Sea Zones

[Tom]

Troops that arrived the same turn do not count as actively defending.

The new TO system on Dwilight, does that distinguish between the ocean and the central sea? Could for example Libero empire take over one of D'Hara's regions?

The keyword is "coast", exactly as I posted. Look into the region details to see if it is located at a coast.

I think he meant to ask if owning one coastal region allowed for TOs of any coastal region, or only of coastal regions in the same sea. I'm guessing the former, 'cause while there's a clear cut in northern dwilight, the seas all interconnect down south.

Some issues I have been thinking about with the creation of sea zones causing old sea routes to go away:
1. Obviously how TO's will be done across sea.
2. Ceding lands to other nations as a ruler ,not the lord or duke switching allegiance, as IIRC it requires the region to border the nation it is being ceded to.
3. Immigration for islands as damage will be much much worse without any immigration.

For 2 and 3 I suggest keeping the part of sea routes where they bordered the region it was connected to while still not allowing travel that way.

I have no answer for 3 yet but for 2 was the same concept applied as the solution to 1?

So then it doesn't matter if your on the coast of the large inner sea or one of the outer seas?

I would guess it would be a challenge to code that...

[Arrakis]

Now that the awesome sea zones are about, perhaps that small island south of Golden Farrow could become habitable?

The biggest problem would be to determine where a sea stops and where it ends. And on that limit, you'd end up with serious inconsistencies and unfair restrictions.

It would really be cool if the isle to the left top of the tomb isles(D'hara) could become a stronghold region.... (I know i am not the first one to suggest it)
Low population, low income and a food income just enough to supply its self, a charasteristic place to conduct your sea warfare from, or temporarily embark to get some provisions.
Since it is the isle where close by the Kraken has been first sighted call it 'the Kraken' or 'Fort Kraken'? :-)

Heh.  ;D

um.... can't remember if this has been asked...

you know lands with the old sea routes supposedly had something done to them to link their trades.. something like you are meant to be able to trade with the region across a sea route..

how will the removal of the old sea route affect trade between those kind of regions? (or any regions for that matter across a stretch of water)

Trade never did follow routes; it's a circle of diameter T around your current location, where T is the trading distance the game tells you.

[Telrunya]

The Trading Between Sea Routes might be abolished now though, as that was an exception to the Trade Range (You can always trade with neighbouring regions, but they won't be neighbouring regions any longer)

As Telrunya said, there was an exception for sea routes, because when the change first kicked in, D'Haran lords couldn't trade with anybody at all.
