Does "Iron Dragon" = "Drake" or " Wyvern" ???!?!?

1) I haven't tested it, but I don't think so. Iron Dragon is a construct, after all.

2) Not to my knowledge. I'm fairly certain it doesn't affect Tarrasques.

It seems Thematical that it would work with Tarraques. They are dragons after all. Iron Dragon is just a mimic.

But i thought the spell specifically says drake or wyvern?

There is only one Tarrasque, I believe--so it shouldn't work with Awaken Tarrasque. Just summon spells, just dragons.

Yes summon Wyvern.
No construct Iron Dragon.
No awaken Tarrasque.
No construct Apocalyptic Bone Dragon.

Eh - believe that's AD&D thinking there. Pretty sure I've had multiple tarrasques in one MP game some time ago, had some fun empowering them in multiple magic paths so they could do fire shield, cloud trapeze, etc.

Dom II, I'm pretty sure a new Tarrasque took the place of old Tarrasque. I actually tried it on purpose once, but it has been 2 years so maybe I am misremembering. I haven't tried this in Dom III yet.

I'll give it a try if one of my current games allows.

Actually that wasn't the case... I recall having done gift of reason on multiple Tarrasque and having them fight side by side in battle.
If only one can be summoned in Dom_3 then this is a new change. Hopefully the dragon beast was improved if only one can exist.
