:::::Well Tarkis, LA is really only half the story with race power. Sure, a vast majority of races are just LA races with no HD. While, as the example, [[Deathly Asutas (3.5e Race)|deathly asutas]] use a racial progression to achieve its full racial power, it doesn't have LA, so listing it as LA +6 is grossly inaccurate. Listing it as LA 0 is closer to fair, as it can be used as an LA 0 race with the variant, but then, I think for the time being, I'm the only one venturing into racial progression territory for races (since there are problems inherent with its design philosophy). Anyways, before I get too distracted, I suppose I should mention that there are races that have both LA and racial HD (and don't use racial HD progressions). [[Uberich (3.5e Race)|Uberich]] have 4 racial HD and LA 1, being ECL 5. Not listing both ECL and LA is just going to be troublesome for people doing searches. Yeah, in the past, I've gotten a lot of funny remarks from people about the [[Deathly Asutas (3.5e Race)|deathly asutas]], mostly along the lines of "there is ''no'' way this has no LA" and "are you out of your mind?" before I point out the ECL when people do searches by LA. Now I've lost my train of thought. Did any of that make sense? --[[User:Ganteka Future|Ganteka Future]] 18:27, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
::::::It makes sense I guess... it just hurts my brain. I had forgotten about (or actively ignored) [[SRD:Improving_Creatures#Level_Adjustment_and_Effective_Character_Level|the stupid rule ]] where racial hit dice count the same as class levels for determining minimum xp levels. So yeah, you need account for ECL and LA when making a character for a game. We should probably keep the ECL in the table and go through and the races to make sure that the ECLs for everything are accurate. But not now, I need to go have a cry about this rule first. - [[User:Tarkisflux|TarkisFlux]] 23:29, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
