Hey Everyone! Hope you all had a great holiday season. As a small gift to my fellow TME'ers, I've created an index with all of the monsters from ALL of the TME books. it's a PDF, but you should be able to cut and pasted it into an excel. Cheers! Tim Attachments:Creature Index.pdf (122.09 KB)

I'm considering adding some columns... something the GM could use when deciding what monsters to use. I'm not sure what information would be the most useful. Endurance? DV or SV? They don't have levels, so it's hard to decide what factor should be used. Any ideas, Thorn? Or anyone else?

Hm... I always pre-select all my planned encounters. Random ones I use the tables from pg. 136 of The Mutant Bestiary 1 & then use the closest matching beast overall (if the one used isn't listed) & the Rank Tiers suggestions from it. Hasn't done me wrong so far (stupid Rambo-type PCs who don't flee from/avoid obviously powerful foes get what they deserve in TME, it is NOT a forgiving game!). Having a Character devoured by a Reptilus war-band kind of drives home the point of man NOT being on the top of the TME food-chain... [Display: Evil Grin]

They don't have levels, so it's hard to decide what factor should be used. Any ideas, Thorn? Or anyone else? Possible options would be: - Environment it prefers (swamp, desert, forest; diurnal/nocturnal/both)
- Number encountered (single, group, mob)
- Attack style (ambush, direct, trap, etc)
- Diet (carnivores would actually retreat so they can attack other stuff, herbivores fight to the death as they think you are trying to kill them for food, Omnivores similar to carnivores)
- Tool-using? (and how complex the tools it uses
Similar to the categories we use for creatures on current Earth

Todd, the environment type is perfect. That's exactly what kind of idea I was looking for. Thanks!
Thorn, when you preselect, what do you consider?

So I've posted a link to this on the TME Discord channel. The link goes to a sheet that I'll keep updated. Enjoy! 1drv.ms/x/s!At_WBrnw__dWhZ5Dm92PUycdmsAHzw?e=wQ6Ef8 Tim |
