[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 6845381, member: 83242"] CapnZapp, 1) The only introduction is OP really. There has been some discussion on whether or not to continue to increase proficiency above 30, but not on the qualities of WotC epic monsters. Personally, my biggest issue with them is that they don't hit hard enough. That was the main reason I started this thread and to, hopefully, provide more tactically interesting epic monsters. 2) I have everything in PDF and Word doc. I plan to eventually post the PDF files, but I was waiting for the final edits (these are drafts) and revisions. However, many people of asked for PDFs so I think I will be adding those soon (just can't update them as frequently). If you want something specific, just PM me your email address and I can send it to you. If you can wait a little bit I will probably post PDF files next weekend (I've got a deadline this weekend). 3) No. I made the demon lords and princes because I like them to be more god-like in power (like 4e) than the official 5e versions in conjunction with I fell the WotC monsters are too soft. For most groups I think these are to strong for OotA, but I know you play the optimization game, so you might be able to use the CR28 and below demon lords. I didn't really make these for OotA, so if you want to use them for that you will unfortunately have to make some modifications based on your group. If I remember correctly, the final battle included some significant nerfs of the demon lords already. If you apply the same concept to these demon lords/princes they might work. [/QUOTE]
