It'll come out when/if it comes out.  And a five month old patchnote thread is totally the appropriate place for this discussion.

I understand this is in active development, likely being tested rigorously in one of the parallel universes that the GMs host.

I keep reading things on lakes and locks and how they will soon be worth some thing and to date all it amounts to is just talk, it is ether going to happen or it won't which is it, and if it is going to happen when?

Teragram, the change hasn't been fully implemented.  When it is implemented, the lakes and lochs will become fully "passable" for all army purposes, including sieges.  Players said they wanted this tradeoff when we were asked about lake and loch sov a while back.

LOCHS, LAKES & COUNTER CLAIMING SOVEREIGNTY
Posted: 25 Apr 2014 at 17:06
The 40,675 Lochs and Lakes on elgea are going to be opened up as food sovereignable squares, in the same way as coastline currently is.

Here is one of many I have seen followed by a couple of thoughts on the matter.
http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/#/World/Map/-329/431Unclaimed
Loch
[Impassable]
wood
 clay
 iron
 stone
 food
0 0 0 0 9
Additional Sovereignty Structure Bonus
You cannot claim Sovereignty here
How about a way to use magic if sov cannot be claimed. Just how feasible is it to have an impassible assessable yet cannot siege from, etc. Perhaps adjoining sovs could get bonuses. Or just make such locations total 0's.

Yup, still can't occupy lakes and lochs either.

Could this be fixed soon? Thanks!

Many thanks,

Although there is food on the map, those squares have not been enabled for 'Send Army' (for purposes of claiming sovereignty) in the Map UI. (I might be mistaken of course!)

I was rather hoping that volcanos would eventually do ... something.  Perhaps erupt with some possibility of damage to nearby cities and some possibility of spawning a rare mineral mine ... something like that.  Would be an interesting way to introduce new resources.  "Floods" of lakes and rivers could spawn rare herbs.  All in the long term, of course.

Well, there generally were (historically) unfortunate consequences for living on both swamps - and (certainly on active) volcanoes; and I'm not quite ready to introduce pestilence and/or eruptions into Illy Smile

But it's worth putting onto the rainy day list, which it's now on.

Best,
