I have posted a few questions lately because I am trying to piece together a campaign and rules set for the campaign pulling from multiple fantasy settings.
After re-reading B/X and the BE part of BECMI, I think I am going to stick with DCC as a core (which draws heavily from B/X and honestly, though DCC is pretty lethal compared to 3.x and 4e it is not as lethal as B/X for small groups).
But there are some things I want to bring back into the mix from B/X because I am planning on this being small group play.
The first one is monster morale and reactions and an emphasis on retainers.
Monster reactions and retainer morale should work fine using the DCC Personality stat.
My question is, most of the monster right ups for DCC and some later editions of D&D lack a morale score.
Does anyone know if there was a formula for determining monster morale?
example: Natural creature = morale 7, or HD = x morale. I know most undead had morale 12 and fought to the finish but even that does not jive with intelligent undead that do seek self preservation.
I know that goblins and such are going to cut and run pretty quick and I could probably eyeball most of the creatures for morale but I wanted to find out if anyone knew of an actual formula out there?
Thank you again.

Monster Morale, was there a formula?
