sooo.... i noticed there was a pretty unexpansive selection of alien animals in the EotE rule book, and no alien animals in enter the unknown, and no rules on making your own alien animals or environments in enter the unknown, that doesn't stop me from being creative and writing numbers, talents and abilities down. and using my narrative powers as GM to build an alien environment... just wondering if there are some guidelines out there or a forum post i missed...?

Not really...at least none that I have found.

Just build the stats to suit the encounter, or re-skin the few beasties that are out there.

This really upsets my GM. While he is very adept at writing his own stuff, he is seriously wanting a book with lots of "deadly" flora and fauna. He runs 3 different games and plays in one. Time, with RL and all, tends to be something he is lacking.

Beyond The Rim has a few critters of note.

I was expecting something like this in enter the unknown. I think the weak points of that book are the lack of tools for creating new and interesting locales and the lack of pictures for some items.

I hope further career books offer more concrete tools.

However... when all three rpgs are out, books compatible for all the lines could show up. A bestiary could be very useful as well as be a way to still create books for the rpg without Overpopulating careers with specializations. Other books could be timeline settings - while I hate the kotor era, if FFG can do it, people will buy it.

Anyone care to post their homebrew monsters?

(Or start up an "Unofficial Monstrous Menagerie"?)
