:The list is divided into four sections: Vanilla monsters that can appear from the Summon Nasties spell, monsters in Vanilla with M2_NASTY set, SLASH'EM monsters that can also appear from Summon Nasties, and SLASH'EM monsters that have M2_NASTY. Note that the two lists are actually unrelated; ogre kings, for example, do NOT have M2_NASTY. The order of the Summon Nasties monsters matches that of the array in Wizard.c (line 26). As far as I can tell the order has no effect whatsoever on what gets generated, so it's probably just in that order so it matches Wizard.c. -- [[User:Qazmlpok|Qazmlpok]] 12:11, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
