[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 7259362, member: 83242"] Thank you for catching those. I already fixed the silver's CR and thought I had fixed those alignment issues. I will get them corrected for the next PDF update. Regarding the ancient - wyrm - great wyrm CRs: Currently I don't plan on changing it. The reason for the CRs that we chose is that the CR jump between age groups in the MM is 7 (adult black is CR14 - ancient is CR21). However, this is a jump of 2 age groups (adult - [I]elder[/I] - ancient). So, the great wyrm is a jump of 7 and this sets the cap (ancient red CR 24 to great wyrm red CR 31). As a result the wyrm's are either a jump of CR 4 or CR 3 and we chose CR 4. So the great wyrms will only be jump of CR 3. Though the CR's will overlap, a great wyrm white will have abilities and traits that a wyrm red or blue will not. CR is not the be all to end all of the expression of what a monster can do. I don't really want to push the dragon CRs too high, but this current approach is not set in stone. I can be swayed. [/QUOTE]
