Purchase the Dragons Faction on Forgefire!

Here there be Dragons! These massive monstrosities of legend have come to Smash Up, and they took smashing bases literally. They have little time for your opponent’s shenanigans, for other factions are crunchy, and taste good with ketchup.

Dragons are from the It's Your Fault! set and do not have a Titan card.

Complexity Level: LOW-MEDIUM
Mechanics
  • Reducing Breakpoints
  • Punishing Opponents

Dragons specialized in ruining other players control over bases and make bases unattractive to other while improving your plays. Their minions Hatchling, and Imperial Dragon give more control over it while reducing theirs and minions like Wyvern can destroy minions and are able to reduce the breakpoints of bases making them easier to capture. Dragons have many actions that can ruin other player action or control of the base. Action such as Dragon Lands, Bring Down the Walls, Intimidating Presence and Dangerous Ground give player more control over bases while making other weaker and action like Raze and Burn it Down give you an ability to destroy an action control over any bases as well. Finally, their best and worst are Ruins and Great Wyrm as they have the ability to reduce the VP score thus reducing the number of point upon capturing a base. Like Tricksters, the downside is that Dragons' abilities can be avoided easily.
