Hey there!
I really love the game! It’s really awesome! Just to tell you how much I love it: I’m playing since there was only 4 tribes (on iPhone), and I achieved to get a 100% score on every tribe I own!!!!
Introduction: I just thought of a new tech that might be fun to have! (Let me know what you think please.)
What’s the tech? The tech I thought of would be a « bridge tech ». A bit like the « Hydrology tech » from the Cymanti Tribe, but for the other normal tribes like Xin-Xi for example.
What for? It would consist of the possibility do build a bridge across a certain number of water cases. In order to cross it (I was thinking of 2 or 3 cases long.)
How would it work? The bridge would have to be built independently on each cases. However, depending on the depth of the water case, it would cost a different amount of ressources. For example, a bridge part on top of a light blue case would cost 2 stars, and on top of a dark blue case it would cost 3 stars.
Why? (Situation example) A bridge crossing 3 cases of water (1 dark blue, 2 light blue) would be more helpful for me then creating a port. Why? Since it will be considered as a normal case instead of a port, I’ll be able to cross the little plot of water faster than by landing on a port, then crossing and then unboard.
Where would it be on the tech tree?
1. According to me, the best place for this new tech would be between the « aqua-animism » tech and the « coasting/cabotage » tech. In this case, the « bridge » tech should be accessible by both sides.
2. Another possible place I could think of, would be in the same tech as the « whale fishing ».
Finally: Well, that’s what I got... I hope to hear of you soon enough about my idea, whether it’s positive or not.
What do you guys think of it?
