I cannot fly with that zeppelin and get it to the end. Tried it bunch of times, tried going ahead of it, tried using special attack.... Nothing works.
Special attack does not destroy everything on small island, just the one thing I targeted.
I enjoyed the game, but frankly, I am very frustrated right now, and I don't think I'm going to finish it. This part is an annoyance that shouldn't be.

I had the same problem and received this helping hand.

---------------------------------------------------------------
Paris, make sure you:

- Take down all towers systematically from island to island. Use a combination of Fire Breath and Fire Sphere on the Ballista Towers.
- Use the Wrath of the Patriarch skill to clear clusters like Lightning or Nest Towers surrounded by Ballistas. Use this skill as many times as you can: once the cooldown is over, immediately pick a cluster of towers and go wham, bam, thank you ma'am.
- Dragon Burst can also take down buildings and cools down rather quickly, so it's a great skill to use when there are multiple high end targets you need to take down that are too scattered to effectively use Wrath of the Patriarch for - by that I mean the line of Nest Daises.
- Don't stay close to the zeppelin, but head out and clear its path. Never mind when the captain shouts 'Where are you going?'. Just blast everything as rapidly as you can.
Do this and you're sure to make it. On the final battle!

Took me 4 attempts, but I made it in the end. claphands

And mind you...The real special attack is the Wrath of the Patriarch not the zeppelin bombardment that as you say take out one target....

Finally made it. That wrath of the patriarch thing helped, did not see that before. Thx for help.

I am up to attempt number 4 and no joy so far but have just joined this forum and now read this helpful thread so will journey on to attempt number 5 and not give up in sheer frustration!!!! Quick question though - how quickly and how can I max my dragon skills and will that help now or is it too late?

No,it's too late,you can't do anything to your dragon skills at this stage.

It's another piece of bad balance/bad design in the end-game.

The remaining points are automatically set.

At the start of this phase you get a message telling you skills that are raised (if not yet at the max).

Thanks very much to Imarion and Lostsheep - have given up (for the time being anyway) and will find another game to focus on as dying so often was becoming such a frustration it was ruining the overall pleasure of the game.
