Actualy, I just made DDs the size of a slippy pony, and they are doing fine. After all, they where at least the size of Rarity in the episode they where in. They dont stand a chance in there currant form in world gen. As in, they are worse than "bolds when attempting to survive the smallest of other civs.
Oh, and a Zebra of mine just went
cupcakes on a fellow two-horn, and is constructing something out of her. Hopefully it will be useful, because that was my best woodcutter.
That, and she has a little filly who was born a season ago. Poor thing is going to die, considering its outside and I have been getting seiges every few seasons. And there from buffalo, so shes doomed. That, and I dont plan of emptying the moat.
You bring up a good point about the diomedian ponies though. I hadn't even really noticed that they are just as made up as the multi castes for other civilizations, since I think of them as just ponies when they attack. They're almost necessary as a goblin replacement, but I wonder how else this might be handled. Based on what I understand war with civilizations that don't have atrocious ethics like the goblins is uncommon, so there probably wouldn't be enough conflict without them.
Indeed. I actualy had to fiddle around with the zebra ethics to make sure that they will war with somepony, because they almost always end up smothering other civs due to never warring.
Ever.In the end of one world, there where pockets of buffalo and rainbows, but zebras ruled the world. There where ponies on a rather small chunk of land isolated from the rest by a river, and I could not find Cave or Dromidiens anywhere.
Really? Not the Cave ponies or the Diomedian ponies? I would think that they are much further deviations from the show than the fact that manticores are sentient instead of animal.
I always just thought of the Cave ponies as underground mutents, with all the freaky stuff you can find underground. I blame the proximity of the clownhouse.
And honastly, I actualy thought the Diomedians should have been called the " Childeren of Nightmare" or something forbiding, because they are the general evil race. After all, if we are slaves to Celestia, than who are the spawn of Luna...
And besides, there are plently of creatures that are inteligent but cannot talk. Look at dragons: out of the two adults, we have gotten one line out of them, while spike has no issues with talking with ponies. Its probable that all eqines share a language, all cat-like creatures have one, ex.
