new tech advance gear/wheel

[silentz27]

It gives all +1 move to all woodcraft unit and chariots for moving out in gate cost 6 turns or 5

[Darkknight]

Nice idea. Cost 6 will be good.

[silentz27]

He he thanks so the idea is cost 6 who can create image for this he he

[Darkknight]

It should be researched in advancement center to give the advancement center more use

[silentz27]

That's right in advacment center I best for this

[Morningwarrior]

increase speed of all siege weapons by 1 point.
Cost:4

[Puss_in_Boots]

Good idea, but I'd change the name to either "Wheel Rounding" or "frictionless wheels"

This tech should be in advancement center and researched for 8 turns to give 1 more movement to all wheeled units such as wagons(maybe not), chariots, battering rams, seige mantlet, hwacha, catapults, canon, and ballista. Trebuchets don't have wheels.

[Endru1241]

Really. I don't wanna see 4 speed rams. They are fast enough as they are (that would be 9 effective range with wagon). Heavy catapult being more mobile is also not a very good perspective.
The only thing I could agree to is chariot. They were not really slower than cavalry, nor that much less manuverable - they were just more restricted by the terrain (while having good wheels).

[Puss_in_Boots]

Agreed, +1 speed to seige weapons would be drastic.
Still: Advancements center researchable
+ 1 speed one for chariots and mantlets

Change: Not for every wheeled unit.
- 6 turn cost

Maybe also this can unlock better wagons for productio .

[Endru1241]

+1 for mantlets especially.

Maybe also this can unlock better wagons for productio .

Like faster? Or armored? Or with greater capacity?

[makazuwr32]

I suggested before 3 variants of updated wagon:
Faster - +1 speed;
Bigger - +1 carry capacity;
Armored - +some armor, is not burnable.

[LordOfAles]

Off-topic. I agree with Endru that chariots need a speed boost though, they are currently underused.

[Patrol3110]

Yes, chariots are underused also siege mantlets could really use the speed buff.

[Morningwarrior]

so at least the upgrade could be 6 shifts to search, 8 and a half exaggerated

[Puss_in_Boots]

Speed is actually a pretty huge buff.

[godOfKings]

what about blacksmith researchable? since other chariot techs are in blacksmith? may we should reduce cost of spacious and wheel blade tech to 3

[Endru1241]

Thanks for noticing gok.
Merged.

[Morningwarrior]

Well,so it is better to set a limit that the maximum siege speed can be 3.
