EA Oceania - Knight of the deep too good?

[llamabeast]

I did, yep - rather loose wording there on my part.

[archaeolept]

hey, nothing stops you from gift of reasoning them... ;p

[Zeldor]

ALL of them?

[VedalkenBear]

On that note, I fully support any item that would allow aquatic troops to go above-water. It would mean the most to Oceania and Rlyeh (EA each)

[Sombre]

Yeah I'd like to see that item. A barrel of water would make as much sense as barrel of air does.

[PyroStock]

Both EA Oceania & Rlyeh have national amphibians to hire in mass to access land & conquer indys, like an island, even early in the game. Most land nations require gems and research just to get into the water, even a small lake, unless they happen to get lucky with indy provinces.

An Amulet of the Fish is twice as many gems as a Ring of Waterbreathing, so using that scale a barrel of water would cost 25W + 25A gems, but at that difficulty even a 65W might be preferred.

I haven't dove into the sea nations yet, but do aquatics with the amulet of fish get the same penalties on land that non-aquatics get in water?

[Ironhawk]

Water nations already have a huge advantage in the form of the sea barrier to protect them. I think its fine that they not be allowed to bring their best troops out of the water.
