Cool. Didn't see this coming. It even contains the Gloranthan specific monsters. Very Nice.
On a side note It has the same error on the Tuskers as the printed book. The STR and SIZ averages shown are way out of line with the stat rolls listed, and the derived statistics (HP, DB) seem to be based on the 'bogus' averages.
EDIT: Here is what I mean:
A 32 STR is not even possible with 3d6+12, and SIZ is similarly messed up.

You know, for all the bitching about prices, Mongoose are rapidly redeeming themselves in my opinion, with the SRD's

Thanks for the download. It'll help me out a lot as I wrote RQOGL material.
One thing I am especially interested is monster design and tinkering, particularly in truly non-conventional areas such as SF creatures. I hope this will help once I get a chance to look over it.
what I could really use, if anyone can gte it for me, is a set of Word templates or data sets for automatic formatting and entry of a creature or character's startsitical data, calculation of monster avergaes up to -- well, infinity (so that if I wanted a race of creatures with a STR roll of 75D^+28, for example, I'd always have some spreadhsee I can plug the figure into to determine the average) and an auto-calculating spreadhseet for the various types of hit locations different creatures could have. One of the annoying things about not having that is that I have already had to ask one of my publishers to do the math for me, delaying my work substantially.

Just make a spreadsheet with an entry for every dice in col1, the added number in col2 and the sum in col3.
row D2: A1 B1 C1=1,5*A1 + B1
row D3: A2 B2 C2=2*A2 + B2
row D4: A3 B3 C3=2,5*A3 + B3
row D5: A4 B4 C4=3*A4 + B4
row D6: A5 B5 C5=3,5*A5 + B5
row D7: A6 B6 C6=4*A6 + B6
row D8: A7 B7 C7=4,5*A7 + B7
row D9: A8 B8 C8=5*A8 + B8
row D10: A9 B9 C9=5,5*A9 + B9
row D12: A10 B10 C10=6,5*A10 + B10
row D20: A11 B11C11=10,5*A11 + B11
Then you just have to enter the numbers in the right row.
