"The Bone Dragon is almost treated like a level six unit, mostly because of its statistics... that look like those of a level six unit."
Not really? Bone dragons have (quite a bit) more damage, health and immunities than the strongest level six, not to mention morale penalty to enemy, which is especially useful in conjunction with expert Sorrow, Spirit of Oppression, and eventual morale penalties the enemy army may already be experiencing.

- I think you're probably right; it requires proper strategy to take advantage of its abilities, though, and it's still the weakest level 7 creature. By contrast, Ghost Dragons are arguably not the weakest level 7 upgrade ... though they're still pretty far down the list. Memetics 01:27, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
Bone Dragons from Skeleton Transformer
In my version of Heroes 3 (Restoration of Erathia - not sure exactly which patch), Bone Dragons are turned into skeletons in the Skeleton Transformer. I've yet to test other Dragons in the transformer (I'll do so tomorrow, if I remember), but I'd appreciate if someone else could confirm whether Dragons are turned into Skeletons or Bone Dragons in RoE (and maybe SoD/AB, too) Ibraesil (talk) 14:44, 6 November 2015 (CET)
