dock and farm for xiongnu?

 Although a farm can be ignored for the Xiongnu, I believe not having a Dock would be a real handicap, as if we go to maps like the Cyclades Islands, they can only wait for their ennemy to come. I think they should get a dock, but only in age II or III, for mainly historic purpose.

For fishing vessels I was thinking something like the coracle, basically a simple/primitive pre-historic usually round(ish) vessel made of branches over spun with animal skin (sometimes waterproofed wicker), once common from Neolithic Britain to the modern day native Americans, including seeing use in Central Asia, including Mongolia. I can't find anything specifically on Xiongnu river transport, but a number of nice rivers full of juicy fish traverse their territory...

For transport/trade, they could have a raft. Simple wooden frame supported by inflated animal skins.

Coracles and other animal skin-vesels from around the world:

They use some kind mercenaries (warship) from their allies? 

I honestly don't think so. They were landlocked... Apart from some fishing or crossing/traveling down a river, I don't think they made use of "boats"... Might be wrong, but it would surprise me a little.
