OK. Gotcha. Extremely curious to know where to find this table!

eah, I’d also go for the spittle being a missile discharge. In which case it wouldn’t be a “breath weapon” (well, dammit, it might, as @Celebrim suggests with his notion of a breath weapon being an alternative to a bite attack). If it isn’t, I’d say its effect would start counting, as it...

Agreed. There’s a lot going on in Appendix E, and virtually nothing of it makes any sense. In fact, there’s only about two dozen monsters in it with an xp value that corresponds to the “rules” laid out in the EXPERIENCE POINTS VALUE FOR MONSTERS table on p. 85—and the vast majority of these are...

Trying to avoid the “splitting” effects territory—and failing miserably Breath weapon or major breath weapon? DMG, p. 227: “Breath Weapon — Special attack of certain creatures like dragons, chimerae, etc. causing any of several different effects. For saving throw purposes the “Breath Weapon”...

Duergar & Daemons Part XVII: Shrine of the Duergar In which the DM informs our noble heroes that the rock troll has started regenerating and that they are actually seeing it happening in font of their very eyes. Night 154, continued: “I say, chaps,” Navarre says in some consternation, pointing...

Duergar & Daemons Part XVI: Tunnels & Trolls In what starts as a session with little action and much talk and ends as one, the DM opens the proceedings by informing our noble heroes that a ledge runs around the outside of the dragon cave – the room at the top of the tower of Dragon Point; that...

And then, of course, there is the criminally overlooked Birthright setting, with an entire rule book on naval battles. [Wikipedia]

Yup. Something like that. Still, I was running a completely randomly rolled 1E dungeon a while ago, and I had the xp for all encounters neatly worked out--as far as possible (had some time because of the COVID thing). Just crossed out what ended up dead and then added up all of their xp values...
