Apparently a minotaur PC is equivalent to a level 4 core race/core class PC. this is according to the bestiary - _IF_ i understood the rules correctly. Surely a minotaur is much harder than that? "Dnd Savage Spieces" (though riddled with unbalanced and unvetted monstrocities) gave an explanation on how "to tear-down and build it back up" for monstrous PCs which i understood and agreed with (on the whole). I think 4 levels for a minotaur (coming striaght of his CR) is a bit wrong. Please enlighten me....
