Exactly.
Swordsmen, Griffins... they are not bad and definitely good tanks. They just tend to take losses.
Griffins are a unit for certain strategies involving their high speed and split abilities, but if you really put them to the forefront, they will suffer losses. Retaliation helps them nothing in this regard, I would still prefer Royal Snakes over them. You will have to rez them anyways. They just take losses.
But a Black/Green/whatever Dragon can quickly traverse the battlefield and attract enemy attacks. They have high hp pools and awesome defense.
They will not take much losses or any losses at all, and resurrecting them with Inquisitors works very well.
I would suggest going to the Elven Lands and sail along the shores till you find the island where you can buy Emerald Dragons.
Another trick would be to use Lina's spiked ball or a Phoenix as diversion.
Dragons >>>> level 2-3 tank units. They are not only better tanks, they are better per se.
