Couldn't agree more on it the standout. As to decline...ah, that happens in all things. It's got highs to come again in the future. not even far off. I'm a grognard that is not like the other grognards at all. And this issue matches any prior anyway. "The Ecology of the Leucrotta." was damned cool, got me using them more, ever after. "The Goristro Revealed," well, ought have gotten into MM2 but i loved it, and like daemons, the obvious con bonus to hit points per die has been a long gaping hole in AD&D monsters. They (almost) all lack staying power, and big G does not.  It didn't hurt that I immediately identified goristro with Sym, from the X-men comics, a mighty demon brute servant to Belasco from uncanny X-men issue 160 (1981) [ATTACH=full]409993[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]409994[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]409992[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
