MonsterCalc must be able to calculate CR's for any possible kind of monster that can be built from the monster building rules in the Monster Manual. These CR's must fully implement the IH Revised CR
rules. Testing will involve running MonsterCalc against monsters in the Monster Manual and verifying that the derived CR's match those in the IH Revised CR Rules, Appendix One. When the correct CR's are
generated for every monster in the MM, I can move on the milestone 2.

MonsterCalc will eventually be able to generate monster stat-blocks WotC-style. This will involve taking the statistics entered to interpolating the CR and calculating derived stats (saves, attacks, damage,
DC's etc.) from them. This stat-block should be in human-readable format. The goal here (though not as rigid as the first milestone) is that MonsterCalc will generate stats-blocks identicle to those in
the SRD if those monsters are stated out in MonsterCalc.

Saving/loading of monsters will be needed. A big plus would be importing/exporting in PCGen format, so generated monsters are immediately useable.

Probably along the way, I'm going to have to address design issues. Right now MonsterCalc is very ugly and utterly unuseable. It will have to adopt a nicer UI if it's going to be useful.
