Pretender Design: Water Cults

[Endoperez]

I think that if going underwater needs either pretender with Water or Water Cult, who not use a nation that can use Water blessing together with Water Cult? Vanir of course, and to lesser extent Tuatha, White/Black Centaurs and Serpent Dancers benefit from Water Blessing, and are reasonable units to try to take on underwater. Especially with some help from the pretender.

I am not skilled enough to answer to Chazar's second post, but in some cases the option of going underwater might be worth the points. It might be worth it for Vanheim, whose Vanir could retreat to seas if an oversea-attack failed... But I don't even know if that is possible

Sorry, pressed for time, just a quick reminder:

You CANNOT use Special Themes and Water Cult at the same time, hence you can never find a Tuatha (or Demons of Heavenly Fires, or Hangadrott, etc. etc.) benefiting from a Water Cult.

This is either an intended or unintended feature of dom2 as it now stands.

(I personally have little or no experience with water cult in competetive MP (although I have often taken Ceremonial Faith with success), hence I will try to avoid saying something useless here.)
