Hmmmm... Toxic waste, radition polluted water... Sounds to me like the
Greenies might have a little competition from some a few Toxic Shaman, both
caretakers and corruptors.  That could add an entirely different dimesion
to it- you can use the shaman as either allies or foes.  Or, quite possibly
both.

I seem to recall a set of water combat rules in the Great Maze boxed set.
Not sure, though- I just borrowed it from a friend for a while.
