Using JAGS for fantasy Power Level and race and species creation
JAGS wild west bestiary
I wanted to collect a bunch of page numbers that are useful for JAGS fantasy games. I'm doing so for both a record for me for easier location and for anyone wanting to create species, races, and creatures. I'll then in the next post maybe try to recreate the basic fantasy races from the 1st edition into the JAGS Revisied edition, to make using them easier.
JAGS Revised References
Character Points and Archetype PointsJAGS allows several different degrees of power within the game. These levels of power are found in JAGS Revised on p 27.
JAGS Fantasy p 1 has some similar notes. In it it mentions 8 points is the normal amount for building races/species. 24 points would be a powerful race/species.
If I combined the two charts what would it look like?
The fantasy book mentions that the power levels are Basic Points (BP) and the races are Fantasy Power Points (PP). So I've equated:
Basic Points (BP) to Base Character Points (CP)
Power Points (PP) to Archetype Points (AP)
