Going off of the "Manticore" Suggestion During our last Meeting, I figured that we could probably make it another Mostly Australian Species, acting mostly as a big bully omnivore that would only use its size to take prey away from things like Quadrakes, or scare off Bucklizards for easy foraging.

I see these as cat-sized insectivores in the early Jurassic, getting slightly bigger by the Cretaceous. I'll leave Australia alone geosuchid wise since those suckers would annoy anything.

By the Holocene I picture these about as big as a sheep but more nasty.

Aetosaur Advancement: Ropalosuchus (Mace Crocodile)

Its an Aetosaur with something more badass than a Thagomizer and an ankylosaurus tail club put together

Awesome!

Also I read about your rauchi idea. I'd think prestosuchids would downsize into our raccoon, weasel, and other small predator niches while the other rauchies end up like pseudo theropods like you said before.

Even though Pseudo theropods already exist in a pseudo dilophosaur-like group and a compy group I'm planning. They'll mostly stay in the same niche so the rauchies can end up like retrosaur carnosaurs like you said.

Its That Time Again!

1. A (horrible) attempt at a Skeletal involving a New and improved Aquatic Pterosaur design.
2. Stegovathos, another Aetosaur idea which involves Triangle shaped armor Half Rings protecting it.
3. Long Necked Aetosaur Holotype Sketch, With a Burrowing Aetosaur next to it.
4. a Manticore stealing a kill from a Quadrake.
5. a Dicynodont or something with some bumps on its face.
6. A "Aletrosuchus" redesign, Made with a Running motion in mind
7. Different foot ideas for Antlered Silesaurs
8. More Dicynodonts or Something.

On Universe Travel and the Inevitable YellowStone Extinction Event

now, you might be wondering what the Hell am I going on about now, well its more of just Ideas i tossed around on the Skype Chat, im tossing it in here so it doesn't get lost as easily.

Traveling from Earth Prime to Earth Nova.
One thing that has been pretty much confirmed is that Earth Nova is being recorded by Humans from Earth Prime. The Basics is something along the lines of something i assume as a Stargate, But the Real question is, "Would it be possible to go anywhere within Earth Nova's Timeline?", and the answer is maybe, IF we can explain it VERY well. I mean sure, we COULD just wave it off like the Moon getting hit by the Asteroid instead of the Yucatan, But That's no fun. What is Fun is trying to figure out Theoretical Physics of Portals. What I figure is that The Universal Travel between Earth Prime and its Sister Earth Nova would end up being Horizontal, Which i feel would only be Easy to understand if i use Pictures, So i have illustrated here the Timeline in its basics of from the Permian Extinction to now

Posted Image

With Horizontal Movement between universes, (it will look Vertical because of how the Tree is Illustrated.)

Posted Image

Here i have Illustrated Movement within the Multiverse, Horizontal Movement within the Multiverse seems very possible, But once you get into Diagonal, then you are committing Time Travel, which is Pretty much Impossible. What Does this Mean? well, Considering if we could only rely on H-Movement, Explorers of Earth Nova would have to rely on Fossil Evidence and Holocene Fauna to understand this World of non Dinosaurian Archosaurs.

The Proposition of the YellowStone Extinction Event

I bet this Title is scaring you, It should, considering its very much possible in our timeline, and would almost definitely be a present threat in Earth Nova, so that brought me to a very horrifying thought. What if YellowStone's Super Volcano went off within the last of EP's Ice ages. That or maybe the 2.1 mya Eruption is made to be more violent.

New Year New Ideas, Long Live Mesozoic Nova!

I did read this thing and the Yellowstone idea might be a bit overplayed in my mind, But what if we threw an Asteroid at it?

Can we by any chance form a list of what ideas we have already made? So we can keep track and maybe go back to them later.

You mean parasites that do have spines?

I can picture vampire pterosaurs, reptiles that live in hives and mounds that insects made, and cuckoo nest robbing.

Well obviously we could do better vampire pterosaurs than that paleontologist wannabe.

Poisonous saliva could infect the flesh as the creature feeds....

Best you're gonna get is a component that stops clotting.


Though a group of Swifts that swarm with Venom could be an idea.

OK, venomous pterosaurs and anti-blood clotting vampire pterosaurs....

So what could make the parasitic creatures deadly? Instead of poisonous saliva perhaps they too make venom?
