Creatures with 5-6 HitDice get to save against the spell. This is more credible for the Umber Hulks. They must roll 18-20 on a d20 to live, so they only got a 15% chance of success. This is accurate as far as I can observe in the game.
I have absolutely no idea about the Umber Hulks' HD in D&D or AD&D.

What i do know, however is that 99% of the BG2 Umber Hulks DO have less then 5 HitDice, and that these rare Umber Hulks that are immune to Cloudkill's SLAY effect are labled as 'regualr'. This leads me to believe that it is due to a bug, or just bad implementation in the game. [img]smile.gif[/img]
