What Counts as a Rex Length?

3.1

Rex Length

Newrange

Whenever a rule refers to a Rex length, it means the length of an adult Rex measured from the tip of its head to the tip of its tail at 75% growth. • 1 Rex length = one adult Rex head-to-tail length. • 2 Rex lengths = two adult Rex head-to-tail lengths. • 5 Rex lengths = five adult Rex head-to-tail lengths. The measurement is based on an adult Rex regardless of which dinosaur is involved.
