How Would the CR change by advancing the creature?
Like your example of the vrock What would the new CR be for a 15HD Vrock?

It's +1 per 2 HD of outsider, +1 more for the size increase, so new CR is 12.5, prob. rounded down to 12.

I am not sure if the +1 CR applies if the creature was already Large or larger since it is "Size increased to Large or larger +1 to CR". But I agree either include that increase and round down or leave it out and round up either way you would get CR 12.

Thanks, I figured I was a couple points off here and there. :) Its working out now.
 




Standard vrock has "Armor Class: 22 (–1 size, +2 Dex, +11 natural)"

advancing it to 15 HD increases its size from Large to Huge, so its natural AC goes up +3, Dex goes down -2, and it gets an additional -1 penalty to AC from its increased size. So, here ya go:

AC 23 (-2 size, +1 Dex, +14 natural)
