I need one more unit idea, it will be sort of swordmanish.

swordsman?  Perhaps velociraptor (as in jurassic park)?

Conceptually, I can't see a problem with a faction that only harvests wood.  It would be most appropriate for them to deforest a whole map quickly, and then go extinct!

Definately a raptor. They're fast and small(ish), not to mention they're probably the second best known dinosaur, behind rexxy.

Well what ever, I am not having humans in this faction, dinos only.

But it will have an opposing human faction, I was thinking barbarians?

Perhaps. Let's see how this faction is first, in terms of strength and balance.  :)

Include the less known dinosaurs in a oposing dinosaur faction. You seem to lack a ton of Theropods anyways :)

That would be the Dilophosaurus. However, there's no real proof it did spit like that, though, I see no reason for "historical accuracy" on a field that so little is known.

Also, I check the forums at least once a day, usually a few times, though, we do have timezone differences. Germany is a long way from Canada. Plus, I just don't reply to everything. "lol" is not a worthy reply. I also don't reply to say "sorry, didn't try it, unlikely to" nor do I reply in "stupid" topics (not to name any).

Hmm...you won't reply to people who include chatspeak such as "lol", but you would reply to people who use smilies instead?  :angel:
Stupid topics...only the OT section had/have pointless topics, at least for me.
Where'd you get "Germany" from? Elim is from Canada, and I think jim is from Kenya...

The field is well known, there are tons and tons of fossils that have been dug up, and probably tons and tons of more. Dilophosaurus did carry venom, though if it spit it or not remains a mystery, it's jaws are not strong enough to hold prey for long enough to kill it.

Good Idea! Ill do this for now.

I have a dino that spits fire, like the drake rider.

But I need to think of more ways to go for air. Or else air will be a big weakens in this faction.

Air is an easy field, there's lots of flying dinosaurs that were mentioned before.

spinosaurus, huge variety of raptor, T-rex, giganotosaurus all look different and for naval you could have lieupleorodo, kronosaurus, plesiosaurus etc, in the air pteranodon, quetzalcoatlus and ramporynchus are the better known more popular types.

Why not have the brontosaurus melee air units? Its neck should be long enough to swing at them!
