Of course this will delay completion of the shipset, but it’s also a chance to re-make the models correcting some things I would have been to lazy otherwise.

Deathstalker, it would be great if you can start thinking about a variation of Cephalopeian AI for the dragons. I think they should also have organic and psychic racial traits.

Dragonlord, I hope it’s ok with you I name all files for example “dragon_portrait_somesize”.

And to anyone who can contribute with the speech and design name files. Send me an email kuat@tutopia.com
I’d like to use researched dragon names like Baron Munchausen suggested, but since I don’t think we can find enough names to make it a usable file, we’ll probably need to enlarge it with some ‘dramatic and evocative’ names.



I think you'd be surprised how many dragon names you could find with some effort. Probably could get close to 100. Maybe fill it out with other monster names.

Oh, btw, have you used any other materials in making these dragons? In other words, are they entirely your creation? If you have complete rights, would you consider letting MM use one or more of your images when they want to include Space Monsters as a hard coded feature in the game? Just a thought. I'm not aware that they are ready to work on those just yet. But having a variety of images to use when they finally get to them would be cool.

Hey, I found a site that lists dragon names from Anne McCafferey's "Dragon Rider" books. Many would not consider these "true" dragons but the list is more than 200 names! Here it is in case you want to use it. Searching for dragons of "myth and literature" as opposed to current science fiction I've only found 30-some names so far. Lots of dragons in old folk-tale were just "the dragon of X" where X is the location where it lived. <shrug>...
