Some questions about water

I started working tiles for the lego mod, and realized the current water probably wouldn't work to well, so I have the following questions:

1. Is it possible to make water non-transparent? (lego water would be solid)
2. Is it possible to make units esentially "walk on water" but only if they can normally enter water? (lego units would simple traverse the water, not really enter it)
3. Would it be possible to make water act like most other tiles? (place level with current land, and tile in the same ways)

This might be better in map dev, or mdl editing, but I thought I would try here first.

You'd pretty much have to either copy ALL of the water tiles to look the same (i don't know if deleting would work) make the lego units flying units or give them a swim mode in which there height remains above water, as for non-transperancey - you'd have to make a existing tile look like water.

change the water tile to a lego peice and use the thingy that Illidan has to walk ontop o the water (hopefully u got TFT cuz u need)
