Hi all,

I'm looking for a way to convert 3.5 monsters stats to the 2nd ed.

I know nothing about 3.5 rules!

When 3E came out, WotC put out a Conversion Manual, for converting 2E characters to 3E characters. It doesn't seem to be on their website any more, but if you could find a copy of that, it would be a good starting point, I think.

I'd say it's going to be really tough without learning the basic 3.5 rules and some of its monster rules first.

Are you looking to only convert monsters that don't appear in the Monstrous Compendiums or are you trying to convert other stuff too?

I'm trying to convert monsters from Adventures so I'm looking for an easy way to do so (ex : HD, hp, MV...) I'm sure there are parallels and scales easily clear between the 2 systems.

Here's the book Wooly was talking about (hosted by Chris Perkins of all people!):
