[QUOTE="demiurge1138, post: 4570783, member: 7451"] Wow. You've obviously put a lot of effort into this conversion. But I've noticed a lot has been left blank--the before combat and morale sections of the tactical information jump out, as do the spells known of the higher level and advanced dragons. I know that leaving the spell list blank lets the DM pick his own, but for instant utility, having a spell list established is much more helpful. Was this omission intentional, or did you just run out of time and energy to add spell lists to already huge stat-blocks? As for before combat, there's not much the little ones can do other than remain alert, but the before combat section can help give some idea as to their tactics and mindset. Do they go looking for trouble, or do they only fight if attacked? Do they approach from the ground or from the air? For the older dragons, before combat information can include their breakfast spells (hr/level buffs like mage armor) and what spells they cast on themselves if expecting a fight. Morale is pretty simple--do amber dragons fight to the death? Do they retreat tactically? Are they cowardly and retreat when down to only half hps? That sort of thing. [/QUOTE]
