Ok, the big Q I've had about all sorts of these games. Why can't Romans (and other advanced cultures) build bridges across rivers? There is ample documentation in history, but for some reason, a bridge is either already built, or there is no bridge at all possible.
To be plain, an existing bridge should be able to be destroyed, just like a building, and rebuilt at a suitable location whenver time and money permit, seems to me. I guess, as a non-programmer, I don't see some difficulty in the game code that must prevent a "building" across a "river" that troops can cross. Maybe even improve to be larger, more fortified, etc., like towers and gates, such as were known to exist.
