Does "Iron Dragon" = "Drake" or " Wyvern" ???!?!?

[rsolow]

I am looking to take advantage of the Dragon Master Spell. These spells should work with it:

Summon Fire Drake
Summon Cave Drake
Summon Ice Drake
Summon Wyvern

1) But, what about the spell "Iron Dragon" (page 175) -- will that work with Dragon Master ???

2) Are there any spells other than those I listed that work with Dragon Master

[Shovah32]

Im not sure if there are any others but im almost certain dragon master wouldnt work with iron dragon or tarrasque.

Seems very strange that is does not work with Tarrasque.

Yes, it should work for dragon pretenders, too. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

1) I haven't tested it, but I don't think so. Iron Dragon is a construct, after all.

2) Not to my knowledge. I'm fairly certain it doesn't affect Tarrasques.

[Folket]

It seems Thematical that it would work with Tarraques. They are dragons after all. Iron Dragon is just a mimic.

[Shovah32]

But i thought the spell specifically says drake or wyvern?

[Uh-Nu-Buh]

There is only one Tarrasque, I believe--so it shouldn't work with Awaken Tarrasque. Just summon spells, just dragons.

Yes summon Wyvern.
No construct Iron Dragon.
No awaken Tarrasque.
No construct Apocalyptic Bone Dragon.

Eh - believe that's AD&D thinking there. Pretty sure I've had multiple tarrasques in one MP game some time ago, had some fun empowering them in multiple magic paths so they could do fire shield, cloud trapeze, etc. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Dom II, I'm pretty sure a new Tarrasque took the place of old Tarrasque. I actually tried it on purpose once, but it has been 2 years so maybe I am misremembering. I haven't tried this in Dom III yet.

I'll give it a try if one of my current games allows.

Actually that wasn't the case... I recall having done gift of reason on multiple Tarrasque and having them fight side by side in battle.
If only one can be summoned in Dom_3 then this is a new change. Hopefully the dragon beast was improved if only one can exist.

Tarrasques are identical to dom2, except the path requirement, as far as I can tell. Definately not a unique summon.

[Uh-Nu-Buh]

When I can test it, I will post the result.

[calmon]

I've tested it, it only works for wyverns and drakes (like the description said).

Only 1 Tarrasque and only 1 iron drake per cast.

[Shovah32]

Well in dom2 atleast ive had 10+ tarrasques in a single battle so they definitely were not unique then, i doubt if its been changed since then but its possible.

Those were tarrasques??? I thought those were someone's ex-girl(/boy/beast)friends! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Sadly, it doesn't appear to work with Sirrushes, either.
