Hi Thomas, "the' Ladon? I've always just heard of the dragon as "Ladon".

Hi Bryan, Yeah, in "Battle of Olympus" the Ladon was basically just a stronger version of the Hydra, and of course it could fly. Although, the Hydra was fairly easy to beat, because it only took 8 hits from the staff to kill which was sort of lame. The Ladon took something like 20 which was more like it. The Minotaur took 32 which doesn't make a lot of sense since i would have thought the Ladon was a tougher enemy to kill. Anyway, as for creating poison arrows I don't know. That adds complexity both to programming and to the game. I'm hoping to think of something easier and more simple for that situation.
