Dramatic SFB: Age of PFs Orders

[Majead Farsi]

Guys I have a few questions regarding Space Dragons as I could not find any
information on it! As they are living creatures with a survival instinct:
At what point will a space dragon opt to disengage instead of staying and
possibly dying?
Can a Dragon opt to fire its eye weapon at plasma torpedoes? (to reduce the
damage it takes!)
Does the dragon's close defence system affect plasma's ?
If there are several dragons in an encounter do they operate in a
coordinated manner such as using their eye weapons on the same target (Ship
, plasma etc)?
