Likely the only time they would fly is to reach battle (by dive-bombing from above) or to reach a vulnerable-looking enemy it couldn't reach by walking.Remember, fighting isn't always about doing what may be smartest from a tactical point of view--creatures like fighting in the ways that are most comfortable for them. For Blacks, Reds, and Whites, their abilities and strategies function best from the ground, flight being used only as needed to enhance their assaults. Greens and Blues prefer the air, because that's where they best use their abilities.Plus, there are numerous ways to deal with flying opponents. Ranged characters have an edge, of course, but even melee fighters should carry some kind of ranged weapon so as not to be useless in such situations. Powers that immobilize, stun, or knock opponents prone bring down fliers, which is the perfect time for the melee characters to converge on the grounded enemy and unload as brutal an assault as possible.There are plenty of ways around the fact dragons can fly. ^_^ Not all of them like flying and fighting. Those that do, when you DO bring them to the ground, are very vulnerable while there.</blockquote>
