If we are giving it three slams full attacking I would want to drop it to 1d6 damage for a Medium Zombie as per the SRD template (which is what Shade had originally).Three 1d6s is only one sixth more average damage than two 1d8s. (10.5/9), but three 1d8s is half more damage. The damage adjustment more or less balances out too, since the "single attack version" would have got 1.5 times Str - i.e. a Str 14-15 zombie would have three 1d6+2 (paired slams) vs two 1d8+3 (single slam), for 10% more damage (16.5/15).Attacks: A quick zombie gains a +1 attack bonus due to its haste ability  (see below). It retains all the natural weapons, manufactured weapon  attacks, and weapon proficiencies of the base creature. A quick zombie  gains two slam attacks it can use instead of the base creature's  attacks. Full Attacks: Due to its haste ability, a quick zombie can make an additional attack  when making a full attack. It always makes this additional attack with  its primary weapon. Damage: Natural and manufactured weapons deal damage normally. A slam  attack deals damage depending on the quick zombie's size. (Use the base  creature’s slam damage if it's better.) Fine 1Diminutive 1d2Tiny 1d3Small 1d4Medium 1d6 Large 1d8 Huge 2d6 Gargantuan 3d6Colossal 4d6 I changed the Gargantuan damage from the SRD's 2d8 since it broke standard progression.</blockquote>
