Idea for the future: Home ground

[bongo]

I would add 'jungle' as an ability, and maybe remove mountain.

So when you're about to teach the evil inuits a lesson or two you just send all your sun-tanned desert troops to a city with a ski-resort. Pay a bucketload of cash and wait one turn to see them turn into pale, fierce, pierced, tattooed, fear-nothing snowboarders...oops I meant to say winter-warriors.

Would 10 years suffice? That'll be one turn then (in the earlier stages of the game)

Good question. One year would seem a bit little for soldiers to learn how to find food and shelter, move and fight in a certain kind of terrain.

The skills I think of are the ones that decided conflicts like the Russo-Finnish winter war, the Vietnam war and the battle of Little Bighorn.

Mods, could you please move this thread to the Civ General/Future forum?

Thank you.

Good idea.

Perhaps a creation of each unit in different terrain type or by the city's terrain type where it's built it has different defense and attack bonuses on that terrain type
