[Globu]

You're right on the basic saurus commanders -- by no means special. I mostly had in mind the summonable commanders in regard to that, and kind of lumped in the basic 20-gold recruitable cmdr with 'em without thinking.

But, for sure, I hadn't really taken cold-blooded into consideration.

As for the 4th Gen Slanns, I know, at least playing on the Glory map into year 5, I haven't found it worthwhile to get one except maybe once every two or three turns -- they're just too expensive to get one every turn -- so I get the oldbloods on other turns, and they do feel quite powerful (again, to the point that I feel a twinge of guilt throwing a cheap ol' fire plate on them and seeing the prot go to 24). But as for the 4th Gen Slanns, is it really practical that one will get one of those 850-gold monsters every turn?

I'll pipe up later when I've played it deeper if I have more putatively-worthwhile feedback on it.
