[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 6881300, member: 57383"] I still prefer the "All standard types of guardian juggernaut possess the following special attacks" approach, since we've been including the standard base juggernaut abilities in all the other template entries such as HD, AC and so forth. If we did go for that approach, I'd prefer to at least mention what special attacks the base models offered. Something along these lines: [B]Special Attacks[/B] A guardian juggernaut retains all the special attacks of the base creature plus all the special attacks of the base construct. Saves have a DC of 10 + 1/2 juggernaut's HD + juggernaut's Cha modifier unless noted otherwise. All standard types of guardian juggernaut possess the Stomp and Sweep special attacks, with wicker juggernauts gaining the additional special attacks of fiery aura and [I]spell use[/I] (see the individual Base Juggernaut entries for details). My thinking was that a "Guardian Juggernaut" version of, say, an iron golem was a permanent construct that had an additional construction cost to represent the crafting of spiritual equipment slots plus the additional enchantments making it suitable for becoming a juggernaut. It wasn't simply a matter of casting a spell on a standard construct. [/QUOTE]
