Hmm. That IWD dragon skeleton was pretty damn big wasn't it. If that was an ancient dragon, some of the BG2 ones must be younglings then.
Good post, 250. One thing I will add though is that the dragons should've been harder to beat in BG2. A 12th-level party shouldn't be able to just walk in and beat an ancient red.
