I feel like I hardly ever see anyone choose underwater nations. This'll be interesting.

What scales and what dominion power did you go for yourself?

I went order 2, production 1, heat 2, growth 2, luck 2 and magic 1 with dominion 7. Going without a major bless left me a lot of room to take some good scales.

Is there any point to taking Heat/Cold scales unless you're one of the specific nations with units that benefit from it?

I like to name my mages with rare crosspaths and prophets in ALL CAPS to make them even easier to find.

Name your pretender .SOVEREIGN.CITIZEN. and that'd be a great combo.

What happens if you only have water provinces and you recruit non-water-breathing mercenaries? :v:

Do they just show up and then drown immediately?

How far in the past is each turn from when it's posted, roughly?

So wait, if someone borrowed Nazca's password to send a message, did they also waste his turn for him? :v:

Got any big "global" maps yet so we can have an idea of how much of the oceans you own?

Am I remembering wrong or doesn't Marignon have some okay aquatic/amphibious units?

Last but certainly not least, Pelagia�s fort has been breached! It�s happening! Normally I would send in a scout or something to see what he has, but honestly I�m not too worried about Pelagia given how little fight he�s put up. I�m just gonna storm the fort next turn.

Tune in next turn to see a conquered Pelagia! Or see my army completely destroyed in an embarrassing manner!

Blind storming forts may not be clever strategy, but it adds to the fun for the viewers by keeping things unpredictable. :v:

How many underwater nations are there in Dom 4, anyway? Oceania, Pelagia, Atlantis and R'lyeh? I was wondering whether it might be possible to do an entirely underwater game, everyone picks an underwater nation, because if they're weaker than the land nations, maybe they might be more balanced against each other.

Misfortune sounds like one of the worst possible negative scales to pick. Everything else feels like something you could potentially work with, but heavy Misfortune will screw over almost anyone and any strategy.
