[QUOTE="BOZ, post: 2662993, member: 1241"] moving on... this one should be more of a challenge. ;) #71 the original text suggests an ECL of 3. does LA +2 sound right?

Small Humanoid (Goblinoid) Hit Dice: Id8(4hp) Initiative: +1 (Dex) Speed: 30 ft. AC: 14 ( + 1 size, +lDex, +2studded leather) Attacks: Morningstar+ 1 melee; or javelin +3 ranged Damage: Morningstar Id8’l; or javelin Id6-1 Face/Reach: 5 ft. by 5 ft./5 ft.
