I assume we can blow the horn once without sacrifices? Seems like it would be good to do that, then. It probably won't protect against the glacier-spears but might as well do it in case it helps with something.
It also strikes me that our sold crossbow still exists, and I keep thinking "realistically someone would probably ask the merchant if they can either lend it out or use it themselves" but in a mechanical context that feels like cheating - the point of getting two hundred crumbits for it is that we don't get to use it any more (and getting the help of a dragon protector out of that trade already makes it very favorable). Still, we've got three others so this isn't a huge factor. I just keep thinking about it.
Long range cannon attacks seem like a good idea. The only concern would be running out of cannonballs before they get close.
...okay, one inventory check later, I see we only have five cannonballs. That's not a lot. On the other hand, this is a cannon used by giants so they're probably pretty big? We should be able to afford one or two shots. I'd say two and then maybe a third depending on how many are left? After which crossbows should be fine.
Most interesting thing I saw in the inventory was the jar of acid, but I don't have particular thoughts on how to use it.
Trying to think of other options... I vaguely remember we have heat protection of some kind (which was relevant back in the desert) but I haven't gone back to check the details. It sure feels like "heat protection" and "dragon with fire breath" is a combination we could do something with.
Oh, one last thing. When we have a chance (probably after the battle) we should ask Bidabog if there's any way we can help with the Dragonwolf thing. That's one of the reasons I was in favor.
