Dragons: Pluck and Toss

We've all seen the dragon "kill move," when it picks up someone and tosses them dead to the ground...

 

What I'm suggesting is a dragon "attack move" that literally plucks a person and tosses them for heavy damage.

 

We get strafing runs where dragons breathe an element as they pass overhead, but wouldn't it be exciting if the dragon would snatch a person/creature and toss them for heavy damage? Wouldn't it be more of a challenge when facing a dragon, knowing that at any moment, they can pick you up and toss you aside, causing major damage? Or a tail swing can fling you to the side?

 

My point is that the Dragon's major strength is its size and ability to sweep or toss opponents out of the way, but this is not seen in-game, other than a "kill move." One swing of a dragon's tail should exhibit enough force to toss a dozen soldiers out of its way, not necessarily killing them, but at least knocking them senseless.

 

And how about a dragon that picks up your character, taking them up into the air, where you continue to swing your weapon, until he drops you to the ground? Yeah, you might die from this one...

Just thought about this again, and wondered if a "tail swipe" could be coupled with the equivalent of an "unrelenting force" shout that knocks most people down... Thus, the dragon sweeps his tail and it triggers the "unrelenting force" move to knock back anyone in its path...
