[QUOTE="Psion, post: 1269561, member: 172"] It just so happens I am running Isle of Dread right now. Sort of playing convert as I go. The first thing that caught my eye as needing converting was Anklosaurus and Allosaurus, which never made the conversion, though I do have 2 3.0 versions (one someone brewed up on the net, and one from Broncosaurus rex). I may just do them myself. Next thing is that Aranea have changed between their introduction and now. In the Savage Coast setting, they were given the ability to shapechange, but did not have it when introduced in X1. Also, as 3rd level sorcerers, they would no longer have the ability to cast the second level spells they were given in X1. I was thinking of taking away their shapeshift ability and giving them a level of sorcerer. Also, we need stats for phanatons. This site has them (as well as various other creatures from the expert set that never made it over to 3e that are on the random tables, like living statues), but I gotta say I'm not too fond of his Phanaton, particularly the "all phanatons are considered rangers" bit. That's just sloppy. If you want to make their favored class rangers, that'd be cool. [url]http://www.dnd.starflung.com/myst_3e.html[/url] [/QUOTE]
