If you wanted a good cheap W9 or N9 blessing, and a monster-type pretender, the dragon would be the way to go. For F9, you'd really be better off with the Moloch.

I'm just curious - but why do people ever go for N9 blessing? Maybe I just haven't figured out the right way to deal with this, or maybe I'm just giving it too much importance, but every time I've played with N4+ blessing - the berserker trait screws me over. Any sacred caster (including most importantly your Prophet, but this also happens a lot with both TienChi S&A and Pythium casters- two of my favorite nations) will get the berserk trait whenever they're blessed (and this is a permanent condition for the prophet). And believe me, if you're focused on mage power, the Last thing you want is you want is for your favorite Arch Theurg, or Celestial Master go running straight into the horde of enemy hydras just cause he got nicked with a sling bullet!

I'm one of them who play 9 blessing dragons. Especially when playing C'tis.
C'tis - Miasma, dominion 8, Green Dragon with N9.
1. You spread deceases and expand your domion quickly.(coorect me if I'm wrong, you'll get extra income for each +1 domion strength in every province with Miasma).
2. Strong SC
3. Your Sacred Serpents gets berserk +3, immune poison 100%, regeneration. Back up with poison slingers and it really kick a**.
4. With N9 on your SC pretender you can cast some of the coolest spell IMO (enchantments like gift of health etc. which is good because you are a SC).
5. Make sure that your shaman(s) forge a amulet of luck...when you can afford it empowering your SC with water so you can cast quickness. Also make some Sacred Serpents to Commanders so they can lead your armies.
Another Dragon combination would be Caelum. but not bless 9. Blue Dragon W4 A4. Before the dragon goes to battle cast quickness, Mirror Image, etc. and again you have a killer machine
