    Default Zombie Dragons

    In Draconomicon it doesn't state whether the Dragon can do a full round attack. Since it's a zombie subtype, do he get a full round or zombie subtype attack? It has a sample dragon with Full Attack stats.

    Partial Action only, IIRC.

    EDIT: yeah, under the "slow" entry: only a single standard action or move action each round.

    K, just wondering why they would put the Full attack stats on the sample if they had partial action.

    Remember, it CAN charge though. It can make a single move and attack as a partial charge as a standard action. With a high dragon fly speed it can actually move pretty fast and still bite something in one round.

    partial charge + dive = up to x2 your standard movement rate (depending on your position)

    If you give one Pounce, it can full attack on Charge.

    Because it seems like WotC actively tried to make as many stat block flawed as they possibly could.
