[QUOTE="Connorsrpg, post: 1813438, member: 19265"] I am not the rules lawyer type either, but I too reckon WoTC, who run this whole thing should get it right..more often. One or two here and there for AC and Base ATT no problem? What? Try telling that to any palyer. Why bother with a masterwork sword? These errors are not acceptable. Yeah, I love the monsters and I will still enjoy the game, but I still expect WoTC to get these right...I mean geez, do you think they would accept your submission with these kinds of errors. Dragon and Dungeon don't. read their guidelines. Right down to getting formatting right. Spells MUST be in itallics, orcs speak orc NOT ORCISH, let alone game stats as important as AC and att ratings? Ah that is my stance. Now I would like to give a call out to John Cooper. I know in other threads he says he doesn't check skill mods, and I don't with every creature either, BUT I also like to have variants on common creatures. Take ponies, mules, horses etc Animals with fairly small skill calcualtions. I love to make breeds that have different skill alotments. So it was much to my horror when I checked what they did have and found that they did not add up? I may have missed something...I may be wrong, but could someone (John Cooper :)) check these for me? I can accept being wrong - I just want to know where...:) I don't have books with me, but I guess i will have to look at these again myself and post exact error. Common animals, used in many sessions (not one fight) with stat probs just doesn't sit well with me. Over many sessions these things do make a difference...and again I ask you as players, would you stand for your DM not worrying about each of your plusses (especially to rolls they make)???
