First off, I'm familiar with both of these from D&D, but this last line in the Tarrasque description sounds a little... off.

Note: Creatures with a minus THAC0 can only be hit on a 1.

I think they're refering to HIS THACO being so low, and I think they mean "Can only MISS on a roll of 1." Otherwise, that doesn't make sense at all... cause his THACO wouldn't affect his own ability to be hit, that's what his AC is for. I don't think that line of text appears in the monster manual at all.
