Dread Lord Ships

from GalCiv2 Forums
I've got one question.Are the Dread Lords' ships the Dread Lords themselves and do they have genders you know like are the squid shaped ships males and are the manta ray shaped ships females? What do you think?

Obviously, the ships are just that - their ships. The Dread Lords themselves are what you see during an invasion.

They look human. You see one in the intro cinematic for the Dread Lords, cloaked, hooded, and holding a staff.

No, the Dread Lords themselves don't invade. There are only 100 of them! They make their Dread Knight pawns(of which 1000 were created by Draginol) do that dirty work. The Dreads just oversee the entire master plan of how to get rid of the useless younger civilizations(like trapping Earth, controlling the Korath, etc.). Their life-force crystals create ships and buildings for them, and they probably don't need money anyway so economy is a non-issue.

Yes, you do see one of them in the intro movie, however, standing inside his ship and watching as it kills an Arnor ship. They look human because they were created by a human(or rather, human-turned-Mithrilar). Nobody knows if they have genders or not.
