Midjiwan has unleashed a significant update for The Battle of Polytopia: a complete overhaul of the Aquarion Tribe. This marks a substantial revamp of the game's first special tribe, originally introduced in 2017.
Aquarion's Aquatic Transformation
The Aquarion units have received a dramatic makeover. Land units now boast mermaid tails, making them amphibious or fully aquatic. This grants them effortless water traversal, although land movement is slower. A new flooded terrain mechanic allows land and naval units to occupy the same spaces for the first time.
Buildings have also adapted to the aquatic environment. Construction on water is now possible, and Lost Cities are hidden within deep-sea ruins, providing ideal strategic bases for seafaring players. A new structure, the Atoll, connects water cities, eliminating the need for roads. Aqua Crops, a vital resource, are now permanently available. These function similarly to land-based crops.
New Aquatic Creatures
The update introduces several new sea creatures:
- Sharks: Provide surprise attacks.
- Puffers: Offer long-range bombardment capabilities.
- Jellies: Employ electric shock attacks.
Returning favorites, the Tridentions and Crabs, also feature enhancements. Crabs now flood tiles they traverse, synergizing perfectly with the mermaid-tailed troops. See the changes in action:

Midjiwan's revitalization of the Aquarion Tribe is impressive. Note that Lost Cities appear at level 3 and include a pre-built wall.
