TFT Beastiary Suggestion
Moving from here:
http://forums.sjgames.com/showpost.p...0&postcount=78 I don't know if SJG plans on publishing a TFT Beastiary but if they do, I would suggest listing the monsters by attribute-point totals. A table of contents or index can provide alphabetical lookups. Quote:

Re: TFT Beastiary Suggestion
Obviously, stat totals alone aren't enough to form a perfect "challenge quotient" but it's a good starting point.

Re: TFT Beastiary Suggestion
It seems like each talent/spell/special attack/ability known could be added to a(n) (N)PCs stat totals to get a little closer to a simple but true-ish appraisal/comparison also...but for logistical sanity, listing by stat totals will suffice.

Re: TFT Beastiary Suggestion
I'd even be OK if everything was put into big 'buckets' like High/Medium/Low Challenge, but at some point GMs will want to know how to quantify their own creations and for that we'll need guidelines on how to weigh certain abilities against each other.

Re: TFT Beastiary Suggestion
I wouldn't really like this organizing principle; I'd greatly prefer something more conventional, like a grouping by broad type (plants, wild animals, spirits, etc.), or just alphabetical.

Re: TFT Beastiary Suggestion
Hmm. Yeah, that's true. I can see a lot of value in that. I think I might prefer that grouping as well. Perhaps they could be sub-ordered by stat totals?

Re: TFT Beastiary Suggestion
Or perhaps a simple table in the back of the book? Because, really, anything but alphabetical is a hindrance to quickly looking up a creature in the middle of a game.
