Dom III sitll gets some parental attention

[Gandalf Parker]

Just brainfarting but...
if it allows units to enter water for a short time only; then it might provide abit more balance by allowing a way for many land nations to at least try to take the water province bordering their shores.
If (later) the difference between sea and deep sea was fixed, we might get some balanced water nations out of it.

(at a guess I think Kristoffer is playing water nations more than cave nations)

The only way what you just said would make sense is if land units were all given poor amphibian and uw damage. Which would be stupid.

It's obvious what it does, the only question is the one Burn posed. Is it combat or stratmap damage?

[Foodstamp]

My guess is Strategic map like #homesick (Which should be added this patch too! )

It would be nice if #uwdamage was a tag that allowed ranged weapons to be used underwater... but I have the feeling the tag would be slightly different in that case.

The following line suggests that won't be the case:

* Units with the uwdamage attribute now actually takes damage from being under water.

Shows what I get for paying attention :P

[chrispedersen]

fire creatures, vampires should take damage from being underwater.

I think the change from odd to even numbers was one of the most keenly anticipated. I'm glad they've listened to the fans on that count.

Are you being sarcastic about the version numbers? They always do a preliminary even numbered version before the odd numbered one. Which means we may see darkness in caves before it goes live .
