[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 7795652, member: 57383"] Yes, I almost forgot about this one too. Well it's not an SRD Rhino advanced to Huge size but it's own creature, so I'd rather not use the bumped-up stats. I'd be happy to make the Strength 30 like a standard elephant since the largest Megacerops were roughly elephant-sized. Might even be willing to tweak it to Str 32 if you want to make them mightier for some reason. Dexterity I'd rather keep to 10 like the SRD Rhino & Elephant. Constitution I'd be happy having at 23 - the next rung up from a 3E Rhino's 21. It's only one source that misidentifies them as a "Dinosaur", the rest properly recognize it as a Prehistoric Pleistocene Mammal. Intelligence 2 would be my preference. I am preferring 2d8 since it matches the original's damage and the SRD Elephant's gore attack. The original is AC 5 in BECMI or AC 6 in AD&D. That's the same as a "Normal Elephant" in those editions so I'd be disinclined to give it a natural armor very far from the SRD Elephant's +7. Indeed, I was expecting to just give it +7 NA. [/QUOTE]
