2 Water provinces related questions

[carlosib]

I've started looking into the water nations and this questions came to my mind:

1) Suppose i'm playing an earth only nation (with no recruitable acuatic, anph nor poor anph units) and i capture a water province (with summons or water breathing items, etc). I then want to set some PD in that province...¿what PD units do I get? ¿Do i get my nation units and they drown? ¿do i get units native to that province? ¿can i set a PD at all?

2) Suppose i'm in a water province and i cast Wind Ride bringing a not water breathing commander to my province. ¿Does he drown before he has the chance of a fight?

none, no, yes, no

Wind ride is bugged, anyway.

But in a more general sense, yes if by any means someone who can not breath water is brought to a underwater province they immediately die. Well, er, immediate being sometime between the magic phase and the movement phase of turn processing. (they don't get to fight)

How exactly is Wind Ride bugged? It's not in the shortlist.

I know it "will fail for commanders size 5+ or earth magic >= 3 or if ethereal or glamour or on pretenders." But I recently tried to Wind Ride a basic Ivy King (3Nature, Size3), which failed.

It only works at adjacent provinces, at best, or something. Yeah, it was my favorite spell in Dom2, too. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/Injured.gif
