Tame Dragons
« on: May 11, 2008, 05:02:00 pm »

I just had a dragon wander into a trap of mine, and found out you can tame it.  Unfortunately, it then doesn't show up on my animal list so I can't set it up as adoptable or anything (not that anyone could afford one)

Bug, or am I missing something?

hehe, the taming actually took.  he's wandering around free right now, I hope someone adopts him ><

PS:  Is it just me, or are cage traps MASSIVELY overpowered?  I have 3 colossi and a dragon now...  In wooden cages.

Yes.  They are a tad strong.  You'd think a titan, colossus, or dragon would be able to break, shatter, or burn the wood.  Nope!

The wood is imbued with the elves' blood! It's just a simple magic.

This is why elves don't want you to chop down trees: The dwarves might come across the superpowers of wood like invisible buildings and the ability to make weapons/armor out of them.

Now rig up a way to release the dragon at a choke-point bend at your entrance to crispify invaders!

Wait... fire.

Then just a hungry dragon pit.
