2e AD&D Interesting Monsters - The List Will Grow

 

BTW, lotsa cool artists from 2e. Listed here: https://regalgoblins.fandom.com/wiki/2nd_Edition_Monstrous_Manual_Art

I like the thinner hafts on these polearm type weapons... a hair too thin, but better than the giant bulky cartoonish things too many people stick in there. And I do like the grit on these 3 monsters.
