I'm looking for an old D&D supplement about Dragons. I can't remember the setting or it's name. Hell, I'm not even sure if it is D&D but I remember that the stat blocks did mention THACO and the lay out was very AD&D.
Anyway, here are the details I remember
1) Blue cover with two dragons fighting on the cover. I think they were red and gold.
2) It described 12 types of dragons. The classic 10 plus the Platinum and Chromatic Dragon (Tiamat/Takhisis).
3) Artwork. The copper dragon had a beak like mouth. The red dragon has a slight horn on it's snout kind of like a ceratosaurus. The platinum did not have wings in its picture. The Blue is on a mountain and has a crown of horns more or less (Probably one of the best pictures in the book). The black dragon had a very bird like head even to the point of having feathers (looked a lot like a hawk). The Chromatic Dragon looked very similar to some of the depictions of Takhisis from Dragonlance.
4) Details that I recall. It mentioned that the more human(humanoid) blood a blue dragon consumed the deeper blue it's skin became. This is an odd one now, it mentioned that black dragons suffered mutations due to where they flew and lived, such mutations included avian heads and having four wings. At some point in the book it talks about how a mutated dragon would be treated like a human born with a rat head (then a picture of a rat headed human).
If anyone can help me with this I'd be very appreciative. Thanks in advance.
IIRC the 2E Draconomicon got reprinted. Dragon Mountain is all adventure and features a red dragon on a mountain for the cover of the box. The Draconomicon was a deep blue with a dragon on the cover and talked about all of the things you mention.
Maybe DRAGONS by Mayfair Games? I think that had something about mutated black dragons.

I think this is it. The cover looks right. I'm trying to find some site that has a touch more info on it or a few pags scans.
Thanks for the help from everyone so far.
*Correction: This is the right book. Thanks to everyone for your help and thank you greatly Thorindale, I've been trying to find this book for over a decade now.
