Thread Title : Mystara Monster Conversion Question

It seems that I have reached an interesting point with the conversions and I'd thought I'd get some feedback from you guys. 

As it stands, most of the OD&D monsters have been converted or will be shortly.  There are a couple of directions I could take:

1. Finish converting the Savage Coast monsters.  This will likely also include creating the Inheritor prestige class, and completely converting all of the legacies.

2. Begin converting the Exalted creatures from WOTI and the Gold Box set.  There may be some mechanics development for the Power Point System necessary, but hopefully not to much.

3. Begin converting the Creature Crucible Line.  This would require racial write-ups as well as monster entries.  Savage Species would be used as needed, but even current 3.5E creatures would get a level progression as well as racial paragon levels.

4. Convert the old Blackmoor supplement creatures.

Anyway, what do you guys think?

This one gets my vote.

Let's go for three different answers! :) I'd like to see these two in the order presented.

I'm with Ray on this - I would like to see the Savage Coast completed but it is intriguing to see how you convert the Exalted creatures (especially if you go down the road of Immortals as player characters).

4. Convert the old Blackmoor supplement creatures.



What else could I vote for? :)

Regardless of what direction you take, all of the options are things I would love to see though. :)

Thanks again for the amazing work you are doing!

So the consensus is there is no consensus...

Looks like the Savage Coast and WotI critters have a bit more support.  Any other thoughts from anyone?
