Dragons, giant insects and such obviously operate under different rules / scale / physical law that the ordinary fauna of Glorantha (or indeed any magical world).

There is still a wast difference in playability between a dragon 20m or 20 miles long. Remember that in White Bear & Red Moon, and in Dragon Pass armies can fight true dragons.
