  Wyrms of the North: Klauth, "Old Snarl"
The nasty brutality of this huge old red wyrm has become a watchword in the Sword Coast North, passing into common speech in such expressions as these: "Don't go near him early of mornings; he's apt to be a right Klauth until he's had a mug or two." Or, "Blood and bodies everywhere.
Klauth's response was to attack the Tower of Twilight, where the wyrm's massive bulk almost carried him through its defensive weblike fields of crisscrossing lightning bolts before their combined effects caused his muscles to spasm so uncontrollably that his heart faltered and he could no longer beat his wings to fly.
The four wyrms engaged in a spectacular aerial battle that raged across the skies of the Sword Coast North from the lceflow to the Fell Pass.

 Leviathans of Minaria   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
He who seemed chiefest of the wyrms accepted the offer taciturnly and gobbled down the calf in a rapid series of bites, which either betrayed his greed, or left as an unstated fact that the sacrifice was too small to reasonably share with the others of the string.
The wyrms had long dwelled in the East, Telemur learned, be had migrated west because a new nation of men, one very powerful and warlike, had extended their war-making to the wyrms, probably because bands of them had been so often and so lethally employed by human kings to resist the invader.
Wyrms are mercenary creature, so it seems -- and that is sometimes what one must be to get along in the world, at least until it becomes a far better place.

 Fire Wyrm
Fire wyrms typically breathe fire once every three combat actions, starting with its first action (though the designer may choose other triggers, such as a hero tampering with the wyrm’s treasure).
Perhaps the wyrm is guarding its nest, or perhaps it has been chained to an enormous boulder by a giant to act as a guard.
If a fire wyrm is under the command of Loki or another enemy of the heroes, they may need to make Deception rolls to try to convince the wyrm that they are actually allies.

 WYRMS OF THE FLANAESS:THE WYRM OF WOE
The Woeful Wyrm's territory is disputed by several other dragons, particularly to the south and west, but his stewardship of the largest freshwater lake in the Flanaess has not been seriously challenged for over a century.
While the wyrm has yet to track down all of his newly acquired leads, to date he has made little progress in his centuries-long search for Yagrax's Tome and, for his troubles, garnered only the enmity of those Knights of the Holy Shielding who still survive and are aware of his perfidy.
Even if the amethyst wyrm completes his nigh-impossible quest to recover the Codex of the Infinite Planes, it is far from certain that he will be able to break the fiendish ritual that binds and torments his spirit.

 Wyrms of the North: Zundaerazylym, the "Laughing Wyrm"
Most of these Soaks failed to do more than soothe her, but the Laughing Wyrm still believes a successful, sovereign healing bath for dragons is possible, if she can just hit upon the right formula for it.
The Dreaming Wyrm (as her agents, the Soft Claws, call her; just to confuse things, they also refer to her as "the Never Wyrm") is quick to say "Dreamers are dangerous," but she's become that most deadly force for change: a being who energetically tries to make her dreams become real.
The Laughing Wyrm suspects there are both Heralds and Harpers in the Soft Claws, but she worries more about infiltration by the Cult of the Dragon, the Arcane Brotherhood, or mages bent on gaining power over dragons.

 Wyrms of the North: Arauthator, "Old White Death"
He has obviously transcended the traditional spell-handling limitations of white dragons that keep their verbal-only adaptations to wizard spells of the first level -- but his personal limits are as yet unknown.
The blow was powerful enough to cause a rockfall that brought most of the top of that peak down on his rival, burying Eltagrathuuloor alive.
He employs a sending spell to call her to his lair for dalliance, giving her gems from his hoard after each mating but firmly escorting her out of his domain to rear any hatchlings that may result on her own.

 WYRMS OF THE FLANAESS:COPPERHEAD
Inspired by the "Wyrms of the North" articles by Ed Greenwood that have appeared of late in Dragon magazine and by the paucity of dragons that appear in published Greyhawk materials, I offer the first of what I hope will become a series of installments on the prominent dragons of the Flanaess.
As a result, that wyrm has never connected the infrequent intrusions of a "green wyrm" to her metallic neighbor to the south and west.
In the long-term, the Voorman of Perrenland is unlikely to tolerate the erratic wyrm's intermittent molestation of caravans of copper passing through the Velverdyva Pass, and eventually he will be forced to hire one or more adventuring companies to drive the unwelcome copper dragon from the region or slay the beast, if necessary.

 Tyranid Swarm Wyrms
If a Tyranid Swarm Wyrm comes into base to base contact with any enemy ship during the Tyranid player's movement phase it automatically detonates against the armour value that it impacted on (ie: if a swarm Wyrm comes into contact with a cruiser's port side, the damage would resolve on the port armour).
Because the Wyrms are so small, the opposing player has the option to fire at the Swarm Wyrms with your defence turrets if they wish.
Swarm Wyrms must be fielded in squadrons (swarms) of 6 to 18.

Sammaster had become fascinated, indeed obsessed, with Hemmontept's slave wyrms.*** He would spend hours speaking with them, learning from them as best he could, and with Hemmontept's death he saw an opportunity to be of use to them.
The wyrms quickly slaughtered everyone in the capital of Entharii, but that wasn't enough, not for all the decades they had been kept as slaves.
These wyrms called more wyrms, who called even more wyrms, until hundreds of the evil beasts descended upon the kingdom.

Fiends and aboms dont really kill wyrms, I found that out the hardway, the problem is the wyrms have a great deal of HP and damage so your aboms are going to die easily and fiends wont do much better.
I think you made the correct units to counter, although banshes with AMS would go a long way for some aboms, I think if you scout someone towering you should just go and expand immediately since his army wont be able to stop you.
With 30-35 gargs the wyrms and destros will be dead in like 5 sec and his remaining 6 fiends won't be able to do crap.
