Unique front-line unit of the American civilization. Replaces the Musketmen.
* Special abilities:

** (Earn points toward a for each enemy unit killed.)
== Strategy ==
The Minutemen have some exceptional abilities, which allow them to fight and outmaneuver the enemy in rough terrain. They're at their best when they can use their natural advantages in forests, hills, and other such terrain. Additionally, Minutemen have a promotion to earn points toward s with kills! The number of points earned are equal to either the Combat Strength or the Ranged Combat Strength of the unit (whichever is greater), so it never gets out-of-date.
As their bonuses are promotions, any Minuteman that is upgraded to a Rifleman and further down the chain will retain them.

== Trivia ==
* Minutemen are called such since they had often boasted about how they could be ready in a minute. This was primarily due to the fact that many Minutemen operated within or near their home towns; allowing them to travel short distances in terrain they are familiar with. They also had light equipment and did not need to commit to conventional combat; many Minutemen would retreat from battle to operate as skirmishers or hide among the civilians of the colonies.
