[QUOTE="TwoSix, post: 3996329, member: 205"] We don't know how fast adventurers can move. You're still conflating 3e magic with 4e dragon. You can't do that. Again, 3e thinking. Being good at combat is a good way to keep people out of your lair. You can eat them. You disrupt their network? Blackmail/ally/eat the people leading it? What magic was the dragon using before, [I]Protection against spies[/I]? Yes, because nobles are keen to go up against a dragon. Yes, but plenty will. How many did you need? Why do you have this obsession with dragons as political figures? Is this a common theme in your campaign? SO don't let people find out! That's what a spy network is for. You seem to have a flaw I've seen in several world builders, where you believe the world has to be in perfect equilibrium before it can make sense. You point out all the flaws the dragon has in its plans...but what plan doesn't have flaws? It doesn't mean the dragon won't try, and it doesn't mean the dragon can't succeed for a while. It just means the dragon can be brought be down, because it has these flaws. I mean, think how many flaws exist in a human monarchial kingdom in a D&D world, but that doesn't mean they don't exist.
