Their navy is average missing the Fast Fire Ship and Elite Cannon Galleon, but they get fully upgraded Galleons. The Siege Workshop is average, but their Scorpions get a great attack boost with Rocketry. Their infantry have all technologies but lack Supplies and foot archers get all the upgrades they could want, and their cavalry is also solid despite missing two final tier upgrades ( Paladin and Hussar).
