General Tips for fighting Dragons
Note: This is assuming you want to fight fair and square, no cloud-kill, no backstabbing at the start, no laying traps galore, etc... ...

Maintain 5 summons at all times. Mountain Bears, Elementals, and Skeleton Warriors are good.
Summons in front, melee party members at the back of the Dragon. Avoid placing your melee party members in front if you can, to avoid the Wing Buffet.
Breach the Stoneskin, Pierce Magic the spell protections. Insect Plague the Dragon if you can. Lower Resist and Greater Malison will help a lot too.
Drink Health potions as neccessary, do not be stingy or wait until the last minute. If below 50%,
DRINK.
Maintain melee combat at all times, do not let the Dragon cast his Dragon's Breath.
Use your best ammunitions on the Dragon, Arrows of Biting/Piercing/+2, Bolts of Lightning, Bullet +2, etc... ... You're fighting a Dragon, give it Hell.
Note: Actually, I find Dragons to be easy, unless you play max difficulty then they can pose a problem.
Have only reloaded two times in fighting Dragons, once I knew how to, Dragons were pansies.
Compared to Mind Flayers, Dragons are scaly hamsters. Is there no way to be immuned to intelligence drain?!?!
