So Thieves, unless I am missing it, aren't given an explanation of their attack rolls under the alternate combat system, though they do have Chainmail "fighting capability". Was this explained anywhere later? Do people just use the matrix from AD&D?
LIkewise the blackmoor assassin and monk don't have the chainmail stats, but they arent given anything else either. As a cleric subclass, presumably the monk fights as a cleric?
How do you guys handle them?

Greyhawk explains thieves in the alternate combat system under that section: Treat Thieves as Clerics for purposes of advance in steps — four levels/group (1-4, 5-8, 9-12, etc.). With regard to saving throws treat Thieves as Magic-Users. Per Blackmoor, monks are clerics and assassins are thieves - as subclasses they should follow the same logic, just as paladins are for all intents and purposes fighters. So all of them use the cleric progression in the Alternate Combat System, and the thief or cleric progression as appropriate using fighting ranks.

aha. I guess I did indeed just overlook it then. Thanks!
