Roadhouse Patrons, I need your help,

As you may know Michael Sand’s wonderful Monster-of-the-Week expansion More Weirdness is nearing publication. Later in production a decision was made to possibly include a playbook I authored: The Gumshoe. To try to keep this project moving forward as quickly as possible would you please share your feedback on my playbook?

I would very much appreciate…

I’m setting up to run a campaign with a couple of friends who have never been part of a Tabletop RPG before.

I’m setting up to run a campaign with a couple of friends who have never been part of a Tabletop RPG before. I wanted to streamline their experience as much as possible and figured I should create a ‘one-sheet’ for the basic tallies that they need to keep up with.

Maybe this can help someone else too!

I worked on a Playbook template for myself. Feel free to copy and use.

It uses the following Google Docs fonts which you might have to install: Bangers, Carter One, and Open Sans.

Merge cells where appropriate. And if you’d like a cleaner look, select the tables and set the border to 0 (which I plan to do).

Feedback is appreciated.

Hi, is there a version of the Chosen who isn’t as focused on the special weapon?

Like to me what made Buddy special wasn’t her stake or that scythe/axe she got at the end, and tbh I consider them pretty negligible for the character, it was her determination, her skill , and her inherent powers. Ideally I’d like to have an option that resembles that more while still being “The Chosen one”.

Anyone know of anything or have any suggestions?

Hey, I’m new to MotW, have only run one session, but I love the game.

Hey, I’m new to MotW, have only run one session, but I love the game. I have a question about harm and death. The book lays out what happens at 0-4 harm, 4-7, 8+ = death.

I just want to make sure that’s cumulative. Example:

Hunter takes 3 harm after armor, they are momentarily inhibited or drop something.

Same hunter takes 3 more harm after armor, are now at 6. They fall down, pass out, take -1 ongoing, etc.

Same hunter takes 3 more harm after armor, are now at 9. They’re dead.

Is that right? I just want to make sure I’m handling it right in case I kill someone’s hunter, because in our first mystery, a couple of them came pretty close, accruing 6 wounds before beating the monster.
