BallienDragons

The Dreadthorn Dragon from BallienCreatures, as a standalone mod. No other mods required.
- Huge flying dragon that hunts on the ground and from the air
- Fire breath, fireballs, low attack passes and hover attacks
- Takes off, glides and lands on its own
- Reacts to anyone close, takes off when surrounded
- Immune to fire, tough against small arms: bring explosives
- Real ragdoll death that keeps its momentum in flight
- Tramples trees and fences, burns buildings and vehicles
- Works in multiplayer and on dedicated servers
- Game Master ready: Ballien Creatures faction tab
Note: do not load it together with BallienCreatures, the dragon is already inside it.

PATCH 1.0.3#
Hotfix: fixed a server crash when a Game Master takes control of the dragon on servers running Tactical Animation Overhaul or other mods that expect the possessed character to be a soldier.

PATCH 1.1# 
Game Master dragon control update: possess the dragon and fly it yourself with full controls for takeoff, landing, hover, fire breath on the ground and in flight, fireballs with cooldown and a brand new cinematic roar that echoes across the map and can be heard from far away. New in-game HUD with health, fireball cooldown and your real key bindings (H hides everything for clean recordings), all keys rebindable in the Controls menu with gamepad support. Fixed the first fireball sometimes being invisible, improved fireball impact effects.

PATCH 1.0# 
Wing hit boxes now follow the wings in every animation.
Fire breath only burns what the flame actually reaches.
Fireball explosions always show where they hit, for every player.
In flight the dragon throws a fireball every time it's ready.
It reacts at once to enemies close to it, and takes off when surrounded or taking heavy damage on the ground.
Less damage from impacts and collisions.
