This is not a trick question.
By the core rules, an ogre mage has a BAB of +3. Adding 10 Fighter levels would give a BAB of +13.
However, using the rules in Savage Species, an ogre mage is a level 12 character. After adding 8 levels of Fighter, he would be a level 20 character. His next two levels of fighter would only give him a +1 epic attack bonus since he is now an Epic level character. Final tally: effective BAB of +12.
How would you deal with this apparent discrepancy? Would you apply different rules to PC and NPC ogre magi?
Thoughts?
