I think you have a misunderstanding about speed

lower number = faster

speed 0 is the fastest

[Devath]

Uh, there was no misunderstanding. Its a behemoth. It moves godawfully slow, thats the point.

[Devath]

some things may need to be changed. Self-incineration on first test run    
and second...

Try fifteen seems to have fixed the problem. I also figured out why it was happening. It's really funny. Apparently, resistance variables generate heat/fire, and if creature is capable of having leather, equal thingies must be made for the leather to prevent self-burnination. Sad.

Further testing has revealed that it can win a battle with 50+ goblin guards, a demon, and a legendary goblin pikeman. With only the loss of all eight eyes. And even then, manages to beat the crap out of everything it encounters... SO... we can prolly tone down the size a bit.

Or lower the speed even more... The speed doesn't seem to have much effect though.
Or, more accurately, the effects of the low speed are completely countered by the other stats... Which was intended, but not to this extent.

If you can't have intelligent creatures feel free to remove whatever tags you need.  If it is too powerful or too weak let me know and I'll make changes.

[Earthquake Damage]

The UFO mops the floor with the other megabeasts one-on-one.  Its size is only 25.  Size 50 is insane.  Size 125 is nigh-invulnerable.  You two may want to adjust your entries.  Invincible creatures just aren't as fun to watch as powerful-yet-mortal ones.

[Devath]

Aye... Of that I'm aware. It wasn't supposed to be invulnerable. Although I'd like to see it combat something at least once. The reason the UFO mops is DPS, if I registered right, not armor.

...Hookay, looked at the UFO's stats closely and registered that it would also mop the floor of this critter as well... I mean seriously, look at the speed diff.

The size on mine could be halved if you want, as long as you add a few points to defense as a trade off. Just make sure you make the other monsters fair too.

The flesh behemoth is too slow.

20000 is like a snail choosing to go at a millimetre per decade.

[Devath]

and?

[Jack A T]

Okay, how is this moving along?

[apache1990]

*snores*
*startled*
"Huh....oh yeah...."

I was taking a break to finish my school stuff, then I can do this actively some more.  I am doing some work adding more creatures though.

[Devath]

duude! wake up man!

I kinda wanted to post that when the thread started falling but I dislike doing reminder and bump posts.  

[apache1990]

I understand, heh heh.

Don't worry about it though, I have nothing else to do once I finish up a few papers, and a few other things (except for that one online game, but I always played it and DF at the same time anyway).

I won't disappear like Fenrir did,  .
