A T. rex is walking on a plain. He's sniffing the air in search of food. T. rex is hungry, and is looking for a prey. At a certain point, hears noises: it is a large specimen of Dacentrurus. T. rex could not wait: that was a good prey. T. rex tries to get closer, but the massive predator is too large to surprise the herbivore, and soon the Dacentrurus notice the presence of the predator. At this point, without the element of surprise, it throws him to the T. rex Dacentrurus: this, a little surprised, returns with a flick of the tail, which luckily manages to avoid T. rex. The predator has to be careful: the thagomizer of Dacentrurus are huge, and a shot of those and you're finished. T. rex then try to aim for the head, and when it finds the small head dell'erbivoro attacks. dacentrurus, however, can not see the predator in time, and hits him with his tail. T. rex is sore, the shot was powerful. But it can still hunt. Dacentrurus while she's leaving. T. rex can not give up such great prey, and chases him. T. rex, which goes to 40 km / h, is able to reach the herbivore. The predator manages to bite the foreleg of the herbivore, which sore, returns with another flick of the tail, which it hits. T. rex is hit one more time, and the thorns fare eye of a T. rex. T. Rex screaming from painful, it can still do it. Then a T. rex test last charge, but the Dacentrurus is ready to reciprocate and hits an other time T. rex. This time the shot is too hard, and the thorns pierced Dacentrurus of the bust of T. rex, which first staggers, then falls to the ground expiring.

The nest is almost ready, when those parts comes a group of four or five Diplodocus. Spinosaurus, then, is concerned that crush the nest. The mighty sauropods could do it, and this would not be nice, since Spinosaurus took months to build it. When the sauropods were almost all gone, the last in line crushes the nest. Spinosaurus, furious, then attacks the Diplodocus. Diplodocus strikes with his whip-like tail, and can damage the carnivore. But Spinosaurus is powerful and gets up early.

MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 1:03 PMWow i'm surprised who the winners were. The fights were ok but you should make it a little longer and elaborate more on what's going on.

MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 2:42 PMOkay, not what I expected. I must say, the fights are very good. I mostly understand what's going on, but do you think you could make the, longer? That way, they are even easier to read and must, much better. Great job, and I can't wait for the next ones.

MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 2:44 PMSorry, but I'm just gonna be blunt. I don't agree with the first fight in any way. Sorry, but that's how I feel.

MemberTyrannosaurus RexSep-24-2013 3:08 PMHmmmm.... Good fights, a little short, mildly disappointing. I just don't see Spinosaurus as a creature that could kill anything larger than an Ouranosaurus.

MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 3:11 PMI think it could kill at least an Aegyptosaurus.
Gigadino
MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 3:16 PM@RexFan: T.rex is too overrated. Dacentrurus can easily kill a T. rex. So, since he had won the previous contest, I threw it out right away this time.
@MrHappy: Spinosaurus is larger than Diplodocus (11 t v 14 t) and Sauropods aren't good fighters.
Rex Fan 684
MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 3:19 PM@GigaDino: And Spinosaurus isn't? A T-rex can easily kill a Dacentrurus too.

MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 3:23 PMSpinosaurs are still the best fighters of the sauropods. and I repeat, T. rex is too overrated today, now all they do win ... T. rex is not a monster, it is not the king of the dinosaurs, is just a normal Theropod giant. I wanted to do something more original.

MemberTyrannosaurus RexSep-24-2013 3:23 PMLet's not start up the Rex vs Spinosaurus debates again, shall we?

MemberTyrannosaurus RexSep-24-2013 3:24 PMI think Allosaurs and Charcarodontosaurids take the cake as far as sauropod slayers go.
Jack of all trades. Master of none
Rex Fan 684
MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 3:25 PMI would argue the allosaurids/carcharodontosaurs are the best sauropod fighters.
I look at it this way. It's not the dinosaurs fault if he's so famous. I go by the facts and accepted theories when it comes to dinosaur fights.

MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 3:26 PMT.rex vs Spinosaurus is dead now, we talking about T.rex vs Dacentrurus.
Gigadino
MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 3:28 PM@RexFan: Ok, if you like it. But dacentrurus CAN kill a T.rex. The largest T.rex is just as large as the largest Dacentrurus, and the latter has a better weaponary.
Lord Vader
MemberTyrannosaurus RexSep-24-2013 3:28 PMI was referring to the overrated comments when I suggested not starting up Rex vs Spino.

Rex Fan 684
MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 3:29 PMYes, and T-rex lived with heavily armored/dangerous prey like Ankylosaurus, Triceratops, etc. All of which are more advanced than Dacentrurus.Not to mention every single source of info I've seen state that Dacentrurus was no more than 26 ft or so. And they mentioned the 1.5 meter hip bone.

MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 3:32 PMAnkylosaurus is a really easy prey for T.rex, as it was much smaller than the latter.
And what you mean by advanced? Triceratops was no better than Dacentrurus.
Rex Fan 684
MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 3:36 PMLater dinosaurs had more advanced brains, defense systems, eating habits, etc. There's a reason why stegosaurs were replaced.
I can see this really isn't going anywhere, so this is my last comment on the topic.

MemberTyrannosaurus RexSep-24-2013 3:39 PMAnkylosaurus, easy prey? You're serious, right? I forget how big that tail club was (70ish pounds I think), but it was big, and solid bone, the size of beachball (I think), and it had armour made of bone, combine that with the fact that it was close to the ground, it would be a formidable opponent for ANY predator (Spinosaurus, Giganotosaurus, Charcarodontosaurus, etc.).

Gigadino
MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 3:42 PMYes, easy prey. The tail club is very small, Ankylosaurus is too small, too small for any giant theropods.
And RexFan, Triceratops, however, was not an easy prey for T. rex, as it was not Dacentrurus ...Dacentrurus is a good opponent for T.rex.
Lord Vader
MemberTyrannosaurus RexSep-24-2013 3:48 PMArgument is futile, I'm out.

Deltadromeus
MemberCompsognathusSep-24-2013 5:21 PMI must agree that that Dac was a good opponent. But here are opsome anky facts.
1: It was 30 feet long
2: It had a (small but still heavy) bony tail
3: It was armored
4: It is low to the ground and hard to reach by larger theropods
Now of course besides those facts that clearly make Anky a tough opponent, he isn't a tough opponent.
DinoSteve93
MemberCompsognathusSep-25-2013 6:10 AMI feel a little sorry for this topic. Sure, I still think the fights didn't end as I expected, but let's face the facts: every dinosaur could just lose as it could just win. The chances are pretty close for both dinos. In this fight Dacentrurus had won, but in another the T-rex could win, as well as for the spino vs. diplo. ;)

MemberCompsognathusSep-25-2013 7:56 AM^ i'm agree with this.
Dynamosaurus Imperiosus/ Raptorexxx 700
MemberCompsognathusSep-25-2013 1:02 PMiam a rex fan but i think that even though daecturnus is REALLY well armoured you just made the tyrannosaurus too defenseless as tyrannosaurus was actually designed to be an armoured dinosaur hunter i see that it would be a 50/50 bet and i see that a trex was infact based on new studies able to flip over prey larger than itself using it's puny arms so i dont see why a trex won't be able to ram the dacenturus and flip it over

MemberCompsognathusSep-28-2013 7:59 PMI expected the outcomes. I guess I'm one of the few people who support your decisions. Most theropods above 11 meters could kill D. carnegii. It's mostly neck and tail, and the neck is a major weakness. An animal as big as Spinosaurus could kill it by pushing it over , slashing its neck, biting its neck or a combination of the three. I won't voice my opinion on Rex vs Dac, since there's potential for it happening in my series.
And Ankylosaurus wasn't as big as everyone thought. Certainly smaller than 30 feet. However, in DF season 3, I'll be using upper estimates.
Announcement Coming Soon
Prepare yourselves, DinoFans!
