Hello!
What restrictions are there on what animals a beastmaster (from the Heroic Fantasy book) can take as henchmen? My understanding from Core ACKS is that henchmen have to be less in level than their master; Lairs & Encounters also says that monstrous henchmen must have fewer HD than their master has levels. However, the sample beastman starts at level 1 with a trained wolf henchman, even though wolves have 2+2 HD. I’ve seen some discussion of this (Animals as Henchmen), with the suggestion that the HD restriction can just be ignored.
Thanks!
