Just an idea to throw out there, i like the idea of making my own custom civ, i think you could kind of do that in an earlier civ but im thinking pick special attributes from a list, say pick two, pick type of special units and or buildings, that kind of thing, sound doable or lame? Also there are times when you would like to be able to take a shortcut to a spot on the map with a ship but if a piece of land is blocking it you have to go all the way around a land mass or if its only one hex large you can build a city there. How about a canal improvement so you dont have to build a city or if it is larger than one hex, a canal could be a way through that land mass. Maybe make a limit on number of hexes is could cross, im not the greatest idea guy but ive thought of this idea a time or two, any input?

Been plenty of discussion about canals already. Here's just one thread:

Thanks for the thread link, glad to see others are into the canal idea! I should probably look for previous discussions on topics i am interested in but i admit I am having a hard time figuring this forum navigation thing out. Thanks again for the reply.
