[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 6650826, member: 57383"] We don't need to specify particular classes in the Org if we don't want to. There are plenty of monsters which just have "2nd-5th level leader" or the like, and I'd prefer that approach with the Goatling. While [I]Goatmen of Kovaja[/I] says they are primarily fighters, it says that about ALL the Goatkin "races". For our 3E conversion we don't have to treat that as meaning Fighter is their favoured class, it might just indicates that most of them are fighters or warriors, just like most combat-capable elves or gnolls are warriors. Besides, that would mean all the Goatkin have the same favoured class, which seems a bit unimaginative and doesn't fit with how different the various Goatkin are from each other. I think it makes more sense to use one of their "optional" classes as a favoured class. Wizard seems most appropriate, since [I]Goatmen of Kovaja[/I] says "If using AD&D rules, they they may be multiclassed Fighter/Magic-User of Fighter/Cleric"). It fits all the spell casting abilities they have. When we get to other Goatkin I am thinking Druid for the Ovinaur and Bard for the Caprine. [/QUOTE]
