[Suggestion] Cities on different terrains

from Elemental Forums

Really looking forward to this game. Keep up the good work guys!

I've been watching a lot of movies from beta testing in which all cities are built on the plains.
Will it be possible to build cities on other terrains, such as forests, hills or ice?

Of course it should come along with some advantage and disadvantage. I'm imagining myself as a ice wizard in a city on top of a snowy mountain. Or maybe a treecity or caves in the hills?

Maybe in the swamps like in Monthy Python:
"When I first came here, this was all swamp. Everyone said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up. And that's what you're going to get, Lad, the strongest castle in all of England."

Lol i agree i like having interesting terrain I would also love spells that alter your 'domain' like age of wonders to terraform the terrain into Fire Water/Ice Wind Earth *earth being one of several terrain types from hills/mountains to plains and crags* to finally life and death death being a wasteland between you and your enemies and life giving you many bonuses for having so much life but the weakness being many more monsters etc.

 

You could balance it quite well and add another element to the soveriegns unique powers.

If nothing else maybe it'll be in an expansion.
