When HD are added to adventuring creatures, the LGCS says (p 40) that 1 skill point is gained per HD of advancement. It goes on to say that this is due to low int. However, for some cases this seriously shortchanges the creature in Skill Points. A relatively common example would be with the use of the feat Improved Familier for a Psuedo Dragon--this should result in 6 skill points per HD:

Int 10 (the base Int for a Psuedo Dragon)
Type Dragon (Imp Familiar doesn't change the creature type if not an animal)
and
Dragons get 6 skill points per HD.

So the section should be expanded to say something like: "the normal rules for getting skill points is used. For most adventuring creatures this is 1 skill point per HD"

Wrong forum for this, dude. There's an entire separate forum now for LG Rules Discussion (in other words, the LGCS Draft Discussion at this time).
