Suggestion for new Oceana units

There should definitely be giant sea scorpions.

Yes, I remember them, but am not sure that they would be thematic for Oceania (and these, by the way, could be used as animated carcasses, unlike ammonites!)

i'd prefer too other more tipically "seaish" animals to be implemented rather than scorpions ^^ we already have many.

Peace

Well, maybe not specifically Oceania, but they'd make great underwater independents-undead or not.

I'm definitely all for a larger prehistoric presence in the game.

Um sea scorpions, by the way, are "seaish" animals.

Note the use of the word *sea* in their name.

They're not even related to land scorpions, infact.

K, k, I was just saying before that, if I must choose between a sea scorpion whatsoever and an orca or narwhale or manta to be implemented, I prefer the big fishies

Since consensus seems to be that Oceania's theme is "the ocean fights back", I'm just thinking, why would the ocean only fight back with the cooler and stronger, but less numerous, creatures? Why not give Oceania easy access to a ritual to summon large amounts of your average amphibious sea creature, like a sea dog, as well? Perhaps an aquatic-only version of Summon Animals that summons a few less, but more powerful, units (like Monster Fish), too?
