To be a star dragon, you need to have outlived the Rise of Chaos.

Emperors are a step above that.

Even if it is not all, they are still so old that the difference for us is almost meaningless.
Do we have quotes for those tidbits about star and emperor dragons? From what I have seen other people say emperor and star are simply different methods for stating age of a dragon. I haven't seen anything linking the two like you are suggesting.
 
Aren't star dragons basically Emperor dragons but in elf?
No, they are are the step below that. The high elves don't have the option to include emperor dragons in their army natively. They have to do it the same way as everyone else.

Fair do's then. I was focusing on the non-ulthuani dragons unit entries and didn't bother reading the high elf army books for this.
 
How about Axe Bite Pass, for whenever the horselovers decide to attack the Empire for some imagined faults?

The exact same problem applies.

'Star Dragon' means the eldest of the Ulthuan-aligned Dragons. 'Emperor Dragon' means the eldest of Dragons, regardless of political affiliation.

I like how we captured most of the Karak in the space of a day once Belegar left. We have the complete rhyn of the place. :V
 
I'd actually rather be quickly murdered by warpstone radiation than torn apart and eaten. At least you'd be dead before the warpguts actually ate you
You are assuming that the warp radiation does not turn you into something that can not die of old age, is in constant agony andddd then becomes intangible to trolls because 'warp'

Basically, the assumption that you would die to the radiation seems to be insufficiently pessimistic one to bank on.

River troll for me, every time.

Well, no time, but between that and warp gut....
 
River troll, you know what's going to happen to you. Warpgut troll, it's a gamble with fates worse than death being very much on the table.
 
I do not feel reassured that Mr Machinegun went on a murder spree because he was woken up by the other squatter's meth lab blowing up, no.
I think we should stop saying "squatter" about the dragon, unless it turns out it sneakily moved in just last year or something. Dwarfs lost Karak Eight Peaks three thousand years ago. That's long enough to become indigenous in most places IRL. Dwarfs are so inhumanly bitter and grudge-holding they're pushing the equivalent of Babylonian revanchism and being upset about the destruction of the Hanging Gardens by the Assyrians. (attributed to Sennacherib ca. 700BC)

On the other hand, AFAIK, neither the dragon nor the dwarfs have signed onto any sort of international treaty regarding such things, so this doesn't give the dragon any rights as such, the dwarfs will probably be onboard with killing a "settler" or "indigenous" dragon instead if they can't come to an agreement about letting it stay in their Karak.

First rule of another race is that they don't think like humans, between near perfect memories, and living for multiple centuries. 3000 years, might as well be 300 for a human. It's a rare dragon that isn't with the High Elves that can be reasoned with, if it can be reasoned with, doesn't have Dawi treasure as part of it's hoard, and is willing to pay or work as 'rent' then great. If not it dies just that simple.

If you have an issue take it to the appropriate thread.

Just replying to something directly posted to me.

No negotiation, no perhaps trying not to piss off the flying intelligent WMD, just going to go straight to killing it if these criteria ain't fulfilled?

I suppose we shouldn't use the Zhuffbar model for dealing with Dragons then?
