Tier 3 Upgrades - Design Ideas (by BeYo_OnD)

The main idea of this proposal is to add more Tier 3 upgrades (T3) to the game, spread out across factions in a more intuitive and satisfying way. Currently the only faction to have a T3 unit is Rana with its Elder Dragon. This means that the system is in place and can be expanded upon. Crucial to this is the how.

Core aspects of the T3 system as envisioned by yours truly:

1. Every faction should have at least one T3;
2. Any creature can be a candidate for a T3, even small/early game ones;
3. The T3 must feel more special/quirky compared to its T2 version; (advising against a simple stat increase)
4. The T3 intuitively benefits a style of play, such that the player recognizes its strategic value and can plan for it;
5. Upgrading the associated dwelling to Tier 3 has the prerequisite of a Research Building; (current Rana design)
6. T3 creatures have their own randomization rules on a map to not upset balance/progression;

Please consider at least some of these ideas. Thank you!
