Been a couple of years since I last posted anything about my Coliseum teams - back pre-Hibernal when I was having fun raising up fandragon teams, such as Striders of Rohan (Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli of course), and Team Red (Spiderman, Deadpool, and Daredevil). Post-Hibernal almost all the fun dragons went off to snooze away their days, with the lone exception of my old Dragon Age fandragons, since there was just 4 of them remaining, 3 of whom (Fenris, SebastianVael, and Isabela)  were a Coliseum team. And for the last couple of years, that team were my main dragons for Coliseum, with my progens available as Mire Flyers when I was doing any exalting.

A few months back I decided it was past time to level up a new Coliseum team from among my breeding pairs, to allow the Dragon Age collection to wander off and join the other fandragons in Hibernal.  Seeing as I’m in Nature these days, and have loved tree dragons since the first time I saw one, I selected three of my oldest (and favourite) tree dragons; Cypress and her mate Aspen, plus Beauty. They became the Killer Trees team, and took over main Coliseum-grinding duty.

And then I decided to level some more teams; it was a way to make grinding for Coliseum-dropped genes and apparel slightly more entertaining, mostly, plus I still had stupid numbers of good battle stones hoarded away. So this led to:

Elders Outing - three of my lowest-ID dragons, two of whom were lying around waiting for a new breed to emerge, and have now been re-gened to Veilspun, which amuses me every time I load the trio and see all of them being ancient breeds now.

Oronte, Tindome, and Tsamma - a trio of butterfly dragons, Tindome and Tsamma have clutches in turn and between the three of them they cover most of the colour wheel in their secondary colours.

Moon and Suns - aka Moonshadow, Sundew, and Sundapple, another trio setup though in their case it’s the primary range that covers most of the wheel.

Hellacious - aka Hades, Persephone, and Kore, my most recent trio, who have a super-wide secondary between the three of them.

...and I’m now out of eliminates, hastes, and rallies, though still going strong on eveything else. I have a feeling that from now forward, any time I put together a trio of dragons, I’m just going to automatically start levelling them up as a new Coliseum team. Because I while I don’t need that many teams, especially when I keep giving them essentially the same stats, it’s something to do when I’m grinding stupid amounts of Coliseum anyway.

No longer leaning against the tree waiting to fall and kill someone.

Father-in-Law to the rescue. He’s coming back tomorrow with his bigger chainsaw. He said “It didn’t look this big in the pictures “

Anyone want to count the rings? It’s just a limb, so might not be accurate. I dunno. I’m having a hard time seeing any rings in the lighter wood.

I really do need to buy a chainsaw.

Came in today to find a limb of our Black Cherry sheared off of the trunk, now balanced precariously against the tree from which it escaped.

It’s big. That limb used to be about 15’ up, it’s now leaned against the trunk at about 10’.

After today, we need a sequel, sequel.

Trailer Tuesday: The Woods (2016)

Trailer Tuesday: The Woods (2016)

Off the bat, I don’t think this movie will be super original. I’m not expecting unique corrects or a unique plot. However, The Woods looks pretty gorgeous, and the trailer they’ve released is basically perfection. And, finally, we get a correct rendition of “Every Breath You Take” that fully encapsulates how creepy the song is. You all know I’m a sucker for terrible things that happen in…

I just got killed by a tree. The environment is striking back against us.
