Re: Suggestion for new Oceana units
The reason I really like the Scylla is because
1) It fits very well thematically with a nation that already has Sirens
2) It fits very well from a gameplay point of view for a nation that *really* someting amphibious, poison resistant, and tough enough to frontline.
3) It wouldn't need to be just like a hydra, and knowing Illwinter I doubt it would. It could be smaller, have no poison aura, no regeneration, more armor, more fear, is a berserker, doesn't use the same head loss mechanic, etc. There are lots of ways that it could be made to play drastically different than the hydra, and the very ambiguousness about it's nature plus a little creative license give a lot of leeway.
4) It's just hella cool
