Here's another race idea:

New Race: Atlantics

Description: They are a race of fish and reptiles from the seven seas and live like pirates and pillagers and warriors that seek a fair fight. As they claimed that the Pyreans attacked them first, they sought to win their feud against them. They consist of assassins and killers that lack range, but are fast and silent. They don't have an aerial unit, but they have the power to shut down other aerial unit, playing like the Titans, but powerful in the seas and all can traverse through water but non-aquatics can't attack while in water. Just like the Pyreans, they can't convert but can't be converted as their skins are immune to conversions.

Unit list and summary:

Ground Light:

Leaper: Basic Atlantic infantry, can sneak through everywhere with camouflage (basically, bury), fast and is capable of attacking aerial units through leaping, can move at water and is automatically camouflaged, but can't attack while in water. Costs 100 credits

Anglerfish: An underwater nurse that can heal everything in its path and moves just as fast as the Leaper in water. It has a ability that can blind anything in one turn. Costs 200 credits.

Ground Heavy:

Armored Croc: A heavy armored fighting reptile that is capable of brawling at the expense of movement and vision. It has an ability to leap into the fray or to drag a unit to itself and it doesn't suffer from non-desert environments. Costs 300 credits.

Crab Panzer: A heavily armored crab that dominates in 1on1 fights, just make sure to not be adjacent with more than 1 enemy units. Costs 500 credits.

Desintegrator: The race's heavy artillery that moves real fast and is armored, but at an expense of range. It can also sneak with camouflage so it doesn't suffer from getting outranged and can inflict Trident. Costs 650 credits.

Part 2 is in next reply.

Aquatic:

U-Shark: A de-facto anti ship unit that is automatically camouflaged outside of battle to sneak again, but it's defenseless against everything else. Costs 500 credits.

Battle Whale: The race's ultimate aquatic unit. It puts anything to shame with its superb speed, armor, and firepower, but it's very expensive. Costs 1,000 credits.

Ability Summary:

Trident: Trident is inflicted by the Atlantics' ranged units (excluding the aquatic ones). It works in 3 different ways: biological, material, and extraterrestrial. All Atlantic units gain 1 Hp lifesteal to biological races (Sapiens, Khraleans, and themselves) for every 3 Hp damage dealt, deal 2 extra damage to material races (Titans, Pyreans, and Enyalios), and poisons extraterrestrial races (Phasers, Convergence, and Fobos). After attacking units with Trident, the ability disappears until inflicted again.

Amphibian:

Launcher: A ranged Leaper armed with missiles that can deal potential damage from afar against any unit and can inflict Trident, but it's defenseless at point-blank range, but it can use camouflage to avoid that problem. Cost 250 credits.

Note: Trident Poisoning is basically a powerful Plague without the contagion, will always inflict 2 Hp in 1 turn

Further unit summaries are to be posted with each of my replies

Unit Information: U-Shark

Cost: 450
Mobility: 11
Vision: 4
Type: Aquatic

Attack:

-Ground Light: 0
-Ground Heavy: 0

-Aquatic: 11
-Amphibian: 11

Attack Range: 1

Defense: 10

Attack after move: Yes
Repair: +1
Action/Turn: 2
Special Ability: Camouflage

This can destroy other aquatic units fast with its camouflage ability and can repair fast, but consequently, it's defenseless against everything else. Use this unit to pressure all eneny aquatic units to the extremes.

Note: Camouflage+ allows U-Sharks to move without penalty and are automatically camouflaged when they break contact with the enemy while they can emerge and attack after move at the same time and retain their +3 additional attack when emerged.

Any harbors they own can also serve as a mini medical bay, able to repair units faster by x2.

Unit list and summary:

I'll think of them, but I'm currently hungry at the moment :P

Ability Summary:

Same :P

Further unit summaries are to be posted with each of my replies.

This is a fantastic race idea. I'm excited to see what's what.

Maybe all of their units should be able to be built on naval bases ? Or at least an expanded number of them ?

So, what are the strengths and weaknesses of this race:

Stengths:

+Great at close ranges
+Camouflage
+All traverse in water
+Great at brawling

Weaknesses:

-Below average vision (at 4, only Crab Panzer and Battle Whale have better vision)
-Poor attack range, succeptible to being outranged

In conclusion, with proper timing and stratrgy, you'll destroy your enemy's frontline very fast without costing too much of your own. For those fighting against Aquatics, you'll need range and vision to catch them off guard.

As archenemies, which race do you think will win, Atlantics or Pyreans?

Does camouflage work without water?

yes, but non-aquatic units are automatically camouflaged in water, tho they can't attack while in water
