Can we have more maps with the shipyards?
Like the destroyers and frigates? Some of the WC2 features brought back?
New Navy Units and Better Rotations and Clunk Size. Possibly after race balance?
Thoughts?
Naga could come aswell…

This is more of a mod thing. With the kind of freedom that the World Editor gives us, we don’t need to get Blizzard to make every single little variation for us. And their time would be better spent on bonus campaigns or game balance, things we can’t do for ourselves and so forth.
Even with my own basic World Editor skills, I was able to create custom armies and modified armies (aka ones that include naval units like in WC2). Islands was also I map I liked and was specifically one where I did exactly the same sort of editing.
If you want something like that, just make it and host the game on custom games or play with friends. I know I intend to.

I loved playing WC2 ToD on my saturn, but if you have casuals crying because managing a hero, your town and some units is too hard, they would go insane having to also manage your navy.
harassing coastal towns with your f4cking warships was f4cking awesome. scouting with an archer to bait more victims and then bringing them near the warships just to get raped to death was the sh1t.

Nobody would play those maps, guaranteed.
Adding ships wouldn’t be as simple as just drag-n-drop. Naval fights would make a huge difference in the overall gameplay mechanics. There’s also one big difference in WC2 and 3: WC3 has heroes. How would heroes cope with ships? Ships would most likely just become units that nobody would use. What would their purpose even be?
Also, adding ships would just bring huge loads of more balancing to do, and there’s enough of that already. There are ship assets and you can make anything you want in custom games, but quite frankly, there’s just no room for naval fights in melee games, since the whole game is already built without ships. Maybe in WC4.
