BABYLONIAN Bowmen defense of 2!

Is this TRUE?
I don't have the game jet, but if it is, than Firaxis is really listening the Fans.

Also: Rider 4/3/3 (defense of 3 instead of 4)

I don't believe it!
I just don't believe it!

Wasn't the recent (a month ago) poll result, that most apolytoners didn't want to change anything in the bowman stats???

Now, this centence in the link above starts puzzling me:

Quote:

Their on-again, off-again relationship with the Assyrians taught them the value of armored, yet maneuverable archers.

...maneuverable ...

statistics 2-2-1 doesn't show anything special in maneuverability...

well, they were supposed to be 2-1-2, therefore the maneuverability idea...

Actually I saw this at Civilization Nation site
Link: www.kfoshaug.com/civ3/

There is a whole list of units, all updated 1. nov, from FINAL RELEASE of the game.
So if you don't have the game, you can look stats here.

Note: some "other" info on this site is still obsolete

Rider 4/3/3 (defense of 3, not 4)

It also says that bonus of f-15 are precision strikes not attck bonus.
