[you turn the corner and see a line-eater bug!]

I hear so much about the `Balrog', I even have a Balrog miniature
made by Ral-Partha.  However, I have been unable to find any
reference to the Balrog in the TSR AD&D hardcover manuals
(Monster Manual, MMII, Fiend Folio).

Before I go ahead and use the stats for a `Demon - Type VI (Balor)',
can anyone clue me in on the real stats for the Balrog, and why they
don't appear in the manuals (was there some sort of copyright dispute -
like when Melnibonean Mythos disappeared from the Demigods & Dieties
manual)?
