Alternatively, in some versions, you can kill the dragon by falling on top of him through a pit on the level above. Presumably this is mechanical as the party and a monster cannot co-exist on the same tile.

I only found out about that on accident something like 20 years after I first played the game. Because I got startled by the phone ringing and accidentally hit the wrong direction button, and fell into a pit, then saw the "smoke" you see when a monster is killed, and a bunch of dragon steaks at my feat.

Game envy here. I've never had the pleasure of this experience.
Anyone know if you can time a fall through one of the pits above the dragon,
being reasonably sure you'll kill the brute?
