We need bridges! » Forum Post by NanakoAC

As I haven´t played a full game from beginning to the end, that was exactly the thing I wondered about, i.e. if there is a technology that allows you to build bridges (i.e. "real" bridges, not only fallen tree longs over the river).

I agree, if this ability isn´t in the game (yet) it should definitely be introduced.

Maybe as a construction project, that can be initiated for river tiles within the borders of your empire and then be executed by the nearest town

roads in river tiles don't seem to do much. i think it would be awesome if we could get bridges across rvers, automatically built whenever a road crosses a river (after discovering a certain tech?) that would allow the road to operate at normal efficiency for units walking along it, and not get slowed down by the water.

Bridge bridge bridge bridge bridge...
(Immature way of saying, weee I want bridges... Hm these drugs )

Poor idea we don't need bridges. Fjords maybe....bridges nope.

What exactly makes it a poor idea? I can understand if it's something you don't want, but that doesn't make it a poor idea.

I vote for bridges too.

Check out Heavenfall's Stormworld, in particular Rivermod. HF built it - they will come.

I agree bridges would look good, but roads do operate at normal efficiency where they cross rivers. You just have to be carefull spotting the precise square.

I think Mubunu is right. I just noticed this with some pre-existing roads coming out of the Imperium this morning.

We should move posts like these into its own folder / category for "suggested improvements"

I find it a minor detail, but I would like to see them over the rivers
