How to use dragons?

[Nick_K]

Dragons have several advantages over wryms, although I rarely use either. Dragons fly, have a breath weapon (in Dom2 the blue dragon's was my favourite) and have much higher prot than wyrms. They also start with magic, which can lead to substantial cost savings if you want high levels for blesses or whatever.
Finally, the ability to take human form means that they can be given more utility items such as dwarven hammers and path boosters.

Of course, Wyrms have a few advantages as well, but dragons can easily be a solid choice.
