Sea ships?

[daring horizon]

I understand in the game there is Airships and Landships. But what about Sea Ships. Basically a Ship but on Water, and possibly tiles on the conquest map exclusive for sea naval combat? This idea might too wild.

[hushed jacinth]

How will they intercept anything other than a port city or another naval fleet

[daring horizon]

Well the point is that it stays within the water tiles.

[hushed jacinth]

I see

Ships and submarines would be very interesting to build and use. And they're the most cost-efficient type of travel irl, we could have them get a remarkable bonus to supply storage, allowing them to travel farther than any equivalent airship and also carry more weight, limited by the fact that they can only navigate the seas, while airships can go wherever they need to go

[subtle oriole]

this has been discussed a hundred times over, zark has said
maybe, but not in the near future

[gloomy pine]

the point is that it stays within the water tiles... ah yes...

so what you're saying is, you add a part of the game that will be underutilized and not particularly helpful...

[daring horizon]

Wars are fought everywhere, including the sea, under the sea, air, and outer space.

[daring horizon]

There are always pros and cons to all unit types. What you said is what I was trying to explain, where the unit type will have some advantages and disadvantages.

[subtle oriole]

space doesnt fit this game

[daring horizon]

example about where battles are fought

[gloomy pine]

yeah.

but i still, and will always continue to think that wetships would be adding bloat

because i genuinely dont believe there's a reason to use em

like

logically thing about it

[peak venture]

Port assault and defense, supply carrying, hell, even airship ferrying over large distances

[violet mortar]

wetships could be wayyy cheaper landships.

[subtle oriole]

and thats about it

[gloomy pine]

Yeha... but do you think they can intercept airships?

because if they cant deny airships, and cant actually dig deep into enemy territory

its an investment you put there

that uh

rots

[peak venture]

Yes, and even in cases they can't, there's other use cases for them

[gloomy pine]

i see..

wht if the ships in questions just... ran

[subtle oriole]

peak sea ship is just ramma

[jade flame]

bro this idea is ass

only way it would be good is if sea tiles would block land and air vehicles from moving through that tile's entire border

[compact crow]

"Space ships, Conquer the Space"

[gloomy pine]

Of course there's a reason, it's because they're awesome.

The idea of a coastal bombardment / defence scenario is fun, as is the idea of naval battles at sea. Just neat, that's all.

[barren jetty]

which is possible

Would also add a new feature for transporting land vehicles to other landmasses

Cause rather than having the simple method of transporting vehicles by the current in-game animation

They could make it so that we are required to have boats to transport them

Not saying its a good idea but saying it seems possible
