Placing Azure Dragons (as well as any living Dragons) in the [[Skeleton Transformer]] will give you [[Bone Dragon]]s instead of regular [[Skeleton]]s.

The Azure Dragons can be used in various ways, especially due to their speed and toughness. You can block shooters, use-up retaliations or even defend your own shooters. However, keep in mind that in late-game, the opponent might be able to dispose of them relatively easy, with its own troops or even [[Implosion]]. But they can be [[Resurrection|Resurrected]], on the other hand. Additionally, their ability to spread [[Fear]] among the enemies, causing them to freeze and lose their combat round action, can turn the tide of the battle.

Azure Dragons are level 7 neutral creatures that can be recruited from the Frozen Cliffs.

"Little is known of the Azure Dragon. It is both rare and mighty, thus few have seen it, and fewer still have survived its attacks. This powerful creature is not much bigger than most dragons, but is said to be capable of enduring prolonged physical attack. It is said those standing face-to-face with an Azure Dragon tend to freeze from pure fear." AB manual

Special Ability: Fear[edit | hide]

Azure Dragon's fear special ability is a passive ability, which means it does not require any specific action from the stack. The fear may occur only at the beginning of enemy stack's turn, causing them to freeze in fear of the Azure Dragons and effectively lose their chance to act that combat round. The working principle is very similar to bad morale.

Creatures immune to fear :

Appearance[edit | hide]

Azure Dragons were added in Armageddon's Blade, so there are no Azure Dragons or Frozen Cliffs in Restoration of Erathia. They also appear at both the beginning and end of the Azure Dragons scenario from the Dragon Slayer campaign in Armageddon's Blade.
