The worth of Strength&Craft creatures as trophies

By zealot12, in Talisman Rules Questions

Monsters like the Cerberus, Eastern Dragon or Lord of the Pit: when you defeat them in either psychic battle or combat, can you exchange the trophy for either Strenth or Craft, or should the stat point correspond to the type of combat which you chose against them when attacking?

Official rules say nothing specific about those trophies. The general rule is "A character gains one Strength/Craft counter for every seven points of Strength marked on the trophies he turns in". Based on this, you may exchange those trophies as you see fit for your Character.

However, a popular house rule, which I apply, is to exchange those trophies according to the type of combat in which you defeated them.
