That's make no sense! Nidhogg didn't fly! It spent its life curled around the Yggrasil(sp?) tree knawing on the roots.
Mmmmmm...Roots...

It's probably better to just call it a dragon. It's a good enough name for the regular crowd, while calling it Nidhogg wouldn't quite sound right to those familiar with norse mythology. No big deal but it still raises my curiosity.
Wich deities that get wich units will not be decided only by the mythological factor. Game balance weighs heavier.

Remember those screenshots from Computer Games Magazine? A couple of them had a tree with huge roots. Maybe that has something to do with the dragon

It was mentioned in the CGMagazine preview on AoM. I thought it a little odd since I never imagined Nidhogg to be a flying dragon, but more the big snake kind of thing.

Me too! IMO tehy should have another dragon thats called Nidhogg and have it be like a big snake and just call the current dragon "dragon".
