Hi, Yes, in deed he was. Although, I don't call 100 heads triditional. Any dragon with that many heads would be one tough stone of a peach to beat.

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
Maybe if you could poison your arrows with the Hydra's blood the way Heracles did. That was how he killed Ladon. Admittedly I don't know if Hydra poison would be strong enough to take out a dragon and even if it was you might have to fill it so full of arrows it'd probably look like a porcupine. But that was how Heracles is said to have killed Ladon when he went to fetch the Golden Apples. Of course in Battle of Olympus I'm sure Ladon was just a stronger version of the Hydra, one which flew rather than swimming in water.

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
Hi Bryan, Yeah, in Battle of Olympus the Ladon was basically just a stronger version of the Hydra, and of course it could fly. Although, the Hydra was fairly easy to beat, because it only took 8 hits from the staff to kill which was sort of lame. The Ladon took something like 20 which was more like it. The Minotaur took 32 which doesn't make a lot of sense since i would have thought the Ladon was a tougher enemy to kill. Anyway, as for creating poison arrows I don't know. That adds complexity both to programming and to the game. I'm hoping to think of something easier and more simple for that situation.

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
Hi Bryan, Actually a crossbow or spear gun are the hand held weapon of choice under water. They go much better under water than bullets do. BFN - Original Message - Good one. LOL. My guess would be a corssbow or something along those lines since in my experience the dragon's weak point is often too small for a sword blade to effectively reach, whereas a crossbow bolt might be able to do the trick. My first thought was a club since that was Heracles' weapon of choice if memory serves, but I rather quickly discarded that idea since dragons weren't usually vulnerable in the head. THey were usually most vulnerable in the chest or throat area if I remember right. Granted a Hydra if memory serves is rather distantly related to dragons but still. We are the Knights who say...Ni!

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
Hi Bryan, A real dragon? Ok, the only real dragon that I know of is actually just a giant lizard, the Kammoto dragon. Which of course does not breathe fire and is not magical. Don't even believe that it has scales. Sorry, just saying... BFN - Original Message - That would agree with the Harry Potter books as well since Sirius tells Harry that dragons are most vulnerable in the eyes. That would seem to hint at a javelin or spear or maybe even a dirk, something that would let you attack from further away. Granted if it was a dirk you'd probably need to have several on hand since if the first blow wasn't fatal you'd need to land several more. And now I'm suddenly reminded of the Dragonlance novels since the Dragonlance was probably one of the only weapons, and I don't remember many others, with any hope of penetrating a dragon's scales. Granted if you were fighting a real dragon keeping your distance wouldn't be a complete protection since they can breathe fire and at quite a distance if my memory serves. You could avoid that if you were quick enough though I suppose. We are the Knights who say...Ni!

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
My vote is for, Greek Fire the secret weapon of the Eastern Roman Emperors. It is said to have been invented by a Syrian Engineer, one Callinicus, a refugee from Maalbek, in the seventh century (673 AD). The liquid fire was hurled on to the ships of their enemies from siphons and burst into flames on contact. As it was reputed to be inextinguishable and burned even on water, it caused panic and dread. Both Arab and Greek sources agree that it surpassed all incendiary weapons in destruction. The secret behind the Greek fire was handed down from one emperor to the next for centuries. Rumors about its composition include such chemicals as liquid petroleum, naphtha, burning pitch, sulphur, resin, quicklimeand bitumen, along with some other secret ingredient. The exact composition, however, remains unknown. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
Hi Hayden, Well, the Ladon and the Hydra were both Greek versions of dragons so we can assume they are at least dragonlike. The Hydra had a number of abilities like the ability to breath fire, another head could freeze you to death, and it also could breath out poison to poison you to death. Kind of like a dragon with some very nasty extra bilities. So we can assume it probably had scales although nothing is really said one way or another in the 12 trials of Hercules. The Ladon on the other hand is more of a triditional dragon. We see it featured in Jason and the Argonaughts, and from the movie's point-of-view it is more of a triditional dragon. Although, the actual Greek legend describes it simply as a giant serpant that breaths fire. So with a lot of these things the actual nature of the creature is open to some interpretation. For example, in the classic NES game, Battle of Olympus, one of your tasks is to defeat a Hydra. The way you actually kill/defeat it is totally different from Hercules method. You get a magic staff that shoots fire, and you use the staf to hit and burn the creature to death. Kind of strange, but no other weapon in the game has much effect on it. However, In Battle of Olympus the Nemean Lion is more true to the actual one Hercules faught. You can't kill it with swords, nives, fire, or anything else. You basically just have to beat it to death with the club.Although, Hercules actually knocked it out with the club and strangled it to death, but that is a small and miner deviation from the story. Here is another example. In Titan Quest one of the major boss battles involves a conflict between you and the tthree gorgon sisters, Euryale, Medusa, and Stheno. Now, strictly speaking the only reason Medusa could be slane is she got crosswise with Athena, and Athena turned Medusa into a mortal. Her other sisters, Euryale and Stheno, were immortals and could not be slane by any mortal blade. Titan Quest seams to overlook that fact and you can pretty much take out all three with standard weaponry. No special weapons etc needed. Vidio games and movies do this kind of thing all the time to balance out difficulty. If you had to actually battle two immortals with standard weaponry then obviously it would end up in a slotter with you on the losing side. hdpres...@hotmail.com wrote: Hi Muhammed, No real point in doing that.

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
Good one. LOL. My guess would be a corssbow or something along those lines since in my experience the dragon's weak point is often too small for a sword blade to effectively reach, whereas a crossbow bolt might be able to do the trick. My first thought was a club since that was Heracles' weapon of choice if memory serves, but I rather quickly discarded that idea since dragons weren't usually vulnerable in the head. THey were usually most vulnerable in the chest or throat area if I remember right. Granted a Hydra if memory serves is rather distantly related to dragons but still.

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
I always thought greeks loved the javolin... and I always figured that was their signature weapon. At least, with spartans it was. That and the spear. And as to a dragon's weakpoint... isn't the eye also a possibility? I guess you'd have to look from different perspectives about that... being chinese, I know the myths and legends chinese people have about dragons... and they always talk about the eyes... that seems to be the point where a lot of chinese heroes defeated dragons was by stabbing them in the eye or whatnot.

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
That would agree with the Harry Potter books as well since Sirius tells Harry that dragons are most vulnerable in the eyes. That would seem to hint at a javelin or spear or maybe even a dirk, something that would let you attack from further away. Granted if it was a dirk you'd probably need to have several on hand since if the first blow wasn't fatal you'd need to land several more. And now I'm suddenly reminded of the Dragonlance novels since the Dragonlance was probably one of the only weapons, and I don't remember many others, with any hope of penetrating a dragon's scales. Granted if you were fighting a real dragon keeping your distance wouldn't be a complete protection since they can breathe fire and at quite a distance if my memory serves. You could avoid that if you were quick enough though I suppose.

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
Probably not. I don't think bullets would be able to punch through a dragon's scales and probably not even the softer hide underneath. Dragons are probably too powerfully magical for that. If we're talking fighting from a distance I'd put my money on either an enchanted bow, a crossbow a javelin/lance or posibly even shurakin, something small that could be obtained in plenty and thrown with a high degree of speed. Granted Shurakin are probably so small that they probably wouldn't be able to do much more than irritate a dragon, sort of like a human being bitten by a fly or a mosquito. Not particularly harmful unless of course you happened to have an allergy. I imagine throwing a Shurakin into a dragon's eye would be no more deadly to it than a bug bite generally would be to us.

Hi Charles, Very good. You are correct being underwater like that would cause to much resistance to throw or shoot anything. The laws of physics are just against you.

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
Hi, You are getting warmer. Although, you are wrong about the eyes. Yes, it is true you could harm a dragon by blinding it, but Hydras don't work that way. They have multiple heads and multiple eyes. Anything you cut off or cut will heal quickly. So going for its eyes would likely just get it angry at you, and it will have you for breakfast. Grin.

That and the spear. And as to a dragon's weakpoint... isn't the eye also a possibility? I guess you'd have to look from different perspectives about that... being chinese, I know the myths and legends chinese people have about dragons... and they always talk about the eyes... that seems to be the point where a lot of chinese heroes defeated dragons was by stabbing them in the eye or whatnot. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
