Yeah the wet ones are for underwater operations, obviously :]

Thought that was well known. Don't they also get extra AP?

I knew the wet ones were *supposedly* for underwater operations, but I could never before figure out why, since their stats are exactly the same on the commander screen except no buckler. (Unlike, say, Atlantis' Deep Ones vs. Atlantaean Militia.)

...Phoenix Pyre doesn't work in the magic nightmare from Vengeance of the Dead? Your caster neither explodes nor comes back to life, even if he's under 100 fatigue. I wonder if it's a special environment that prevents #secondshape from working.

Phoenix Pyre probably doesn't use secondshape to work. You could test it with a unit that definitely does (use secondshape) though.

Phoenix Pyre does (seem to) use secondshape or something like it--it's known that Chayot with Phoenix Pyre up don't get their #secondshape if they die with over 100 fatigue, they just explode and die.

You're right that you could double-check by VotD'ing a unit of Chayot or a Machakan spider knight commander or something.

If you make a unique summon your prophet, and it gets killed, and you summon it back within 6 months, it's still your prophet (Ice Devil in my case).

Things I don't know:
- What if someone else summoned your killed prophet unit?
- What if it was more than 6 months and you summoned it again?

In some cases its better to wait to increment the holy power.

Iassacharite Sybyls (Gath) can enter the Sybilline Caves (Arcos special capital site) and make use of its scrying ability.

Re: Did you know that? (Dominions trivia)
 
Are those the only two units that can?

Enterable (is that a real word? :p) sites are not restricted, AFAIK.

I can confirm that Earth mages can use Agartha's scrying. I assume that you can enter the Void Gate as well, you just won't have much/any luck.
