I want dragons to unintentionally guard some areas. Maybe they hunt the land or their nest is overlooking a main passage. Of course there should be alternative routes, bethesda said there would many underground passage ways. This is to compensate for land Skyrim does not have (Skyrim is supposed to be bigger than Cyrodill, even though it is smaller on the game map). Dragons will randomly patrol the land so you are never truly safe.what if you were walking then a dragon swoops down, kills a mammoth near you and begins eating?(unaware of your presence).

Difficulty Fighting Dragons
This is without any knowledge of how dragon shouts actually help (excluding summoning dragons for aid). levels 1 -10 instant death, 11-20 escape is possible, 21-30 with a zealous will, health potions and everything you got (arrows, magic, whatever) you can kill it.. upon returning to town a mudcrab kills you. 41-50 you make it back to town with a bitter sweet victory, as all your supplies were used and your armor is melted

There is a thread for what you want to see in Skyrim, please post there so the forum isn't so cluttered up with redundant topics.
