Damn you, Reign of Fire. Why can't I resist the urge to patch your plot holes? Whyyyyyy? Damn it, someone make the studio people go off on a six week vacation in Aruba or something so they won't notice that someone's actually trying to make the blasted thing plausible when they're not looking!
Or in other words: Show of hands, peeps. How many people here really believe that a species that has to go from an egg the size of a man's torso to an animal the size of a small Indian elephant in the space of less than ten years could have been responsible for destroying everything? Uh huh. Now, how many people think for even one instant that every half-assed terrorist group on the face of the planet wouldn't view the dragons as their allies against established governments and use that distraction as their chance to blow up everything they could get their disgusting little paws on? It wasn't the dragons that blasted the world into ash, although God knows they were trying. It was humanity's attempts to eradicate the dragons combined with humanity's internal secondary conflicts that did... oh, at least two-thirds of the blasting, I would say. The dragons just kept on coming, that's all.
ETA:
Brane.
NO.
No, you are not allowed to put together any sort of strategy game whatsoever in which you assign the different factions (Dragons, Human Governments, Human Opportunists, and possibly Civilians) different strengths, weaknesses, and bonuses and then rustle up people to play it multiple times so you can finally figure out exactly what it takes to get the Dragon faction to win! No!!
