12-24-07, 02:39 AM ...but I've checked all 9 pages of this forum, the sticky, and the CO boards, so here I go: what is the lowest-LA Large size race available? Also, it might be a good idea to put this info into the sticky, cuz I know it gets asked often enough.

Thanks to any who reply,

Don't propagate that broken thing! IT'S EVIL

RoD is newer, so I think it takes precedence.

Not if you only go by the changes in the issue, and do not include the changes for increasing in size in the MM.

12-24-07, 07:37 PM It's somewhere on this board, I created a thread where home-brewed templates could be posted. I know it's not Raw or CORE, but my Giant-Blooded Template might be everything you're looking for....

12-24-07, 07:48 PM It's not that broken, even if you do give them the stats for the size bump. (Which by RAW you don't.) It's certainly good, but it isn't nearly as important past mid levels.

Really? This makes things a lot easier for me. Where in the core/raw does it say you wouldn't give them the benefits for the size bump?

Why would you? It's built into the template/race's ability modifiers.

12-25-07, 03:45 PM In the back of the MM under the advancing monsters section if you read the entry on advancing with templates it states what bumbs you get from a size increase due to a template, ability scores are not on the list. (Even though I wish they were.)

Jax: Because it increases your size, and says you get the bumbs from increasing in size.

Oh, it's a template. This thread asked for races, not templates, and no one stated that the Half-Minotaur was a template, so I assumed it was a race.

Since your actual question has been answered...

There's 116 pages in this forum. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the page, and there you'll see the display options. The drop down box that says "from the" and lists how far back to display.

I set mine to default to display "from the beginning". :tiphat:
