Hello PbtA folks!

Hello PbtA folks!

Hello PbtA folks! Veteran RPGer but new to your game system; I have played Monster of the Week, Blades in the Dark and Dungeon World at con games and loved the freeform/no prep style of this system.

My gaming group is now tasking me with running a Guardians of the Galaxy game, any suggestions for a PbtA hack and playbooks?

  1. A friend of mine is using Masks for a GotG game, and I think it’s a grand idea!

    You can tweak each Playbook’s powers easily to fit in the space adventure mold, and the themes of each character type are great in that kind of story.

  2. What sort of action do you see in a GotG game? Is it focused on the crew relationships (maybe Monsterhearts?) or is it focused on space travel and exploration (Uncharted Worlds) or is it about shooting and smashing (perhaps Adventures on Dungeon Planet).

  3. I’ve used Johnstone Metzger’s Adventures on Dungeon Planet to run some great pulp sci-fi games in the past. If your players are going to play the actual characters from GotG you would probably need to hack the playbooks.
