Converting original D&D and Mystara monsters

[BOZ]

that queue is getting long.

On a related issue, should we mention the benefits the summoned Silver Warriors get from faedorne's Augment Summoning ability in the Combat section?

sounds good!

posting what i have so far in homebrews...

I know! Seeing that this is the only thread that gets consistent requests other than the Overhaul and Epic threads, perhaps we need to break it up into smaller categories, such as OD&D, 2E Mystara, Mystara modules, etc.?

Speed should be 20 ft. (full plate), base 30 ft.

Speak Elven and Sylvan?

I'd suggest either wielding the longsword two-handed, granting Str and a half to damage, or give 'em a silver shield.

The three feats listed work for me.

Nat armor should be low...probably +1 to +3. If our target AC is 19, we can ditch it altogether.

i'll have to think about that... there is significant overlap between those categories.

See Invisibility (Su): This ability functions like the see invisibility spell (caster level Xth), except that it is continuously active.

that's going to seriously hamper its Jump check.

can it wield a longsword two-handed??

i'll skip the natural armor. the AC line said "2 (-2)" so maybe AC 18, and an extra +4 for being invisible based on what the old text says.

Indeed. But does it really need to Jump that much?

can it wield a longsword two-handed??

Yep. It just can't get 2-for-1 Power Attack.

Sounds good.

 

[BOZ]

how do i write up the longsword part then?

 

[Shade]

Just make the damage bonus +6, and you're good to go.

 

[BOZ]

so i don't need to note anywhere that it weilds a longsword two-handed?
