Sounds reasonable and avoids the Pretender specific issues. A neat solution.

Everyone voted "Good Idea" except one person.

I wonder who that one person was.

2N, 1E, I would say. And giving all the survivals would be enough, as they mainly affect the change of getting diseased when starving...
IIRC right and they also let you move through special-terrain provinces without them slowing you down adding one more movement point ABOVE that would be too good. And I don't think this should give Haste, as that is quite powerful in battle. Making a unit faster in battle would be reasonable, but it shouldn't double that amount...

Haste increases movement speed only, which isn't that powerful. It's no different than the boots of long strides, which are construction 0, nature 1.

I agree with this, and although Tuna's mod is a good "quick fix", Norfleet's suggestion is far superior, and affects more than just the pretender's role in Miasma games.

I would love to see the "new swamp survival" in a future patch.

Yup sounds good. Improved Swamp Survival.

Not the ring though, sorry. Get rid of the MR maybe, or at least reduce it to 1.

What non-C'tis units get swamp survival?

I'd imagine (although I don't have the game fired up in front of me) that at least some of Pythium's Serpent Cult units get it. I could check at lunchtime.
