Monster bth?
Erm I can't seem to find the monster attack bonuses anywhere. I had a look in the castle keepers guide and monsters and treasure but I am kind of stuck. Can a kind soul help me out or am I just blind.
Re: Monster bth?
Monster BtH is equal to its hit dice. Read page 4 again, under the Hit Dice entry, and note that dragons only add half their HD as a BtH, as noted in the dragon entry on page 20.

I'm guessing it is to get the Dragons hit points up but without inflating its attack bonus to crazy levels.Lobo316 wrote:Which I still don't really get, but I'll roll with itTraveller wrote:Monster BtH is equal to its hit dice.

Yes, that is basically it. They are tougher than their melee skills would indicate.Zardnaar wrote:I'm guessing it is to get the Dragons hit points up but without inflating its attack bonus to crazy levels.Lobo316 wrote:Which I still don't really get, but I'll roll with itTraveller wrote:Monster BtH is equal to its hit dice.

Yea, I had one of my players point that out to me as well, and yes, I can roll with it.Arduin wrote:Yes, that is basically it.
