The 3.5 change to square 30 ft space for colossal dragons doesn't actually help them with a widened antimagic field (I originally misread it as multiplying radius by 100% when it actually multiplies total area by 100%) so you're still correct in saying this isn't a useful thing for a colossal dragon to do.However, the impact the change from 3.0's rectangular face to 3.5's square space has on the matter of a dragon using an antimagic field is that a widened antimagic field becomes effective for gargantuan dragons. They now have a square space of 20 ft rather than a rectangular face of 20 ft x 40 ft. This means that a few of the metallic great wyrms can cast widened antimagic field on themselves, and other gargantuan dragons who manage to obtain and use scrolls of widened antimagic field can use them effectively.Using a completely literal interpretation you may be correct, but if you go with such an interpretation you're begging for abuse. I think that the intent here is that the spell is centered on the center of your space, or one corner of the center square of your space if you have an odd number of squares in your space (spaces of 5 ft, 15 ft, etc).</blockquote>
