Perhaps someone already asked for this but I would like to see additional crossing arrows inserted on the map to show point where land units can cross water such as the straight between Denmark and Sweden, across the Bosporus, and between Morocco and Spain (if thats allowed?)

That is a good idea. I'll talk to Pixelpusher.

Well, if we are thinking about this, I would like:
a) a crossing arrow to Dover
b) the ability for fleets in the surrounding sea area to indict use of the crossing arrows.
This would give some incentive for others to try to push the British out of the channel (and some reason for the British to keep fleets there).

Several current areas should be treated as crossing arrows - Denmark-Malmo, Sicily-Calabria, Finland-Uppland etc.

Naval interdiction of crossing arrows might be feasible to add in a future patch.

It would be neat to have a sort of secondary crossing arrow for places (such as English Channel) that are harder to cross -- give a bigger initiative penalty and don't allow large armies/corps to cross.

Glad to hear that. My memory still perishes that my Russian hordes were slaughtered in a single stroke in Sicily by the French who dashed to the "island" (though not really so in the game) in horrific droves.
