Actions that allow tokens to be removed or replaced from bags without playing them.

This pattern is a still a stub.

Examples

Yggdrasil provides actions to improve the distribution of tokens in a bag by randomly drawing tokens and only replacing the wanted ones.

Anti-Examples

While Hyperborea has bag building as a core mechanic, it does not provide actions to view the contents of bags and replace or remove tokens in it. Therefore, it doesn't support Bag Management.

Using the pattern

Bag Management is a way to modify how Bag Building works. Designing it consists of which actions to manipulate the bag besides the basic ones of putting Tokens into bags and removing them later. The basic move to support Bag Management is removing Tokens without "playing" them. Options include replacing Tokens with other ones instead of removing, removing (or replacing) several, and blindly taking several but only removing (or replacing) certain (Yggdrasil makes use of the last of these).

Consequences

Bag Management adds Freedom of Choice to Bag Building and can let players create Player-Decided Distributions. This can provide a time-limited form of Abstract Player Construct Development.
