I don't know if it's possible, but I'd like to see more of the lionesses potential colours than just the shades of gold and cream. I think that the colours of lionesses could be a regional thing. For example, if you go to the marshlands, you're going to find your browns and blacks, because it's a darker area. Going to the savannah would yield the variations of gold, and the desert would hold the cream ones - all due to the environments and such. The waterhole would yield a mixture of all of them, and perhaps a where the "rarer" coats such as white and albino could be found. Along the lines of the cubs - I don't know if it's been mentioned - but I personally would like to see them carry all traits from parents. Say if the mother holds 100% darken black and the father holds 100% under white 1, the child would have ~50% of both markings (give or take some percentages depending on random chance, but in the general area of like 70ish - 30ish depending on said random chance). Even if some of the markings on the parents are not full or very visible, there should still be a level of throwback on the children. I was rather perplexed when a child from my Spotting Light (93%) & Black Gradient 1 (87%) lioness only held Spotting Light (72%). |

Also, as I said in a different post, 'predictable' markings will eventually cause players to become bored. If you breed your panther-marked Lioness to a panther-marked stud, and BOOM you get panther markings.... every time? even most of the time? That seems like it would duck the fun out of working hard for a rare marking... What about this alternative? Giving a percentage of 'passing on' a specific marking, which is different from ALL other markings? So say Rosette may pass on only 25% of the time, but Smudge passes on 50% of the time... only all in a spectrum- from 10% to 80/90 percent.... 0 players like this post! Like? |

I support the first half, but not the second. It would make marking genetics too predictable 0 players like this post! Like? |
