Fighting as any size other than your natural one has combat penalties, right? That sucked for dwarf hellions.

From what I read, a dwarf is use to fighting giants, so I think there is little to no penalty when fighting against one.... I could be completely wrong, but I recall reading the first part. I'm sure human would make one of the best hellions as their stats are all pretty well rounded. What is the hellion's main stat by the way? I still haven't found which stat is associated with each class yet :(

Hellion's main stat is STR, if you're asking what humans/half-elves get a bonus to when rolling as a hellion.

The dwarves vs. giants thing is from DnD 3.5, not SK, heh. A giant will totally smack around a dwarf in melee combat in SK.

Dwarves can win vs Giants in straight melee. The dwarf is going to have to be a little smarter, a little better prepared, or a little more lucky, though. The disadvantage is not so big.

No, as in when you get enlarged to become a different size, there are penalties for that now iirc. Size small sucks for cleavage.

Human is better than dwarf or giant for almost every single class. The only exception I can think of is that Giants might make better scouts due to giant-sized ammo.
