[Suggestion] Wealth of Nations

I think it would make sense to allow a boat caravan to connect through harbors. As we all know, it is a better means of trade and will really add some interesting strategy to the great big blue thing. The current land use seems to allow enemy caravans to go right through my units. They should be stopped and forced to turn back until I move.

Agreed.  Shipping routes should be much more lucrative than land routes.  The should also be more dangerous.

Yes, this seems like a good idea - it seems like it should be easy to basically implement "sea caravans" only for cities with harbors.  Maybe that gives a reason for pirates, too... and everybody loves pirates!

Yep.  I'm pretty sure this is going to make it in for two reasons.  First, the Tarth seem to be a naval centric kingdom.  Second, a number of the AI development diaries have been on the difficulties of getting the AI to cope with multiple land masses.
