Default Re: Effect of Hot/Cold scales

But be aware that it isnt "water nations" but "water" itself which seems to avoid the affects. So your amphibian units will not only take a hit for being on land, but all of the temperature affects also. That takes a weak unit to barely moving. So unless you can be sure of attacking outside of your dominions and then quickly building land units, you can really force yourself into a corner.

Of course for defensive playing, or larger maps, it can be a useful thing to take harsh temps as a water nation.
