The thing i love about the Baldur's Gate dragons is that u have to actually work hard to beat them. I mean, it took me about 10 reloads to get Firkraag BADLY INJURED, let alone beat him. In NWN, i don't think they have the right to most powerful creature in the realms....

Any thoughts?

I have to agree with you slicer. In NWN my fighter just walked up to a dragon and started hacking, and it was done with. My advice: Don't try that in BG2.

Yeah, i'd be surprised if Dundee's "Conan" tactic works on any dragon in BG2.

Dragons are definately cool, but after a while even they become too easy to kill. If only the engine restrictions weren't so limited as to allow only one dragon on the screen/area.

Fighting multiple dragons would be the ultimate fix for the insane, suicidal godspawn my PC is!

Actually, that would be against the spirit of the Conan Tactic. The Conan Tactic advocates the bare skills of your characters. They charge in... unprepared.

A dream scenerio I always had. 23 Dragons, 11 Red and 11 Blue with 1 Black, playing Soccer!

Red 2 Wing Buffets to Red 5. Red 5 is making a run for the goalpost... OH! Nice interception by Blue 4! And with a long-distance Wing Buffet, he punts the Bhaalspawn to the other side of the field.
