My rod of Arcana summoned some giants, but only form the waist down.

What a coincidence. I've been told that I'm a giant from the waist down.

Thuryl LOL
My rod also creates half giants but the optical strangeness doesn't afflict their fighter quality. So it's just a funny bug.

Thuryl, I advise self-defenestration.

I think it's because giants and other large characters are made up of multiple pictures that the game has to put together. For some reason, when they get summoned the other half doesn't show up.
Actually, now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure in A2 those characters were part monster-pic and part terrain-pic.

I had the same weird thing happening to a Augmented Giant I put in the senario I'm building. What type of Giant did it happen to with yours?

They were augmented giants. I also discovered that if NPCs summon giants (Vahkos summoned some plain giants) that the graphics are fine.

All right, fine. I just remember looking at some pics of them that were only one half. And certainly the reason is that the pictures are two tiles high.

Or perhaps the augmented giants are so strong they don't need a torso. :D
