I started making a mod that is supposed to make boats better. So far, I've increased health for all arrow and siege ships, increased resistance for arrow, siege, and ram ships. And some more stuff. https://github.com/Jeff-web-sketch/BetterBoats. I am thinking turret-able units would be cool on boats, but is that possible? If you have any input on how boats could be made better, I would be glad to have your input.

How viable would the Rhine Germans be in this early timeline? I know they had some participation in the Gallic Wars. For a bit later you also have Batavian Revolt (almost contemporary to some Briton heroes). 

I wonder if after some more testing we could add this to 0 A.D. itself. Or would you all think there'd be too crazy of consequences.

Not sure, but maybe you have to define another player as non-AI? Just an idea.

Hi @Asura, dont you consider adding your mod to : https://mod.io/g/0ad/m. It would allow players to install the mod easily and give us, as host, an easier way to setup 5v5 games when they are a lot of players in the lobby. I can do it myself but its your mod so i am not really allowed.
