Do you think it would be possible to mod boats into the game? Maybe tweak the wagon files, add AMPHIBIOUS? There isn't much call for them now, but when siege capability comes out, it could be useful.

No.

Actually, boats are planned to be implemented in the game, but they're not going to come for a LONG time. Certainly not this decade, anyway.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

Possibly an idea for the caravan arc?

Perhaps dwarven pirates of the high seas? Instead of a fortress build a gigantic boat and travel the world looting anyone you come upon.

Try adding AMPHIBIOUS and SWIMS_INNATE to the wagon and all the cart animals and see what happens. Results could be interesting! :D

Right now Rampages seem to be Godzilla quietly walking into Tokyo, biting the leg off of one reporter... then creeping off again without a sound.

Destroyed by water. It's hardcoded in the WAGON token.

Well, a single arc may take 1-6 years easily, and the caravan arc is far, not to mention other things.
