From Dragons to Drakes

Can anyone make a mod for HoF to turn every Fire Dragon and Magma Dragon names (adventure map creatures, dwelling names etc) to Fire Drakes and Magma Drakes? PLz?

I would be very grateful for that, because Dragons without wings are IMO Drakes

That makes sense, I second your request.

Actually Dragons without wings are not Drakes but Wyrms.

Wyrms are fire-breathing snakes or worms...

Germanic folklore uses the "Wyrm" terminology, others, not.

Yeah I always pictured Drakes as small dragons, and wyrms as walkers. But since I don't care if they call em drakes, dragons, wyrms, or 'hey you over there' it is a moot point. Still a tier 7 'dragon-like' creature hehe. Hope next town has something different

heck, I'm even thinking about changing the color from red to dark green and giving them a wholly different sound effect...

can you figure out what I would call them?

King Kongs? (sorry just had to do that hehe). Hmm giant apes to counter giant lizards...now where have I heard that before.. anyhow Drake or Wyrm does fit more then dragon. Though Chinese Dragons don't all have wings...

hmm, what about a monster-island version of Homm?

wouldn't that be a kick?

Mothra for the Elves, Ghidora for dungeon, Godzilla for the Dwarves...

But they can fly by using magic.

Great ideas, turn the magma and fire drakes green and call em dracozillas or sm'thing

Some feedback about the drake mod, I miss 'Drake' when it comes to the dwellings on the build screen etc, its still 'Dragon'

you mean neutral dwellings, or when you build the in-town dwelling?

In-town dwellings, before I have built the 7th lvl one. Im not sure if the external dwellings miss drake too, check it out if you bother

Im sitting at a weak laptop at this moment and my PC is at home so Im inable to check it out myself

when you find out all the places it is missing (I hadn't noticed myself), then put a list together and I'll see if I can fix it.

sure I can, it may take some time only

Report 1: I have noticed two things, its not Fire Drake or Magma Drake in the creatures descriptions, neither are those names on the in-town dwellings.

Report 2: These creatures are named Fire and Magma Drakes as stacks on the adventure map, so no worry there
