Would it be possible for some civilians to appear as your empire grows? They spawn at houses and if killed, take a little while to "respawn"? They would walk around and go to places such as the market and such. They wouldn't be controllable but if you were attacked they would run around in panic and possibly get killed.

Sounds great! Looking forward to it! One concern: what about the multiplayer lobby?

I REALLY like the idea for units to be slower going over non road areas! Give certain factions (Iberians, Celts, Ect) the ability to travel the same speed as if they were on roads over all terrain. This would encourage players to learn about each faction, therefore adding strategy. And perhaps add certain units for factions without that bonus that would have the ability to cover none road terrain faster.
