Hello.


I love the Morgawr and I love the fortress system.


After few multiplayer games, and several solo games, I want to speak about a small but annoying problem with hurt the blossoming of the Morgawr specific gameplay.


It's hard for Morgawr to defend their cities


Considering that :


- Morgawr plant their cities in costal regions. Costal regions can be far each others. If Morgawr want to exploit their trade capacity over the land, their cities may be very distants. Others races build their city close so the defense is easy and fast because you can send your mobile defense force at any point in few points.


- Morgawr cannot build road. Morgawr have naturally slowers unit on land (-1 map speed).


- Morgawr have only one unit on land, which is a support unit. They need a decent assimilated unit if they want to defend well (cannot be Eyeless unit for exemple).


- If Morgawr want to exploit their feature which improve the trade between their costal lands, they need to build city far from each others. It feat to their "British Empire" designed strategy.


I suggere that (I remember that a guy suggered this idea on the Tempest beta forum too) :


- Suggestion : As they have distant costal cities, without road, without flying units, they need a way to move unit over the seas faster : The speed necklace work over the sea for the Morgawr. So +1 speed give them +1 speed for their embarqued units. Etc up to +3 speed. It will help them to defend their cities, and invade others ennemy city (near seas).


I find this pretty logical and this is not a big buff.


Note that this cannot be buff the Morgawr naval domination, as you don't use embarqued unit to clean the formorians, you need naval specialised units, and I have no intention to buff the naval units.

Hello!


I want to suggest another solution to this problem:

Cargo Docks create ocean roads. If the ocean roads will grant a movement bonus, as a paved roads, it will help Morgawr to defend their cities. I think that it's pretty small change and it will be really usefull for all fractions, not only for Morgawr.

Your solution is very interesting.


It needs two docks, and docks and expansive and late tech. So it's not something who can been abused.
