Losing racial hit die

[Noxangelo]

I'm trying make an Anthropomorphic (SS p.214) Ankylosaurus (MM p.70) but it loses 2/3 of its RHD in the process and I'm pretty sure it shouldn't get to keep its +14 fort.

So could someone give me the idiots guide to reducing RHD?

Hit Die are just levels in a Racial Class. All of a type (like animal) get the same BAB and Saving throws. Animals (like dinos) get 3/4 BAB (same as cleric) and have good Fort and Reflex saves. So compared the Hit Die amount your creature has at the end, with the same level of a class that has the same good saves.

here is the SRD link on animal HD properties: https://www.d20srd.org/srd/typesSubtypes.htm#animalType

A 3HD Monstrous Humanoid has a BAB of +3, Fort +1, Ref +3 and Will +3.
