How To Kill a Dragon

Bigneonwolf · 03-29-2019, 02:16 PM

Eagerly awaiting for my Kickstarter rewards.

Especially the 14 hex dragon.

It did get me wondering how a party could take out such a behemouth. It would be tough enough with a 7 hex dragon

Anybody have any ideas?

There was a discussion about this very thing a month or so back...

Send in two Halflings. The first uses UC III to pin the beast and the second uses a dagger to slit its throat.

I don't think any moderately sized party of RAW characters is going to beat one of those things in a stand up fight any time soon!

Sorry for the sidetrack, but what is the meaning of "RAW" in this context? I've seen the term come up in other discussions, but I have no idea what it means.

As pointed out in the firepower table

https://www.hcobb.com/tft/firepower.html

14 hex dragon as listed is worth seven to five low level characters.

Add in my mods and it's worth a dozen or so.

As with most things, it comes down to tactics, and special abilities.

Dragons can get a lot of extra survivability by using their intelligence, flight, tactics, and any surprises they might have.

Hmmm, a trap using a few dozen petards maybe?😳
