I've seen this mentioned once before but not for a while so I thought I'd revisit it:
I've love to see a bridge piece added - like an empty harbor that all pieces (land, air, aquatic) can occupy, but that can't be captured for the purpose of building aquatic pieces.
I often want to build bridges across water areas while still concentrating the ship building in a particular part of the map to focus the fighting in a certain way and make the map tighter. the current method of bridges made of empty harbors compromises that.
---
Also, a quick plug - look up my maps and feel free to send me an invite!

This is a major piece of terrain needed in the game, no question.
I would argue to just turn the swamp into a lagoon, that serves this function. And drops the defense still quite a bit for every unit that lands on it, except air, but including water units.

I could get behind the Lagoon idea. I don't see any obvious drawback compared to a bridge at first thought.
On a related note it would be interesting to have a piece that actually improved some attributes when on a swamp tile. E.g. the amphibious Khrals crocodile concept that's been thrown around as a new piece concept.
Amphibious pieces in general would add a new element to the game.

A bridge piece is desperately needed. It would enhance map design hugely, and lead to better battlegrounds.

Wow, cool. This could all be solved by allowing naval units to travel over swamps. I like it! Their mobility would also be affected and Im fine with that! Shouldnt be too hard for xavi to add also. A whole nother hex might be a bit more of a pain.

There is a pretty thorough suggestion for how bridges could work here:
