[QUOTE="Echohawk, post: 4404179, member: 9849"] I suspect you overlooked page 86... OGRE SLUG Climate/Terrain: Any/Subterranean and wet Frequency: Uncommon Organization: Tribal Activity Cycle: Any Diet: Carnivore Intelligence: Average (8-10) Treasure: B, S (in lair only) Alignment: Chaotic Evil No. Appearing: 2-8 Armor Class: 4/8 Movement: 6 Hit Dice: 8+4 THAC0: 13 No. of Attacks: 2 or 1 with weapon Damage/Attack: 1-12 or by weapon type (+6 with strength) Special Attacks: Spits Acid Special Defenses: 1/2 Damage from Blunt Weapons Magic Resistance: Nil Size: L (8' tall, 15' long) Morale: Steady (11-12) Exp. Point Value: 2000 The appearance of ogre slugs is unmistakable: they have the upper torso, arms, and head of an ogre but the lower body of a large slug. Their coloring is usually swampy, grey-green skin on the upper body area, fading into a deep, blackish green for the lower slug portion. Ogre slugs are just as mean and ugly (if not uglier) than their full bodied cousins. Combat: An ogre slug's attack is delivered with its powerful arms. Twice each round the beast can strike with its huge fists for 1-12 points of damage. Its main attack, however, is that of its corrosive acidic saliva. An ogre slug may opt to spit acid once per round instead of attacking with its fists. The spittle may be flung up to 20 yards away and require the ogre slug to make an attack roll. The targets AC is 10 regardless of armor type. Dexterity and any magical bonuses apply. The acid eats its way through any equipment and armor (saving throw vs. acid) and causes 3-24 points of damage, save vs. breath weapon for 1/2 damage. Note that other ogre slugs are immune to this acid spittle. Since they are part slug, they inherit a thick, rubbery hide that gives them partial immunity to blunt weapons. The ogre slug suffers only 1/2 damage caused by blunt weapons or spells that cause crushing or impact damage. Edged and piercing weapons as well as most other spells cause normal damage to an ogre slug. Although blunt weapons do limited damage, the slug portion has an AC of 8. A raiding group of 6 or more will also include a leader. This leader will have 10 hit dice and have a strength bonus of +8 when attacking with a weapon.
