Default Re: Idea for new oceanic terrain types.

Rivers would be great for sites, but which ones? Water's obvious, but at the same time, the water's constantly moving, and washing away most sites in time, plus rivers themselves might not be large enough to support many types of sites, even if we're talking about the Amazon. And in that case, with very large rivers made up of many tributaries, it's no longer a river, it becomes a Confluence. Besides, my thought for rivers is that they'd generally be valuable enough, serving as easy access to inland provinces, and as roadways.

I *was* trying for some parity between land and sea terrains, actually, Gandalf. I'm not sure how obvious it is, but if what we have now could be renamed and placed in the water, or even just shoe-horned in, it might work.
