This way, weaker units lose all their effectiveness as soon as the big bads come into play, and don't forget about bosses whose stats are even higher. I stand by my first statement, this mod makes weak units weaker or even useless and strong units stronger, forcing you to use as many high-stat units as possible and only abuse weak units for their abilities.
Consider a tank and a company of riflemen with machine guns only: do you really think it makes any difference if you're shooting at the tank with 10 machine guns or a 1000? No difference whatsoever, because no matter how many machine guns you use, they cannot even penetrate the armor of the tank. Even armour-piercing bullets have problems finding their way thru.
You need stronger weapon against tanks: bazooka, grenades, mines - then you have a chance.
Back to our question, I think that the same analogy applies to the dragons and a peasant.

BTW: did you try the tutorial with this mod? (At least the first where you beat the dragon?)
