Trade Worshop (kind of AoE3)
Hello guys, I'm coming with a suggestion for someone who knows modding - I don't really know if this is an already spoken idea around here, so be kind.

Everyone knows about the Trade Workshop buildings, it's an unused building that we can find in campaigns, but never actually build. In fact this building has no purpose. But some mods tried to make it buildable, giving it a function - like being a Feitoria-like for others civilization.

Here's my suggestion: what if Trade Workshops were Gaia buildings in the map that the first player to find it gains control, but could lose it? That could happen, for example, by building a Watch Tower beside the Trade Workshop. If other player destroy it, and build a Tower in the same place, the control of the Trade Workshop is given to that player and so on. The spot which the Tower has to be has a distinct terrain - maybe similar to the road.

What about the function? Well, It could work as a Market for you and your allies. Of course, since you cannot build it, just find it, is not unfair that you can trade with yourself and get some gold.
