How many of you play the mini's game? Does the mini's rulebook (big hardcover) have anything in it that might be useful for the RPG?
yet another odd question...
The mini game is a totally different game. It uses premade characters that are not likely to be you PC's. I am sure that a creative GM who likes the mini game could find a way to integrate the two games. Just know that they are two different games.
There is some amount of in-character information in the minis game that isn't yet in the RPG. A lot of this information, however, pertains to individual persons who are mid to major players in the setting.
Actually some characters from the Miniature Game are present in Gaia where you find information about their Class/Level in the RPG setting. If you want to roll them (as I am doing...), you have to invent the rest.
Based on comparison between known levels from the miniature gamelevels from RPG, I've come to the conclusion that there is high variability, but you can apply such "conversion rate":
Level 10 in Anima Tactics -> Level 1,48 in Anima RPG with a range tollerance between 1,06-2
A few examples:
Feng Yi is Level40 in the Miniature Game -> His average Level is 6, but he could be in any range between 4-8.
Hiro is Level 50 in the Miniature Game -> His average Level is 7, but he could be in any range between 5-10.
As for the level of Wissenshaft Gears, take into account the fact that Reist Ebersbacher is a Level 9 charactercalculate the level of other pilots:
Grimorium Verum is Level 80/70/60 depending on who's piloting it -> An average of 12/10/9 (Reist/Frederick/Steiner). Now, since Reist is a Level 9, we should assume that Frederick is at least 1-2 level lowerSteiner about 3 levels lower
Then look at Goetia which is Level 60/65/50 -> An average of 9/10/7 (Valeria/Frederick/Edgard).
Keeping in mind Reist is Level 9, at this point I'd go for Level8 for Frederick (Ranger), Level 7 for Valeria (Shadow), Level6 for Steiner (Weapon Master) and Level5 for Edgard (Freelancer).
The 2 level difference between ReistValeria is also confirmed by Legacy of Solomon (Level 90/75 -> 13/11 Reist/Valeria average).
For other characters I usually decide based solely on simpathy...for example both Alessa'sCelia's average level would be 7 but I chose to make Alessa a Level7 character (although she's classified as a prowler in the Miniature Game, I made her a Technician with Natural Learner Subterfuge)Celia a Level 9 character (Acrobatic Warrior, pretty obviously).
I know that on the spanish forum you may find some official information about levels for characters from the miniature gamethere is a big tread on unofficial sheets for characters from either the miniature gamethe Gaia sourcebook, but personally I prefer doing stuff myself...it's part of the fun.
My projects involves creating a sheet for every single notable guy in the Gaia sourcebook plus every single guy in the miniature game...which is pretty much a lot. As of now I've rolled all main guys in Goldar, Helenia (still have to roll the Naga in the subquest there),GabrielI'm struck with Lucrecio, since it includes all Wissenshaft agents from the miniature game...oh3 other big guys from around the world (Erik Sterki, Nadya ChernomyrdinNemesis).
Anyone interested just needs to contact me.
