GCS ancestry draft: gcs/gargoyle.gct
Source template total: 117 points.
Library-rebuilt template total: 97 points.
CER was computed from parsed Typical Stats using the Dungeons On Automatic baseline CER path.
GCS cost adjudication for "Per+4": the source states 40 points and the native GCS library computes 20. Adopted the native library value of 20. Increased Perception is 5 per level (B16), so Per+4 is 20. The stated 40 prices at 10 per level.
CER recomputed from the reviewed Typical Stats through the canonical Dungeons on Automatic CER path: OR 8, PR 7, CER 15, threat tier minor.
Encounter metadata derived (gregarious): average number appearing 6, wandering weight 4. Encounter metadata derived for 0.2.0 from the reviewed threat tier and creature class (appearing: minor 4 / standard 2 / major 1 / severe 1, forced to 1 for solitary classes — including swarms, which are a single multi-body creature — and raised to 6 for gregarious minor creatures; wandering weight: minor 4 / standard 3 / major 2 / severe 1). The fan-conversion source states no appearing-in-numbers or wandering values, so these are derived, not source mechanics.
Lair, treasure, and grappling remain unpopulated in 0.2.0 by package policy: the authorized fan-conversion source states no lair, treasure, or grappling values, and review declines to invent them. See review/policy/0.2.0-empty-field-policy.md.
Review approved by automated-mechanical-review on 2026-07-26 (batch ee-2026-07-26-b1-gcs-costs); GCS fidelity check passed, DOA playability check passed.
Every exact-identity cost discrepancy on this record is adjudicated against the published GURPS cost table in review/reports/gcs-adjudication.md; the adopted value and its basis are recorded in conversionNotes.
Visual GCS verification of the .gct is not claimed by this decision; checks.gcsVisualPass is false.
