Hi all (again Cheesy)

First of all, I am not sure if this is the right section to post this. If not, mods please move it to right one.

This days I've been thinking about something that maybe does the game cooler. Why not to name advanced aliens different than basic ones? This is what I thought:

Adv. Basilisk => Hydra
Adv. Marauder => Prowler
Adv. Dragoon => Slaver
Adv. Granger => idk, think something.

or something like so.
I know it would have effect on balance, but could be a cool wink to old trem players that are tired of writing the same words over and over, as well as new players would think that there are more aliens than the dretch, lisk, mara, goon and rant. An hypothetical adv. tyrant could be named Khan or something even more powerful than a real tyrant.

Hope it helps!

goon+ does not take slaves. "dragoon" is actually a term for light or medium cavalry.  cataphract, Cuirassier, or lancer fit.

mara+ is not stealthy.  "raider" would be a better suggestion, i think.

basi+ only has one head.   umm, cockatrice perhaps?

not that i support the idea.  [alien name]+ works for me.

Wouldn't that be the act of combining said primitive Asian steppes leader with anything?

OMG! I said that because there is an idiom (maybe deprecated) in the dictionary, which means "to obligate, to force someone doing something". I dragoon u into accepting this.

Basilisk was a greek reptile, a bit less terrifying than the Hydra, so... not because  Basilisk+ has two (or more) heads

come to think of it, gorgon works as well, better than cockatrice, at least.  you see, the key feature is that the gaze of a basilisk was that its gaze turns you to stone.

i also knew about the idiom about dragoon = force to do.  but i am a cavalryman, and i will take the cavalry meaning first every time.  and as goons are the top alien till stage 3, calling for goons is like "calling in the cavalry".

Pazuzu.... are you calling for a Komodo Drago(o)n as a name?

PD: I know it is somewhat stupid, but just fun. However, take a look at http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?topic=16513.0. Just ridi....c...ontinue by yourself.
