And if I were to pick CR8 dire tiger as a base animal, two more CR of templates slapped onto it won't increase my CR above 12?
Nope, apparently I can't read, and I should maximize a stat only on one side, as Animal Lord gives me better of two.
And I can't find anything better than Advanced on animal, considering size limits of Animal Lord and that I don't want any more CR on the humanoid side.
