Shall we give them a helping hand with the name?

[L o k i]

I can't think of any right now, but I think just "Dinosaurs" is a little too simple for what the game will actualy be.

[RenderDrone]

I think we should let them do their job.

Sid Meier's Age of Reptiles. SMART.

Or how about Sid Meier's Egg Game? SMEG.

[L o k i]

lol, nice one.

I like the first one though, it sounds right.

[Bblue]

SMART sounds good ... but one little problem... Dinos were not reptiles, they were Dinosauria


opps.. my bad, got thinking about this and looked it up, I thought dinos had made it up to thier own class, but they appear to still be two orders under the class Reptilia, GgGgRrRrr teach me to type before I think.

So where did Dinosauria come from? is that an old group name? Taxonomy is starting to hurt my head

They almost did according to any recent decent book. They are two of the five orders of Archosauria (I might misspell a couple of terms because I was interested in this many years ago).:-)

Sid Meier Goes The Way Of The Dinosaur

[Bblue]

Thanks for the sub-class name St. Leo.
went and looked up the five orders under sub-class Archosauria and was somewhat surprised the the 'flyers' are order Pterosauria and apparently are not considered dinosaurs in the technical sense. Learn something new everyday.

Actually I have had a hard time finding a good exact definintion of what exactly is a dinosaur, best I could come up with was basically animals of the orders, Saurischia and Ornithischia, anyone find a better one?
