[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 8562754, member: 83242"] Good morning! I agree with all of the above and I do the same things. Not necessarily. I have designed monsters, and so has WotC, with LA that don't follow that format. Again, it is a monster design issue, not an LA issue. And that is still a meta viewpoint. For instance, any weapon using monster, with or without LA, has attacks based on weapon type & STR/DEX mod. That holds true whether they have LA or not. Like I said in my response to your other post, you don't get it and I will stop fighting for it. I believe honesty/clarity is the best, but you don't even see how your being dishonest/unclear, so I will drop it. Ultimately it is just a silly game. No need for me to get so worked up. More interesting design, more thematically appropriate abilities for the monster, more fun. There are lots of reasons to make some different. Good luck! Well, yes that is what I am doing. Similar to the I in BECMI, PCs are basically starting a new game with my rules. I am not pretending to be 5e anymore. However, I will always believe it is OK to stat monsters that the PCs have 0% chance of defeating. I do it because it is interesting to me, an others, not because it is something a PC must be able to kill. Sounds good. Just wanted to clarify that was talking about solo fight (PCs vs demon) with a demon prince not on its home plane. (y) [/QUOTE]
