Look at my avatar... I'm a dragoon!

a dragoon might not be to bad, but if it's a dragon, i wouldn't waste time peeing my pants. i'd simply do my absolute best to break the lightspeed barrier.

Well, it's both a dragon, and a dragoon. A kind of cavalry, not sure how it's spelled in english though.
Now the Swedish Dragoons are mechanized.

Dragoons are a type of soldier that are trained and armed to fight on foot or while mounted.

A dragon is a mythical beast that usually has the appearance of a lizard. Dragons may include many features, like wings, the distinct ability to breath fire. Occaisionally, a dragon's breath may be different from what is considered the regular Version, in that their breath may generate a great amount of ice, poison, or lighting. It is said that some dragons possess a great amount of intelligence, enough so to conduct deals with other creatures.

What is the tech cost - high or medium? I scanned the setup, but couldn't find it. I am considering to join, although I'm already in NGC4 - but I will be kicked soon there as the somewhat strange map setup was not what was announced, and my race now totally sucks.

the dragons that don't breath fire are what i consider 'dragonlance' or 'Margarat Weis and Tracy Hickman' dragons as as far as i know, they were the ones to invent them.

"Dragonlance dragons" are AD&D dragons, "invented" long before the series. The books are based on the game modules. And yes, they breathe fire - the red ones only, of course.
