It would look destroyed. Who lives on crusty lava anyway?

Woot, wastelands. Make them 1 movement for land units but low defense for every unit - we have high-defense-low-movement, high-defense-high-movement, and low-defense-high-movement, and the lack of the other is often a nuisance when making maps. It would also provide a terrain which is low defense for all units, which would be another useful utility for map-makers.
It's all fun and games until someone loses a lawsuit. Oh, and by the way, sending me private messages won't work. :/ If you must contact me, there's an e-mail address listed on the website in my profile.

oh yeah, since Dwarves did get nerfed on it...Tomsik wrote:We have one, snow, only yeti have 60% def, rest have low def on snow.Elvish Pillager wrote:It would also provide a terrain which is low defense for all units, which would be another useful utility for map-makers.
Nevertheless, there are several reasons that using snow isn't so nice...

I think we've pushing the limits of KISS with the number distinct terrain types as it is. (I.E. terrains with different movement and defense atributes)
We've got 14:
By the way i think some of these names should change, "grassland" represents lots of non-grassy terrains.

Feel free to PM me if you start a new terrain oriented thread. It's easy for me to miss them among all the other art threads.
