[net.games.rogue] Monsters Strengths HELP

I am running AD_D version 5.2 DEW. (It is the rogue  that  allows
you  to  buy  your  own equipment, uses both cases of letters for
nasties and such).  I am writing an automaton to play the game. I
need  some help from more  experienced  roguists. For the version
mentioned above, how would you rate the  monsters  according   to
toughness   in   battle.   Since   differet monsters use the same
letter on different levels, you might be more scared of a 'b'  on
level 7 than on level 2.

What I want is a list (approxiamte, of course)  of  the  relative
toughness  of  each  monster on each level.  i.e. if you though A
was toughest followed by B,  C,  then  D   on  level   one,   but
that  D was tougher (because ot was a different monster) on level
3, send  me  data  like

        1: A B C D
        3: D A B C

        If there is  enough  interest,  I  will  post/discuss  my
techniques for programming my rogue robot
