Watchfires Designs (+Wallcombinations)

No revolutionary idea here, just the simple fact that watchfires look rather way off from about colonial age and onward.

(They seam to always end up in a clustered pattern - But it does not make them any prettier IMO).

Suggesting to make at least one Modern Watchfire Design that could work Design wise from Industrial/Progressive age and onward.

Wall Combinations

I have a few time used the the Old East wall in between two Watchfires, I found it to look quite good for that little thing it is, because it created a kind of unified combo in contrary to just singular units as most of the game buildings are now.

Designing Decorations/buildings that in multiple numbers placed next to each other work in modular visual unity to create an extended structures. E.g. a Wall.


So if a New Watchfire where to be designed then it would perhaps be great to add a wall/fence decoration to accompany the Watchfire and encourage some other builds than just the usual cluster.


Abuse: None
(Except perhaps for creating a very well defended looking city with way to many decorations in it, loosing all income to the AID Gizmo Algorithm ;).

For the user who like an esthetic pleasing city , this would be great.
Upgrade watchtowers when one get into a new era.

Satellite dishes in CE for example .. same use ( watching ) but better fitting the CE city visually.

a +0.5 for me.

Not a priority , but one that most users would enjoy.

The problem would be that users need to load even more different graphics... slowing down the gameplay.
