Posts from The importance of water on the map.

I think I'll also stand up for water :rolleyes: ... firstly, I like the battles on the deck - you can come up with an interesting strategy (like barricading the trap with dragons, for example).

Yes, it immediately becomes a different game with different rules.;)

Even though water sometimes annoys me, it would be completely uninteresting without it. But if there's water, then there should be more different rocks and shipwrecks. ;)

I wasn't particularly into water. I can't really say anything – neither good nor bad. But without it, the game feels incomplete. Water adds a certain "flavor" to the game. Sometimes it can be quite fun. It's amusing when you're just one tile short of the desired location. And lately, I've come to appreciate maps with water more. However, I have a negative opinion of maps with many tiny islands and no large ones. I like it when everything is in equal proportion – 50% land and 50% water.

Freya, you're so cunning, letting more people drown :) You're like a lifeguard :)

Sometimes it's interesting to sail around, collect resources that aren't guarded by anyone (provided there's a market)... But I really don't like that embarking/disembarking takes a turn, and the Admiral's Hat isn't available everywhere... And I also REALLY don't like it when the entire coastline is covered with enemy ships, and you don't have time to eliminate them all with your main forces... But the opposite situation is very encouraging :) It's sad to lose your troops in whirlpools... But I'm saying, sometimes it's incredibly interesting to sail through a sea/river/lake/or whatever the map creators come up with/muddy/stream labyrinth :) I'm always drawn to the water... but I only explore it when there's nothing left to do on land :)

I like it, the only downside is that the docking area is crowded with boats and there’s nowhere to land.

Water is good, especially if there's a shipyard nearby. Otherwise, I once ran along the shore, destroying the enemy fleet.

I don't really like water; it's because of it that I got stuck in two campaigns. :smile18: Although water is my favorite element.

Yeah... There's also a way to gain skills on water, and in WoG there are even teleporters...

Teleporters - teleport troops on whirlpools to land, or swap troops...

But there's a catch... If there's no ship building near the water... Then there must be an artifact or a portal on the map...

Artifact - an artifact that allows you to cross or fly over water.
Portal - a portal that allows you to teleport from one place to another, including water.

Sometimes I want to play with water, and sometimes I don't. It doesn't cause any major inconvenience, although if the Castle is located on the shore... it's a bit unsettling.
