Given the average reputed size of a dragons hoard, it swould seem a
very likely and very attractive nut for a group of players to band
together to crack.
Consider the cae of an older dragon with several million pieces of
gold on a game where the average rate of gold acquisition by players
is on the order of 100 or less per hour? Wouldn't the idea of 20 or
so players banding together to somehow snag the dragon's hoard seem
attractive? Minimally it divies out to 50,000 pieces of gold each, or
an average time value of 500 hours...

Example: a narrow crawling/scampering diameter only tunnel dug under
Mount Olympus to a system of caverns lieing under the mountain, many
hundreds of feet down and many thousands of feet inside the mountain.
It would arguably be a touch if not impossible nut for a dragon to
crack. Why would a player build it? If Mt Olympus is in the middle
of dragon territory, and if dragons are rapacious, then he can offer
the only guaranteed dragon-proof dwelling and storarge area in the
entire game... That would seem valuable to both the dragon inclined
and disinclined. Certainly lodging and storage could command
respectable rents.

A lot of this is dependant on the curiosity and awareness level of
dragons.
Choice #1: a field full of tasty cows.
Choice #2: A stone fortress of annoying humans who will poke me with
sharp stinging things. (DragonNote to self: Humans herd cows,
guaranteeing me foodstuff)
Which is it to be?

See the above example of players banding together to loot a dragon's
hoard.

>detailed that this is truly possible.
Accepted. Given some decent frequency of dragons of the calibre we
are discussing (and matchingly large sized dragon hoards) it would
seem an obvious equation however for players to assume and take.

Two instant thoughts come to mind:
Bubba causes a rock fall to cover the mouth of the cave with
sufficient depth that the dragon will take a long (enough) time to dig
thru.
Bubba imports rock to do the same thing, possibly via masonry
(dragon breath helps cure the masonry?).
>> Bubba has digs a tunnel to somewhere else far away.
>> Bubba gets the dragon's treasure and lives the fine life.
>*grin* Of course the dragon would let him get away with carrying a
>couple of tons of gold through a tunnel?
Is the dragon aware of the tunnel and Bubba's position within it?
How about a dragon's cave on one side of a mountain and a tunnel clear
thru the entire mountain to the other side? Takes too long to dig?
Dig it first from the other side until *almost* at the dragon's cave,
and then dig the final stretch from the other side.
