An aquatic vector of the [[Mind Worms]], the '''Isle of the Deep''' is closely associated with Mind Worms and [[Sea Fungus]]. The floating shell of an Isle of the Deep, formed by the secretions of the colony's individual members, is often used as a nesting place by Mind Worms, and can even float large land units. Isles of the Deep and other alien creatures can engage in [[Psi Combat]], in which weapon and armor strengths are ignored. [[Morale]] level is quite important in defending against Isles of the Deep and other alien units.

Like any native unit, players can also release Isles into the wild, to harass and disrupt an enemy. Native lifeforms stationed in xenofungus do not require [[support]].

An aquatic vector of the Mind Worms native life form, the Isle of the Deep is closely associated with Sea Fungus. The floating shell of an Isle of the Deep, formed by the secretions of the colony’s individual members, is often used as a nesting place by Mind Worms and Spore Launchers, and can even float large land units much like a troop transport.

With proper breeding and bonding techniques, Isles of the Deep can be bred in captivity and controlled by skilled brood trainers.
