The Deepening: What Exactly Does It Do?

[mcwill123]

Hi. I've been having a great time playing Orbis as the Illians. One of my cities produced the Deepening ritual. Its been several turns and the only possible effect that I can see is that some ice is now farmable. Not even by a river. Could someone please supply some of the details as to what the effects of this ritual actually are? Thanks in advance.

Gives you reason to destroy Illians as soon as possible
This, incredibility annoying ritual changes some grassland (and plains ?) tiles into tundra, and spawns equally annoying Blizzards. It affects entire map, no matter how far from they you are.

Yeah, Illians specializes in annoying other civs...
This is the only thing that they are good at

Sounds like my kind of game! My Illians are actually pretty good at beating up on Calabim and Clan. Oh and Amurites.

I did not say 'good at beating up', just 'good at annoying'


In my opinion, Illians are rather like pests than like predators

So far it's been a very fun game. You should try them some time.

I do not say that I do not like to play them... Sometimes even I want to be a pain in the a**
