Great point Sir Beane!

But those wonderful Beavers put me in mind of something. Pioneers and Sappers! Where are they? I know this game must have entrenchments as well as several types of forts. Dose it mean they are only notional or will we be able to use them against enemy fortifications? But then again…the battles don’t last long enough for counter trenches and moving artillery forward under cover…but being able to start a battle entrenched would be a blessing…or a curse…

Anyway the beaver would be also useful in destroying enemy fleets at anchor.
