Big Red is a Pansy. I can take him out easily with a level 9 to 11 party, no sweat.

Cast Spook, pelt with missles, cast Spook, pelt with missles. Once he is worn down, move in for the kill.

If the dragon is running away from you in fear, he can't hurt you nor can he disrupt your spells.

If you don't have Spook, well, there are a million different ways, some of them don't even involve cheese. It is both possible and quite easy for a low level party to bust Big Red's chops using no cheese. Insect Swarms, Harm, Greater Malison, Lower Resist, Polymorph (Yes, you can turn Big Red into a squirrel. Beware, he becomes a flying squirrel with a lethal Wing Buffet and he becomes QUITE ANGRY) If you have a Cleric, try Miscast Magic, followed by Doom, then Finger of Death. That should pretty much end the fight right there.

For being a big scary dragon, he sure is a weenie.
