As I noted about nine months ago, most of 4E's most important innovations are OGL content to begin with, and they're getting overlooked because of a mix of company loyalty and 4E-rage. Those self same ideas over in Star Wars Saga Edition (such as the math restructuring, defenses, skills, etc.) are getting rave reviews and applause.

If there's one dragon, it's a solo monster.
If there's five dragons, they're standard monsters.
If there's a dozen dragons, either most of them are minions or your DM is tired of the campaign.
