Got a dragon and it didn't seem to be able to path past my fortifications. I've had goblin sieges path just fine. Anyway, I sent out three elite wrestlers and they killed the dragon pretty quickly, without even getting bruised. --[[User:Gesangbaer|Gesangbaer]] 19:48, 8 September 2009 (EST) | Got a dragon and it didn't seem to be able to path past my fortifications.

:Adding my experience of disappointment: I just had a regular swordsdwarf defeat a dragon... I have no idea how he did it. No bolts were involved, my crossbow squad was still practicing at the archery targets at the time. I only lost a mason and a carpenter to the dragon. Very disappointing.

− | Will | + | Will the defend themselves if they get attacked? I would love burning the bloody goblins who go after my dwarf families. It seems they won't move much if you let them out of their cages. It would also be fun to have a match with 2 mega beasts against each other.--[[User:Seaneat|Seaneat]] 13:37, 4 August 2008 (EDT) |

I have built a few hundred cage traps around my fortress. The second a Dragon appeared, I ordered (o) my dwarves to stay indoors and just waited. AWESOME! Caught him in a dumb cage trap. Shucks the kobalts don't get caught in them... (so I put a few stone traps around the exits/entrances). | I have built a few hundred cage traps around my fortress.

I send in a military squad to fight the dragon. My champion (the one *without* my legendary shield, his was -quality- iron) runs to the dragon, gets hit POINT BLANK by dragonfire (which once again kills the plants without setting them on fire) and doesn't even get hurt. Repeat when two swordsdwarves, one who is only a low level shield user, get hit at about a third of the total range. I killed the dragon, but honestly, he didn't light a thing on fire and couldn't hurt the dwarves. It would AT LEAST make sense if the dwarves got light injuries from the fact they are standing on freshly scorched land while it's in the process of being scorched again.[[User:Milskidasith|Milskidasith]] 17:08, 9 November 2008 (EST) | I send in a military squad to fight the dragon.

I found my latest dragon invader in the Unit List as an "Uninvited Guest." Do all mega beasts show up as uninvited guests, or is their status variable?

I recently captured a skeletal dragon that doesn't seem to be able to destroy drawbridges. I managed to build a pen for him using a drawbridge as a door... Can anyone decisively confirm that skeletal dragons are BUILDINGDESTROYER:1 and not 2? --[[Special:Contributions/155.69.95.232|155.69.95.232]] 09:28, 19 November 2009 (UTC) | I recently captured a skeletal dragon that doesn't seem to be able to destroy drawbridges.

:Other testing seems to suggest that BUILDINGDESTROYER:2s do not destroy drawbridges, at least when lowered (since otherwise they'd destroy their path into your fort). --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 13:40, 19 November 2009 (UTC) | :Other testing seems to suggest that BUILDINGDESTROYER:2s do not destroy drawbridges, at least when lowered (since otherwise they'd destroy their path into your fort). --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 13:40, 19 November 2009 (UTC) | ||
