Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Hmmmmm.
Shit, guys, I dunno-- I agree it would be super nice to have some more big land creatures (PS megatherium wouldn't have digging-- it was a browser, and it would probably have decent defense, since it had a layer of tiny bones under its skin that allegedly acted like chainmail).
Hnnnnnnnnnnnnng. I could see my way to building some prehistoric mammals if we could somehow make a time-travel-based campaign.

Something was a big digger way back when...Revan showed me a picture of it. kinda looked like a tapir monkey...
anyways...well maybe not time travel....but a theme of preservation, IC is mostly made up of islands and whatnot, and perhaps some Sigma experiments were saved on an island with endangered and extinct animals, as a way of Preserving them using small amounts of viable DNA and using Sigma to clone them in a way...
<.< well this is essentially the plot of Jurassic Park...but more for science than amusement.
Story with preserved specimens of ancient critters on a secret island facility.

Also continuing with what dok said, That's how kong was made. By experimenting on the islands. This would explain such creatures like the behemoth, alien, frownodon, dragon, prehistoric wolf, basilisk, gas lizard and all of the IOTKA ants.

That's not exactly what we're talking about... well sure Behemoth's story is some super-bug Ganglion made, right? but opinions and thoughts on the Behemoth have already been given, so it's not really "winning" any points there.
Mammoth hrm...small amounts of DNA super-exposed with SIgma creates a copy of the whole creature? Essentially cloning it?
Alien and Frown and those other "mutants" could be explained with some experimentation research. So engineer a new animal on its own, and send it through SIgma again with something else and Bob's your uncle....Frowning Sticks.
But these are all very fantastical elements that goes against Tellurian's MO.
I think we're going to have enough trouble trying to convince acceptance of the likes of the Mammoth and whatnot. Maybe if money was involved we'd see...but until then...I'm not holding my breath for the likes of Tellurian Dragons.

I was just trying to make a plausible scenario for those fictional creatures. On second thought, It would be interesting if someone were to make an extended ic universe.
(why aren't you on skype dok?)

I think that's all for another game to do entirely. Like you said, a game with a different universe.
Derrrrp. Still dunno what to think about prehistorics, though.

*shrug* Ultimately it is up to you. But from what everyone is saying those goofy critters filled a niche. and I don't know many (if any) still breathing specimens that could work for some of those...

IC Fanfiction?
Well...hrm...maybe. I don't see the point unless it produced more mod materal or players.
Inspirational Work you might say.

One thing that would be cool is to not have a megamod, but to have all the creatures from all the mods in tellurian. They would have to be balanced, of course.
