TheSage@Wizards.com says to treat HD as 1 for everything but hit points, so that's what I'll go with. Of course, I don't know who was answering as "the Sage", but I'll just have to take his/her word for it.

Make sure it's all done in CNN-style logos.

True, the Muslims started the first "crusade", so they have no room to complain. They gave Christians the idea. It was not a Christian concept to convert by swordpoint, which is why they eventually grew out of it.

But "Other" would have made a funnier name.

Thanks for that. Skip W. is probably the man for final authority. I'll see if I can find his ear, too. Because of the "round down" rule, if it applies, all the fractional HD will yield the same result for BAB, so 1/16 or 1/2 won't matter as far as programming goes.

Hey! It was geocities and I didn't get assaulted by pop-ups!

Thanks for the answer, but my opinion or your opinion isn't really enough. I don't intend to create any partial HD creatures with fighter BAB, but I am programming a monster maker that will do this, so I need to know the official rule.

Barbarian is a good choice, too. I'll add that to the list of acceptable class advancements. ECL? I have no idea how much being Huge would add. :)

I suppose if the dragon hadn't beaten it so badly in the movie I would have made it tougher. ;) I'll probably add a couple of warrior levels to it in play.

His goal is to bring just wrath, and nothing more. "Thanks for inviting me to the potluck. I hope it's okay I just brought wrath. It's the only recipe I know."

Your Hide base is -6 and Listen +0. I'd give 7 ranks to Hide and 3 to Listen. Skills: Hide +1, Listen +3

Seventh Voyage of Sinbad

The saves I came up with are: Saves: Fort +21, Ref +14, Will +8

My javascript CR calculator came up with Challenge Rating: 14 [13 to 17 estimated] Using the Dragon magazine method usually produces inflated CRs once you get above CR 7, so my calculator curves them down, plus uses high and low formulas to come up with a range of possibilities which hopefully...

Okay, I made these changes: 1) Dropped Earth subtype, since it didn't change anything. 2) Made Gore a secondary attack, which not only dropped BAB, but also damage bonus. I left the base damage at 2d6, though, which is the standard gore damage for Huge giants. 3) Added AC averaging as an option.

D- I would say called shots, or else assume that the legs would be targeted if the PCs were hand-to-hand on the ground, upper torso if firing missles or striking from an elevated level. I wouldn't average the AC unless you wanted to simplify the encounter. Cyclopes are descended from Vulcan's...

I would like to create a formula for this. Can anyone give me a source for object size classifications and damages when used as weapons? Or at least the damage bases for the boulders hurled by giants? Or even just suggestions? If nothing exists, I'll make the formula/chart and post it here.

I did a version of the Chupacabra as a very minor monster. I don't recall any tales of ol' Chupie being harmful to much except goats and house pets. Chup
