Default Something I don\'t understand...

Hi! I'm new on this board and to Dominions unverse. I have been playing around with the demo of Dominions 2 (done that for 3 days now), but there is something I don't understand and that is: When I choose I wanna be a green Dragon when you make your character it doesn't show up in the game. Everytime I choose the green Dragon it become a Grand Druid instead. Is there something I'm missing here or...?

By the way, I have ordered the full Version of it Really great game

Thanks

with best regards
Thilock Dominus

There should be a "Change Shape" order available if you click on the druid...

*POOF* here comes the Green Dragon...

(actually I have never tried a dragon, but this is how it works for other shapeshifter like the smoking mirror)

I am thinking that the Change Shape order should be documented better, this question has rosen up quite a few times already... The druid-shape of the dragon should have a description telling he is a dragon in human form, because dragon in human form is much different from normal druid...

You can also queue a transformation as part of the combat script, if I'm not mistaken. Cast some protective and/or empowerment spells, then go drake and rip 'em up!

I agree though that it should be clearer the Druid/Frost Father/Whatever is really a dragon in human form. This certainly isn't the first time this question has popped up!

Doesnt the description talk about them using the human form and going dragon when they are hurt? Thats kindof an automatic thing with the form-change button being a nice thing to find. IMHO

Now if they started as a dragon and you couldnt locate all the magic you game them then THAT would be a bigger problem
