of city state finds all the natural wonders o.0 grrrr I know. this is where I save scum and bee-line it xD but say you don't want to. Well know there are other ways to get FREE upgrades! Great Generals! Terracota Army! And if you're REALLY unlucky and you have somebody left that doesn't HATE you, a lvl 3 military alliance gives you upgrades out the wazoo! But yeah, get one lvl 1 upgrade than can see through forests (not that it matters but it's on the right track) THAN +20. By than I will be close or will have a lvl 3 military alliance (Egypt is always a GREAT civ to target as your trade routes to them will be 150% usefull. I find Uncle Gilgy is good to... and he's programed to accept your friendship any time he isn't red faced with you lol) than I make another recon to join with my +20 recon when I make this one the lvl 3 military aliance will give it one promotion and you can choose the one you didn't on the initial recon. Than join the two in a corp and you have 4 upgrades in one SUPER unit! Unless you have Vampires this unit will be the super hero unit you can rely on pretty much in all ocasions! Recon units are so sneaky OP.
Hmm ya I think you are right I had copied the picture from the wiki but it say +1 movement was added civilization.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_promotions_in_Civ6#cite_note-1
@@pdraggy ya I agree the recon unit can become super useful if you get enough promotions, for me it's like a Magikarp you need to just get experience until it gets better.
