In all of Tolkien's works, only five individual dragons were ever mentioned, and only three of which in detail. Obviously more existed. What I question, is how feasible killing one could be. It seems to me, that it shouldn't be realisticly possible, without either a very clever (and reliable) plan, extreme luck, or extreme magical enhancement. Seriously, what "conventional" means could possibly work? A dragon anywhere near the size of Ancalagon (large enough to crush a mountain range when he died) should be completely untouchable, and yet Earendil was somehow able to kill him. What do you guys do think?
