Caelum, Mictlan, Ermor and Agartha are my very cool nations. Across all ages.

Agartha is considered on the weak side in MP but the excellent storyline/theme and good summons make Agartha cool.

Maybe a way to increase the appeal on aquatic nations could be to add some spells/items allowing a certain amount of aquatic troops to become amphibians ?

Yes, a bigger version of amulet of the fish which allows sea only units access to the land.

Also, perhaps a new ability on leaders that allow them to bring a set amount of sea units on dry land.

Even if they get poor amphibian, it would be alot better.

Sometimes as a sea nation you are praying for a bad random event where 1 of your provinces gets attacked. So you can feed your unneeded and expensive upkeep sea only troops in to it slowly. Just to get rid of them.

Yeah a lot of people have asked for something like that, allowing aquatic only units to get on land in the mid-late game. A global or an item basically.

The best (obviously absolutely IMHO) thing discussed about this matter so far is Thetis' Blessing working both ways, really. It opens so many strategic possibilities my mind just blows. But I don't wanna go off-topic

Interesting. Lanka came out pretty high.
I wonder if its one of the nations that can be duplicated by MOD. Then I could offer Lanka-vs-Lanka blitz games.

It can't quite be done, because of the reanimation.

Well actually it could - you'd just have to base the copy nation on MA Ermor.
