He’s hiding in Event chests that haven’t happened yet. 😃

I hope his flavor text has something to do with crouching tigers…

How can that work if every town in every city is using the language differently? There needs to be central rules that every twat can then deviate from

She just mentioned that she’s got a preference for descriptive grammar versus prescriptive grammar. In descriptivist terms, no, there do not need to be central rules for speakers, and in fact they serve no pragmatic purpose aside from linguist-informative ones.

You should all read Bill Bryson’s The Mother Tongue. Hilarious discourse on the origins and the differences of English as it’s spoken around the world. Coincidentally, I am reading it right now.  
And don’t shoot the messenger, I’m Dutch and having nothing whatsoever to do with English.  
No grammar was hurt in the writing of this message, or so I hope.

OK I know I’m not the only one who thinks this - I asked - but how crazy strong is Dragotaur?

Lets see. Cheap, destroy column is nice for more mana, large-bordering-on-massive attack AND armor buff, decent 2x boost ratio on yellows destroyed. Armored is a decent trait. 25% to spawn a different dragon on death that shares a color with it and helps hold the slot, nice.

Oh wait. That gigantic attack and armor buff is for _every dragon on your team_. GG much.

Jesus you have NOTHING good to say and I’m very much over it.

As it happens, I am _using_ the troop in question. And we can add stellar base attack and the fact its only a rare to what I already said.

My biggest gripe currently is that they crammed it in between Forest of Thorns and Khetar when there’s all kinds of open real estate elsewhere on the world map. I count at least 5 wide open areas!

(Also, it just occurred to me that there could be an underwater Kingdom placed in one of the bodies of water!)

Yeah we’ve been asking for a pirate kingdom or something of the sort. I’d very much be a fan of water kingdoms.

Alas, it’s only where there is literal ‘fog of war’ on the map. Which is how some of us knew this one could be where it is.

Then again, they can bend their rules eventually. Who knows.

@Lyya: But is it next to Wild Plains/Leonis Empire, or South of Darkstone, or is it parked in the middle of the sea? Or can you even tell with your digging around? My assumption is that the pirate kingdom is on the Southern land mass or the Western penisula where there’s fog of war.
