Sounds like you've built enough archers/guard towers to hold off the inital dragons. After that, build a 
shipyard (I used dwarves to blast through the rocks :-)   ) anda transport. Put about 3 or 4 dwarven 
demo squads with a few decoy units, and then send the transport full speed. This way the battleships 
won't sink them. Then just run flat out and demolish the dragon roosters. I did this one by one, one on 
each side. I thought the aim in this scenario was to concentrate on the dragon roosters and not the 
portal. Coz once the dragons are gone there is NO resistance.

Guaranteed to work.
