Reading Wald's "Canal Infrastructure?" thread, I had the idea to not just add a Canal (which original idea is Here) but also the "natural" counterpart that would work similarly.
Wald's idea was to add a district that would have allowed the transit in land trough its "track" to both land and water unit. RedSirus suggested to make it work as an (expensive) harbour, limiting its presence to one per territory (and I would add as requisites: it has to connect at least 2 low water tiles), and he also suggested the addition of a similar district for mountains: the Tunnel. In the same way I proposed to add to the Canal the natural variant of the strait, I'm suggesting to add to the Tunnel the Pass! (the Pass should be the natural space between mountain chains that allows to traverse them; I didn't know its name in english so I googletransated it from my 1st language)
I'll schematize my idea in order to clarify it better:
it allows the transit of: | Water and Land Units | just Land Units |
It's an artificial structure: | Canal | Tunnel |
It's a natural modifier: | Strait | Pass |
The Tunnel should be limited just to once per mountain chain and, alongside the Canal, it should de unlocked in the 5th/6th era. All of this structures/natular modifiers should grant a negative CS bonus to the units standing there, in a similar way rivers already do.
Note: I kindly remind you that, since 1M pts ideas shall potentially make its addition to the game, an upvote would be really appreciated.
Thank you for your support :)
