| 0s | hey polytopians the rework of the |
|---|---|
| 3s | Aquarian has emerged from the deep we |
| 5s | added new |
| 6s | content reworked old content and gave |
| 10s | the Aquarian tons of new stuff to play |
| 11s | with welcome to the channel let's Dive |
| 14s | Right |
| 15s | In the Aquarian have always been water |
| 17s | focused which makes sense they're fish |
| 20s | people so we wanted to align them to |
| 21s | that idea much better blending them with |
| 23s | the water into some very unique ways of |
| 26s | course that affinity for the Seas comes |
| 27s | at a cost as the Aquarian do have |
| 30s | difficulty land but don't worry they've |
| 32s | got some tricks up their metaphorical |
| 33s | sleeves to help them contest those pesky |
| 35s | land |
| 37s | cities all Aquarian land units have been |
| 39s | replaced with mermaid variants which |
| 42s | means they have a tail and it means that |
| 43s | all the Aquarian land units are now |
| 45s | amphibious otherwise they function |
| 48s | identically to their landbased |
| 49s | counterparts Aquarian now starts with a |
| 51s | warrior their unique flooded terrain and |
| 53s | the ability to build land structures on |
| 55s | the |
| 56s | water and speaking of flooded terrain |
| 59s | let's talk about that |
| 61s | the aquarium territory is made up of |
| 62s | this new type of land called flooded |
| 65s | which is also accessible to Naval units |
| 68s | once they research the waterways Tech |
| 70s | Aquarian land units are also able to |
| 72s | spread this flood but be careful |
| 74s | flooding a tile will take the units |
| 76s | entire turn so make sure you keep them |
| 78s | safe while they do so and no you can't |
| 81s | flood a mountain think about it other |
| 84s | tribes are able to landfill a tile which |
| 87s | is like flooding but in reverse |
| 92s | before we talk about their new units |
| 94s | let's talk about how we changed their |
| 95s | old units amphibians haven't gotten any |
| 98s | important changes that they just simply |
| 100s | lost the Fortified trait so they won't |
| 102s | gain defense bonuses in cities but |
| 104s | otherwise they're perfect tradtions have |
| 107s | been moved from the role of Speedy |
| 109s | Shoreline harassment to mobile mop-up |
| 112s | crew as they lost the fortify and Escape |
| 114s | abilities in exchange for persist much |
| 116s | like the Knight it replaces their attack |
| 119s | stats have been slightly adjusted from 3 |
| 121s | to 2.5 but they're still ranged and more |
| 124s | than able to clear a beach head with |
| 126s | minimal help the crab stats are |
| 129s | essentially unchanged but now they have |
| 131s | the autof flood ability which allows |
| 133s | them to automatically flood land tiles |
| 135s | they walk onto Speedy amphibious tanky |
| 139s | and able to bring their fishy friends |
| 140s | onto land without effort the crab is now |
| 142s | the Kaiju we all knew they could be |
| 145s | instead of the scouts and rammers and |
| 146s | bombers everyone else uses we figured it |
| 148s | was time to make Aquarian a bit more fun |
| 150s | by giving them new Naval units you'll |
| 153s | find sharks in marine life the |
| 155s | replacement tech for sailing which also |
| 157s | allows all Aquarian units to move onto |
| 159s | deep water tiles sharks are quick all |
| 162s | around melee units that excel at zooming |
| 163s | around the waters and eating |
| 164s | unsuspecting ships since they have |
| 166s | surprise they're able to swim up onto |
| 168s | enemy units and attack without |
| 170s | retaliation sharks are great for taking |
| 172s | control of the Seas these giant |
| 174s | jellyfish are unlocked in navigation |
| 176s | they're defensive units that function |
| 178s | similarly to juggernauts dealing damage |
| 180s | with their tentacles and the radius |
| 181s | around them as they move unlike |
| 184s | juggernauts enemy units that move next |
| 186s | to them will also be damaged so they're |
| 188s | good for holding down an area that even |
| 191s | includes dealing damage when you train |
| 192s | them jellies aren't able to become |
| 194s | veterans but they do have 20 hp so |
| 196s | they're pretty tanky this spiky fellow |
| 199s | is a puffer and they're unlocked in the |
| 201s | mathematics technology as a replacement |
| 203s | for catapults the puffer's drench |
| 205s | ability allows it to flood any tile that |
| 207s | attacks and you can even use it to flood |
| 209s | tiles that aren't occupi by an enemy |
| 211s | they good for prepping an area before |
| 212s | you invade or just long range |
| 215s | bombardment from the |
| 217s | ocean being fish people the Aquarian |
| 220s | don't get ports anymore but they do get |
| 222s | one and a half new aquatic buildings |
| 224s | instead unlocked at the new Waterway |
| 226s | Tech which replaces roads the atol is |
| 229s | the Aquarian answer to things like roads |
| 231s | and ports creating trade connections |
| 233s | between cities they're a lot like the |
| 235s | sanes melium but can only connect cities |
| 238s | over ocean coast and flooded areas |
| 240s | within three tiles they cost five stars |
| 243s | and can only be built on aquatic tiles |
| 245s | so you may need to flood some tiles to |
| 246s | get some cities to connect our friends |
| 249s | the aquafarms are back as you might know |
| 252s | we added aquafarms to all tribes in the |
| 255s | path of the ocean update but removed |
| 256s | them for feeling redundant well they're |
| 258s | the perfect fit for Aquarian allowing |
| 260s | them to get population on those Coastal |
| 262s | and Aquatic cities they cost five stars |
| 265s | provide two population and even work |
| 266s | with windmills you can find them in the |
| 269s | aquaculture Tech |
| 271s | napping those land cities is now a |
| 272s | little tougher for the Aquarian so we |
| 274s | gave them an alternative if you uncover |
| 276s | a ruin on the water instead of getting |
| 278s | the normal bonuses you'll get a city |
| 281s | yeah a city on the water it functions |
| 283s | like any other city and can even be |
| 285s | captured by your opponents use these |
| 287s | lost cities to reinforce your troops or |
| 289s | hold down an |
| 291s | area the construction Tech is a little |
| 293s | bit different for Aquarian instead of |
| 296s | burning forests they can create spots |
| 297s | for Farms on flooded terrain by using |
| 299s | the fertilizability other minor things |
| 302s | you should be aware of are that roads |
| 304s | can be built on the flooded land but |
| 305s | Aquarian units can't use them I mean |
| 308s | they've got flippers to give us your |
| 311s | thoughts on this rework head to the |
