    Default Mountain roads.. A change of tactics?

    I was thinking about the streches of open mountains on the map and was wondering.. while traveling allong these roads, instead of leaving massive open fields, why not change the map up a bit?

    Create tunnels, mountain paths with small standing areas and narrow, cliff edges on which to fight on.

    This may be utterly immposible but.. To create tunnels in the mountains the ground would have to be raised in grooves with flat, smooth floors [made by the dwarves] or rough, jagged, up and down curves [made by Goblins] And these tunnels would have to be unreasonably big but there would be

    1: no room for chargeing except head on,

    2: A whole new method of fighting giveing dwarves a terrane that they can actualy WIN in, and make sence, since they are mountains.

    3: A feel like you are fighting in tight places, in a landscape with tunnels layed out somewhat simmilarly to a city, with more concern over takeing and holding intersections and out flanking your enemy and traping them inbetween two foes in the deep dark tunnels underground.

    High mountain paths, Where there is literaly only one road to go between, it would be Intresting to see armys struggle back and forth over these narrow pathways way up high, small platforms or open spaces allowing archers to shoot farther ahead at enemys waiting to close with your troops or enemy archers raining down arrows on your troops where the path winds back apon itself.

    No idea if any of this is posible.. but I'm just throwing it out there in case someone can set it up somehow in a mod or something.

    I highly doubt this is possible, except with maybe years and years of concentration and hard work from a dedicated team...
    But, What could be done is to create a new sky texture, like in Mordor, there is red sky, they could make mountain roads have a "Stone sky" so it looks like it's inside. All vegetation and ground textures need to be changed as well, in that case. T'would be cool though!

    I was thinking more of like the whole network of tunnels were opened up as if the roof had been taken off so you could command the army, with just really high mountains to either side and a night sky or just a really dark one.
