Yes. Let's move on.

Yes. Let's move on.

So do we have anything left for them apart from flavour text?

 

[freyar]

I don't think so, once you paste in the sporocarp.

Looks good.

Starting on tactics:

Amoeboid slime molds attack instinctively, slamming and attempting to grab onto opponents, digesting them slowly with acid.

I'd prefer the prettier syntax of the following:

Amoeboid slime molds attack instinctively, attempting to slam and grab onto opponents, then digesting them slowly with acid.

That's fine with me. Next:

Amoeboid swarms of slime mold simply crawl over their opponents. ???

Slime mold slugs attack potential food sources agressively, engulfing as many opponents as possible and bashing the rest.

Slime mold slugs attack potential food sources agressively, engulfing as many opponents as possible and bashing the rest.

Swarms of amoeboid slime molds instinctively crawl over the most edible object they sense, usually the nearest living creature, and digest it with their acids.

A slime mold slug tries to slam, grab, and engulf as many opponents as it can accommodate. It may need to digest food it has already engulfed before it can engulf additional opponents it has grabbed.

 

[freyar]

That'll do.

Updating Working Draft.

I'm thinking it makes most sense to blend the background text into one entry, since each form is a different stage in the lifecycle.
