    ...and just what makes a goblin or kobold a monster??

    I'll insert my somewhat "fantasy game racist" here now to derail the thread more.

    If the only stats for a creature are found in the Monster Manual (or other core book that's not the PHB). It's a monster.

    There were entries for humans too, TONS in 2nd ed. The Monster Manual is simply a name, it assuredly was not an exclusive resource of Monsters any more than the Fiend Folio contained only Fiends. *shrug*

    Somehow this question makes me think of the Cabbage-pult, Kernel-pult, and Melon-pult in Plants vs Zombies. :)

    Aww man, I hope this doesn't mean adventure y is going to be some crummy tower defense game. (And yes, I've spent way too many hours on PvsZ. Curse you, Zombies!!!)
    CRUMMY?!

    Ahem, I have been a big Tower Defense fan for a long time now. ;) Those damn flying bosses were hard to drop though.

    Semi back on topic... Any word on an NPC pergola?

    Not at all, it's Gazebo Defense game. The party starts inside the gazebo and must fend off waves of enemies. Most of them are regular archers, so Protection From Normal Missiles will work, but watch out for the boss with +3 arrows.
    Hmm... are there 'splitters' that make superfast babies your defensces always target last? Cuz everyone hates them. Also, do we have splash damage gazebos?

    Okay, now I want an IE tower defense game. So many tactical options.

    Why haven't anybody noticed the new portrait in the Gazebo screenshot? :) Not only final boss of the Adventure Y is revealed but also a new NPC: Persephone!

    But speaking seriously I want to pay attention to the fact @Cuv‌ put this Gazebo monster into BGEE, not BG2EE.

    In psychology they say that subconscious ideas reveal the truth. Maybe this screenshot additionally confirms that the Adventure Y is connected to BG1 and not ToB :)

    Although Phillip's screenshots told the same thing, this additional confirmation is helpful.
