They are cool. Why aren`t they any in SoA? I guess they`re just too big for it.

They could only be included in an SoA mod that required ToB to be installed as well, as the Fire Giant avatar is not on the SoA discs. (SoA does have Ettins, though, which might be even bigger.)

I guess the best question is where would you place one. In the main city, too big. In the underwater city, too wet. In the insane asylum, now thats insane. Perhaps in the elven city working for Irenicus (now that would work, though I think the Adamantine Gholems are bad enough).

Just look at the indication that the different "Giant" potions say concerning the different strengths of the giants, and you'll get the picture. Hill Giants are the weakest of them all, Cloud Giants are the strongest.

And isn't it true that The Darkest Day has Frost Giants in it?

Hey, it just occured to me for some reason that there are no cloud giants in the game, or any of those other giants (excluding fire), for that matter. It would be cool to encounted Stone Giants, Hill Giants, Frost Giants, and Cloud Giants
