As important is the element of strategy. I don’t trust precious metal or gem dragons to forego some underhanded trickery, I’d rather the mind dragon not possess the rest of our foes before we slay them, and we ought to prevent the bone dragon from resurrecting our previous opponents, if that is indeed within its capabilities.

You've thought it through, for sure. Sounds like as good of a plan as we can get.
