The advantage of the dragon would be flight and breath weapon, the chariot would be impact hits and Banner of Nagarythe. And the chariot would be a much better model.
I beg to differ, I think that the chariot should be a little cheaper in points than the dragon and to use up one less hero slot (Darkadon has it spot on: a Lord and 2 Heros in the chariot and a Lord and 3 when on the Dragon-as per normal dragon rules) so that malekith becomes a more flexiable option in armies - as the lord and 2 heroes it allows the introduction of an extra character - I don't like or enjoy less flexiable options such as having both options equally priced.
I love the idea of the massive cold ones - though points wise I wonder how much theyd be in relation to a black dragon? I see Seraphon as being a 370pt upgrade and the chariot being around 280 points - with crazy cold ones and banner included...
Just as another thought, but surely Malekith wouldnt steer the chariot, so how many black guard would crew the thing? (its gotta be the black guard manning that juggernaut - come on! )
