Privateer would be deadly now if it could pillage fishing boats...
this fact alone would probably be enough to insure they wouldn't put it in the game. hopefully someone will build one someday, someway.
 
Honestly, naval units seem pretty balanced as they are right now. If I had to choose one, I would say nuclear sub....just b/c I miss the flexibility/cost of the tactical nukes.
 
I'd like to see a nuclear submarine that has both conventional & nuclear Bombar abilities.

they definitly got to do something with the subs! i mean, high tech spy transport doesn't cut it. the rest of the time they just run for their lives from destroyers.

starnge that poll didn't appear at the same time of the thread.Anyway my choice would be for a nuclear submarine.

polls are made after the thread is made, it depends really on naval things, for me to actually want more naval things would require a complete revamp of the whole thing to give me some reason of building them.
 
I voted trireme. It's a classic and an early attack ship would be nice. If I could've I would also have voted for Man-O-War and Privateer. Most of the naval units in Civ are modern, so older choices have more appeal for me. Viking Longship would also be cool.
 
I think I'll make a blanket statement and say I hope they include more post-modern units like the stealth ship someone mentioned.
 
I would either like to see,

1) Another submarine. (that has the ability to specify which unit in a stack to attack. maybe it could earn this ability from an experience upgrade that is submarine specific)

2) A privateer, because it would then be important to build a navy to protect your sea resources.

Just some quick thoughts
 
yes, an opportunity to open up the sea aspect (no seafaring trait tho- )

Trireme - basic ancient warship -surprised they keep skip'n this
This is the one i voted for because the others listed u could perhaps use promotions to get to the desired result.

Pirate ship by all means. Once again - y'd they skip this? To take the fun out?
(As a matter of fact they ought to have the galley have a promotion icon that gives "pirate" status.)

(How about have the Ironclad be able to travel up rivers...it would beef up that niche unit)

I too miss the nuke sub- its just as advanced a weapon system as any icbm stuff- makes sense to have that as a modern sea unit. Once again maybe a promotion icon "nuke engine" with a couple polaris ports to boot.
 
Aegis would be ok if it doesn't appear too late to be useful (as in Civ 3)

I'd really like to see barbarians use galleys to transport units and/or pillage nets, to make early navies more useful/necessary. Currently they're only a concern if you already have a navy

me too, but barbarians already can pilliage nets.
 
Really? I've never seen them do that. The only time barb ships have been a concern for me is during early naval exploration.
 
Ship of the Line like the HMS Victory.
 
Really? I've never seen them do that.
it's true, although strangely not high on their priority list, as i've also seen them pass harmlessly over my nets. it's curious because what else do they have to do out there, i mean, they're barbarians! maybe they could talk to their land-loving friends, who pilliage everything if you let them.
