They fit in S&S, specially if on the power-scale of AD&D MM, so why not?

They fit in S&S, specially if on the power-scale of AD&D MM, so why not? "Dragons" in S&S are dinosaurs (for example, in one of my two favorite Conan stories, "Red Nails"). Everybody knows that dinosaurs are way cooler than dragons. (Good to see you posting, Zulgyan. )

Let me just say first that I agree with you: there's no particular reason you couldn't have D&D-style dragons in a sword & sorcery world, if you wanted. It's my understanding (and Jeff can correct me if I'm wrong) that D&D-style dragons don't really fit into the author's vision for Hyperborea. There are various draconian creatures (wyverns, behirs, fire-breathing komodo dragons, hydras, etc.) but no dragons per se. Since this is one of the things that makes the setting distinctive, I wouldn't expect it to change with the next printing. Fortunately, if you want dragons in AS&SH, you can use the ones from any classic version of D&D pretty much without changes. Or why not create your own versions and share them here?

Hello and thanks for the suggestion, Z, but I'm afraid I won't be adding in dragons.
