Monster typos and clarifications

Post by CEBrown »

Page 152, goblins, last sentence of first paragraph: "DC 16 morale check"? Don't have a Morale stat - would this be a Will Save or something else?

Skeleton, page 156 result 76-80: What are the effects of a "Ray of Enfeeblement" in DCC? For that matter, what "result level" would a skeleton be assumed to have on the "magic missile" spell? Might be best just to spell out what they can do instead of referencing specific spells here!

Skeleton, p. 157, result 86-90: "The skeleton is formed from a higher level warriors..." should be "...higher level warrior." (singular, not plural).

Beyond this it all looks pretty great - love the two types of manticores and many types (including both the "true mythological" and the "D&D" Chimerae; wonder why the Basilisk wasn't handled this way as well though)

Not to nit-pick, but -- er, scratch that, this is totally nit-picking: A single skeleton could have the remaining leg bone of Dartagnion, the rib cage from Scaramoore the Great, the skull of Methorias, etc., etc., etc. I think it's creepier and more imposing that way, personally. Let's just take out the "a" and go with plural, please! :twisted:
