Artifact Creature Types

New 02 Nov 2022 Asked by ime33 42 Comments

Q about creature types: is there a design reason behind why there are a lot of artifact creatures in BRO with a normal creature subtype? i.e. Simian Simulacrum being an Ape instead of an Ape Construct (or Robot), same with Fallaji Dragon Engine and Dragon (not Dragon Construct)


We tend to use Construct as a catch-all (for artifact creatures) when nothing else fits, similar to how we use Beast or Horror. But if we have a creature type, we don’t need to use Construct.
