Used frequently as a training tool for young dragon slayers, many [[Wizard|wizards]] also create these creatures for the crystal they shed."{{-}}<sup>[[Armageddon's Blade Manual Page 20|AB manual]]''</sup>

| | {{Artifact 'see also'}} |
| Placing Crystal Dragons (as well as any living Dragons) in the [[Skeleton Transformer]] will give you [[Bone Dragon]]s instead of regular [[Skeleton]]s.

|
| They are also the second strongest creature in the game in raw stats, the first being the [[Azure Dragon]]. Crystal Dragons can also be resurrected, probably due to their magical heart, even though they are considered to be golems.

| == Crystal generation special ability ==
| |
| Crystal Dragons have vaguely phrased [[special ability]] called ''crystal generation''. It produces three crystals (3x {{C}}) at the beginning of each week if the player has at least one crystal dragon in any of his armies. The effect is not cumulative, which means that several crystal dragon stacks in a hero's army or several crystal dragon stacks in different heroes' armies does not produce more than the three crystals.
| |
| | |
| == Appearance ==
| |
| Crystal Dragons were added in {{ab}} so there are no Crystal Dragons or [[Crystal Cavern (dwelling)|Crystal Cavern]]s in {{roe}}.
| |
| | |
| == Trivia ==
| |
| | |
| Even though in the game files themselves the Crystal Dragon and other neutral dragons are considered to be level 7, the official editor shows they are level 10 (8 for [[Faerie Dragon]]). This is either due to code limitations and impossibility of creating a unit with tier higher than 7, either because the developers didn't have time, motivation or reason to add a new creature level in the game code and invest time in that, just telling us they are level 10, respectively 8. As such, even now their levels are still being debated.
