It does seem to make sense to give numbers for each variety, though. So how many?
Are we going back to hawks / dire hawks / legendary eagles then?
I suggested "the Hawk Lord can summon 10d6 hawks, 3d6 dire hawks or giant eagles*, or 2d6 legendary eagles", and I'm considering dropping the Giant Eagles.
That's fine, but we're back to "what in the SRD can we use to fill in for those without access to legendary eagles"?
Well Dire Hawks aren't in the SRD either.
Do you have anything against the "use Giant Eagles" alternative I suggested previously?
I do not. I'm just worried about the top tier.
Why did we drop the paragon hawks? Just the low number of hp? They seem like a logical fit.
Ah, right.
Maybe it's too much of a stretch, but rocs could work for the legendary eagle substitute.
