If you have been following along on my youtube channel (Will's StormtheCastle Youtube Channel) You know that I have been trying to slay a dragon without much luck. I have built and fired the DragonSlayer 1 which was a bazooka. And then I moved on to the DragonSlayer 2 which was a double barrel bazooka. Then I moved on to the DragonSlayer 3 which was an enormous seven foot long bazooka. None of these worked against the dragon.

It got me to thinking that maybe it was because all of these are bazookas and to kill a mythical creature like a dragon you need a mythical weapon like a sword! Thus we have the DragonSlayer 4. It is a rocket sword.

The theory is that in close combat I can battle the dragon with the sword and when the dragon sees that it is near defeat it will fly off. I can then shoot off the rocket blade and bring it down in mid flight.
