Id like to suggest today that Pets be introduced into the game. Perhaps you could tame a wild bear, or breed dogs/wolves and sell the puppies. There are so many possibilities here. I for one think it a great Idea for players to be able to take a dog out with them hunting. Perhaps the Animals could even be leveled up via their own humor type system. Once they die, they are dead though.
The animals could also act as another line of defense for your lands. Why not have 20 wild dogs guarding your mine? Or 5 Wild Bears trained to attack Raiders when they try anything funny.
Warring against other towns would become very much more interesting too. You could start by sending in a wave of Bears to take out or weaken the defences, then a few waves of wild dogs to take out any defenders. Then when they are done, Send in the Men
Of Cource the defenders could also be well protected with pets of their own 
With the introduction of Moles which can tunnel around and disturb the ground above them; you could try and capture some moles and send them against the towns walls and buildings...
Thanks,
