Interesting to see your specific suggestions. And here's some of my own comments:

These units are amphibious. And their immobile counterparts are buildable on water. They can morph to each other on water as well.

The crawling bombs are excellent and fun units. However, I'm not sure having a few units from random land facs able to go sea would be enough - perhaps sea facs could get their own units using mechanics like this.

Also, what do you mean by swimming? Walk on sea bottom or swim on surface?

Cloaking at sea could indeed make it much more interesting. However, cloaked underwater units might prove annoying and problematic, so this would probably require some extra balancing efforts afterwards.

Why
not,
I
suppose.
It
would
be
consistent
to
have
all
striders
be
amphibious,
and
I
can't
see
it
massively
changing
the
overall
balance,
for
the
worse
at
least.
Only
worry
would
be,
that
scorpion
would
become
a
unit
able
to
go
anywhere
on
any
map.
Currently
there
is
no
such
unit
apart
from
recon
commander.

But

this'd

OP
or
anything.

Commanders (lvl5) have their own set of problems, and imo it's best to keep commanders unable to fight at sea, if at all possible, until people are satisfied with sea balance as a whole.

Indeed, sea is pretty much immune to nukes, which removes the stalemate-busting power of nukes from the game. Easiest way to make sea play the same as land in this regard would be to remove antinuke from Reef and Leviathan, and make Protector buildable on water (floating).

However,
it
might
be
even
better
to
look
at
the
things
that
make
mid/lategame
sea
a
boring
porcfest
and
address
those
issues.
Like
perhaps
looking
at
making
shields
unusable
at
water
again.

shields
used

underwater,
and
I
don't

anyone
complained
about
this)

I gotta agree, hovers being immune to torpedoes was interesting and gave hovers a distinct role in sea battles.

But
I
don't
think
it's
impossible
to
balance
sea
to
be
fun,
even
with
torps
being
able
to
hit
hovers.
