The sizes of large creatures in Dom3 are often out of whack.

This is only a sample list, since I don't have access to the full unit databases on this computer. However, if people agree that this is a problem, I'd be willing to put my work where my mouth is, and sift through the database to come up with a balanced list of monster size recommendations.

Dragon: 6
Elephant: 6
Kraken: 6
Shark (large): 6
Basalt King: 5
Seraph: 6
Lumber Construct: 5
Cyclops: 5
Father of Winters: 6
Gryphon Rider: 5 (Note that Pegasus Rider = 4)
Catoblepas: 6

Is an elephant really as large as a dragon? Judging by sprites, the Kraken looks much smaller than a dragon, or even than a basalt king. The Seraph looks smaller than a Cyclops, though it does have a huge wingspan when attacking. But should a Cyclops be smaller than a Father of Winters, equal to an amazon on gryphonback? And the Catoblepas seems like it ought to be bull-sized, not elephant-sized.

The shark is an obvious problem: even a great white shark tops out around 5000 lbs, while African elephants can easily be 12000. There's no way a shark should be elephant-sized, let alone dragon-sized.

So: monster sizes don't seem to be broadly consistent. They should be!
