Could be accomplished with a special type of unit that can't be selected, and is visually beneath other units.

In regards to it specifically targeting Wargus, do we have any graphics which could make use of this?

This could also be done with patches, as seen in BOS Wars. I've asked whether or not patches will be backported.

well i was trying to add a bridge, actually i have graphics for that, from a game called warwind, but i cannot make it works, the script is something like the one below

--- Bridge Building ---
DefineUnitType("unit-bridge", { Name = "Bridge",
  Image = {"file", "ww/neutral/terrain/bridge.png", "size", {72, 72}},
  Animations = "animations-bridge", Icon = "icon-unused",
  Costs = {"time", 10, "gold", 500, "wood", 200},
-- RepairHp = 4,
-- RepairCosts = {"gold", 1, "wood", 1},
  Construction = "construction-land-5",
  Speed = 0,
  HitPoints = 0,
  DrawLevel = 0,
  TileSize = {2, 2}, BoxSize = {64, 64},
  SightRange = 1,
  Armor = 5, BasicDamage = 0, PiercingDamage = 0, Missile = "missile-none",
  Points = 100,
  IsNotSelectable = true,
  BuilderOutside = true,
  Decoration = true,
  Corpse = "unit-destroyed-2x2-place",
-- ExplodeWhenKilled = "missile-explosion",
  Type = "naval",
  ShoreBuilding = true,
  Building = true, VisibleUnderFog = true,
  Sounds = {
    "selected", "bridge-selected",
-- "acknowledge", "human-blacksmith-acknowledge",
-- "ready", "human-blacksmith-ready",
    "help", "bridge-alarm",
    "dead", "building destroyed"} } )

How doesn't it work? If you want units to be able to walk over it, you should put the bridge on land. You'll also want the tilesize to be 0, but I believe right now if you put that it would crash the engine.

Can you help with this problem?
