Escort Mission on Nightmare Skill (with tips)

I liked the escort mission because for the first time, it was using the dragon for a concrete goal instead of just transportation. True, it did introduce some new skills for the first time, but it did give you some time to get used to them.

Anyone who had played some of the previous Flying Fortress levels should know that the key to survival as a dragon is to keep moving, and that the towers are more dangerous than the fliers. You need to use your mobility to your advantage, so staying next to the zeppelin is clearly wrong.

I think that Champion Academy and the dungeon which followed is exactly the kind of "use all your skills to your advantage" stuff people are requesting. It had fighting, clever puzzles, jumping sequences, all the elements which had been in the game before except mind-reading (which was required to complete some other main quest things in the city already).

Doing a series of boss fights would have been repeating the climax of Ego Draconis.
