I must say that I'm a bit confused about what #uwdamage is supposed to do. Does the unit take damage per each turn of combat? Or some amount of damage per month, sort of like Naiads outside of their home province?

Darkness in cave provinces before it goes live please :).

I'm much more interested by the #banefireshield
I don't know any unit which has this. I therefore wonder whether there'll be a new unit with it... I think it can definitely be a potent effect, seeing as banefire seems to ignore fire resistance.

Anthrax has it, as does the poison golem. Really, its not a particularly useful tag to have access to, since its easy enough to copystats from anthrax.

This will be cool if it's a new attribute that allows golems to go underwater, or something.

Just brainfarting but...
if it allows units to enter water for a short time only; then it might provide abit more balance by allowing a way for many land nations to at least try to take the water province bordering their shores.
If (later) the difference between sea and deep sea was fixed, we might get some balanced water nations out of it.

(at a guess I think Kristoffer is playing water nations more than cave nations)

The only way what you just said would make sense is if land units were all given poor amphibian and uw damage. Which would be stupid.

It's obvious what it does, the only question is the one Burn posed. Is it combat or stratmap damage?

My guess is Strategic map like #homesick (Which should be added this patch too! :))

It would be nice if #uwdamage was a tag that allowed ranged weapons to be used underwater... but I have the feeling the tag would be slightly different in that case.

The following line suggests that won't be the case:

* Units with the uwdamage attribute now actually takes damage from being under water.
