Alternatives to clocks
Alternatives to clocks
Hey folks, I’m designing a fantasy PbtA game* and it uses clocks right now. But clocks feel too advanced for the “ancient and storied” feel I want for the game. Has anyone hit on better metaphors? A simple track, like the XP track, could work. I was thinking maybe a sword or a flagon that you’d fill in vertically?
Anyone done something like this or had ideas along this line?

Hey guys and gals! We’ve got some more Apocalypse World goodness for you this week. It’s kind of a new arc. The crew decided to go see The Lightning People instead of hanging out with Gen. Mill. Please enjoy!

Hey folks!
Hey folks!
Wanna dive into some narcofiction stories a la Breaking Bad, The Wire, and El Mariachi? I’ve just launched a Kickstarter for my new PbtA game, Cartel! IWe’ve already raised more than $17,000 and smashed through five stretch goals. ¡No mames!
In Cartel, you play bold narcos, naïve spouses, and dirty cops tied to the Sinaloa drug cartel, trying to keep your head in an increasingly dangerous game of drugs, money, and power. Navigate complex and dangerous relationships, make desperate plays for money and power, and discover how far you are willing to go to hold on to what is yours. Buena suerte, cabrón.

Years ago, I asked myself what a Mexican-American RPG looked like: Cartel is my answer. I hope you enjoy it!
Ok, Crazy question….Has anyone ever tried or hacked Hot Rods & Gun Bunnies from BESM, just curious.
Ok, Crazy question….Has anyone ever tried or hacked Hot Rods & Gun Bunnies from BESM, just curious. I think it’ll be pretty simple with the base playbooks available. Any Thoughts?
