These are a couple of questions I originally posted on the Champions of Lemuria forum but never got an answer. I am hoping that Simon might be able to answer in this forum, or maybe someone els can make a suggestion?
In the d20 Crimson Blades it doesn't look as though the People, Animals, Monsters & Undead section got a full conversion. There are no Base Attack mods listed. I know that the original CB rules uses Hit Dice to also determine the attack capabilities of the monsters but d20 doesn't work that way. Also, not all creatures have the same Hit Dice (an Enchantress has 2d4 for example).
Is there some simple way to determine the Base Attack Bonus for creatures in the Crimson Blades d20 rules? Maybe it's as simple as using the Experience Levels table on pg 10 - Hit Dice of d8 or larger use the Primary Save column and Hit Dice smaller than d8 use the Normal Save column? Number of Hit Dice determines the Level?
Also, some of the special attacks still use the Hit Dice to determine success. For example, the Sea Serpent says "If a sea serpent hits with at least two of its HD, it means it has swallowed its victim whole." How to determine success in the d20 version of the rules?
