[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 4422152, member: 326"] Hey dante mate! :) By WAY too low you mean by a few points, correct? The official dragons don't match my Str/Size categories anyway! So whats the big deal. Of course it should, now whats to stop a 3HD Medium-sized Dragon from having a base 18 strength? So give them higher starting scores. You are converting an existing dragon that doesn't follow my parameters, then when you apply my advancement rules to it wondering why it doesn't advance properly. Do you see the flaw in your thinking. Of course they don't. But they probably should. But its just a million times too much work to rework the core dragons. You think wrong. What this does is give utterly ridiculous leaps of strength and to a lesser extent constitution. It creates far more discrepancies than it covers. The official dragons ALREADY contradict the size rules. 5 HD TINY Copper Dragons - for goodness sake. 8 HD MEDIUM Gold Dragons. The only thing that needs fixed are the dragon sizes. eg. An 8 HD Gold Dragon is a Huge creature. That means a starting strength score of 31-40 (more likely 31). Which means when we advance it by my recommended 22 points at Great Wyrm we would get Str 53.
