Re: American Alligator for Rougarou Bayou
I know this is an older thread, but I absolutely want to see gators in Rougarou, and I didn't want to start a new thread to show some mockups:
Even if the devs have said "they can't find a way to make them fun," they're alligators. The sheer visual size of them alone could make for good trophy hunting. Rougarou right now has nothing for people who don't hunt waterfowl, so why not add something big? Something you need precise shots on, that can vanish underwater, that's high risk/high reward. Imagine stumbling through the bayou, and a white outline three times larger than you flashes in the murk ahead...

Re: American Alligator for Rougarou Bayou
Though this one looks twice longer than in real life, some crocodiles can indeed grow that large: https://dinoanimals.com/animals/largest ... rs-top-10/skraldrog wrote:Nice mock-up but may i doubt the size?
With that, it would be good improvement to have 2-3 species of them - like, well, alligators in Rougarou Bayou, saltwater crocodiles in Piccabeen Bay, and I still hope we'll get African map one day, it could get one too... But those beasts could make harvesting waterfowl a bit dangerous. May be caimans instead, they don't typically attack people?

Re: American Alligator for Rougarou Bayou
Classic has never shied away from exaggeration! (looking at you, water buffalos)
As long as they move away from gunshots and maybe hiss when the hunter comes close, then make a growl before attacking, I don't think there'll be any dangerous waterfowl hunts with them lurking around.

Re: American Alligator for Rougarou Bayou
This is what I can imagine (Maybe not the size). The fact that your taxidermy mockup is on a mount that bears and kangaroo are means they would be viable in all 3 lodge types.
The reason I say that is mostly because I had an idea for them to be on full body mount but that would mean only 2 lodge types could hold them

Re: American Alligator for Rougarou Bayou
I've returned to the thread that I started to see how it's aged over the years and... wow. That's impressive! May I ask how you managed to do that?

Re: American Alligator for Rougarou Bayou
I'd love to see it in rougarou. Just like they did it in Mississippi acres preserve in cotw. They could even do the same way of hunting them
