Feedback about monster

I couldn't find a Giant Worm creature that's not a Lindworm, so I wanted to make a giant earthworm-like creature with sharp teeth, tunneling capabilities, and various acrobatics that wouldn't overwhelm a lone PC with the double initiative draw ability. I'm not very good at making these things, and my writing has suffered due to time and the late hour, so I would appreciate feedback!

The giant creatures prowl the subterranean areas of mountains, tunneling to create vast underground networks connected to clusters of natural caverns.

3 Pummeling Smash

4 Flanking Attack

Which system do you feel best supports the Ultima style of gameplay?

I'm deciding between OSE Advanced Fantasy and OSRIC. I haven't played much of the Ultima computer game series, just a little bit of 1 and 3, but they feel pretty free roaming. I'm not quite sure how to describe it, and I'm not sure it's an exact match to the style of older D&D campaigns.

It might help if I knew what Richard Garriott was playing on the tabletop during this era. But other than that, I'm even open to OSR systems outside of AD&D/BX.

Can CompTIA Linux+ help with cybersecurity and relevant certifications?

I scanned the Wiki and didn't see Linux+ mentioned. I was wondering if this certification could give me some background that can help me with Cybersecurity and the recommended certifications for it.

I know some people think Cybersecurity is just the latest boondoggle, others claim it's possible to get in with no experience, so even without Cybersecurity the possible certification journey and I what I would learn matters to me if you want to weigh your answer more towards that.

Let’s say I want to do a thing in a programming language. Languages have lots of features. Is finding the right one just a matter of searching, documentation, or something else?

I feel like I’m priced out of it at the moment and am a little sad about it. Do the 5.5 core books ever go on sale?
