Well I think ships are very much needed make a expansion of water if necessary and have a few islands, we don\'t only need battle ships there can be merchant ships, supply ships and such if you want something from a different territory and its to go in your castle or cottage/home whatever it should be put over boat with some sort of tax.  That can go for the same for shop owners who want rare goods from different lands it can be transfered over boat. Then think if that supply ship or merchant ship gets sunk or whatever then the shop it was going to will have to manage without supplies and so would players for awhile. It would make for some interesting scenarios :D

Maybe there could be player built boats, it could use wood cutting and carpentry skills, maybe have  it require a bunch of people or a guild to make.
Or if you have low skills in those areas or are alone you could build a cheap raft.

the only ships would be like rafts of little boats like sailing shits prob lol. The would only go on the 7th level as this is the surface of the largest lake in yliakum.

maybe in other worlds lol.

magic portals created by like whats his face the other god mentioned the powerfulest one. Not talad or laanx. The one that helped them get people to populate yliakum. Any way theses magic portals only act as doorways to other worlds, not doorways to different parts of Yliakum.

Most travel will prob be done on foot anyway. This will make it more difficult to get to places and will also require alot of attention to the world details to keep players from being bored and from counting every little second.

there was also animals to ride. ya one pterasaur one megaras (or whatever) for each guild so it makes these a luxury. so you cant really hope for one of these unless you are a guild leader lol and a rich one at that. But there are also like land based  animals like prob horses.

to move through levels i think with flying animals there are going to be like wide tunnels in the sideds of the stalactite thing which you fly between or maybe just big holes in the roof. Big holes prob like waterfalls because they say that there is like 7 rivers running into Yliakum and these probably soak  through and erode the ground. if not then water runs down holes in side of stalactite to lol.

to move through levels there was also like pulley run lifts owned by merchants so that you would like pay to use these but this makes it really easy to

then for poor people or like newbs there is stairs in side of stalactite. really long boring stairs with occasional rest stops lol.


For your main idea i think yes carts could be made if you didnt own animal and could pay driver. maybe like a goods trader. Is there a trading job in PS? you have carts driven by horsies or just attach  luggage to pack mule

so there

I would realy like it to fish at my boat, sleep at my boat, bring others to other islands for money, attack other ships with your guild etc. but thats my opinion :)

Then i use fire-magic and light ur sails on fire, and then i make ur ships burn to ashes while you and ur men are still on board, and then i would have a major laugh:D

well, there are posts about ships before,

ships would be cool, but rather useless i guess,

but i am wondering if there is gonna be land-transport,
like some horse-like creature,
that would be neat,
since them expensive flying thingys wont be in my possesion for a looooong time !

And i\'d like to know if there\'s some site or post where i can read what\'s gonna be in CB, cause i see some people know, I\'d like to too.

Yes, you\'ll be able to ride land monsters. Information about CB is not summarized anywhere imho, except in the mind of some people.

what about a adding pokemons? Ofcourse not pokemons but Ice dragons, Fire Dragons and other creatures :P You can train them, learn them various tricks and combat moves (attacks) and let them fight with others :P

Well, riding was of course a lot suggested, with foods and others trivial things. Remember that this forum is here since ... well i wan\'t here when they created it. And look at the post count :) We need to have something to do while waiting CB. (Note to the devs: don\'t think  releasing CB will lower the number of requests, muahahaha :D)

And i have heard that devs don\'t want \'classic\' monsters, especially dragons and pok?mons :P
