Has anyone else seen the manga Drifting Classroom?
Has anyone else seen the manga Drifting Classroom? An elementary school and its kids, teachers, and janitor get pushed into a horrifically blighted mysterious landscape, and try to survive. Not very well, because nobody has secret ninja awesomeness waiting to be unleashed. Bad thing piles on bad thing, as in the pair of images linked here.
It occurred to me last night that the same kind of vibe would make for fascinating Monsterhearts play if you did it with a high school, or a community college, or a Peace Corps or AmeriCorps project, or something like that.
Hey AW Hackers – how do you feel about other folks making playbooks for your hacks?

I love the idea, but I’m in this weird place where I see how I would do it differently, but I don’t want to just rewrite other folk’s contributions. So far the game itself is in an early enough stage that the whole framework is still malleable, so the fact that these playbooks are coming from other people is triggering some really valuable conversations.
But in the future I see people enthusiastically contributing a playbook that just isn’t “right”. Am I a dick if I rewrite the problematic parts and put that out there as an “official” thing?

So I have been thinking of Tags a bit and what they have been used for in AW and in its hacks and I had a thought I need to just get out… Is it me or is a Condition nothing more than a Tag applied to a character and if so, aren’t some of the Moves (such as Insano like Drano or Breathtaking) are just a more permanent version of a Condition…
Can anyone point me to a good place (or places) to look for player-created Monsterhearts skins?

So what happens when “Lost” or “Frenzy” is used on a PC?

We had this going on with Lost last session.
I said the Player that his character just had this amazing idea to visit smith. This would really help right now. If he doesn’t want to go there right away he has to act under fire. 7-9 would be that he can do 1 more thing before going there. 6- is, hey: you don’T even know how you got here.
This is cool and easy, but what about Frenzy?

Ooookay, so I know I posted these a few days ago, but here they are again, with a few more details and a few more pages with some hints at what the rules are going to look like. Work’s been a bear lately, right before the holidays, so I haven’t been able to finish everything up just yet, but I am pretty confident that I’ll have PDFs ready before the End of the World. I mean, all it really is is a World of Dungeons -ified version of Apocalypse World, with a hint of Chronica Feudalis, set during the beginning of the apocalypse itself. So it’s not like it’s going to be complex. But it should be short and fun and playable.
…I think.
I really miss playing AW.
I really miss playing AW. It was really a fun game when I was in it. What do you guys do when you lament RPG’s you don’t have opportunities to play but don’t have a practicable way to play them?

#ApocalypseWorld tonight. The Gunlugger missed a few sessions and so is not so connected to anything. He said his main goal for his character is to survive so the ratpeople will attack him i guess. Also Balls (mindfucker/perversion of birth) the owner of the Halfmoon-Shop (where basically everyone get’s food and water) will higher him as a new Bodyguard. This will allow me to show the players a bit more about the things Balls is doing behind everyones back.
Bascially this is how i prep. I have a rough outline of threats but i prep only a few situations for every character. So i will have stuff to say. I don’t HAVE to have this situations come up but it is helpful. The situations also won’t have to resolve in any way. I jsut like to give people (hard/bad) choices.
Hello.
Hello. My name is stated on the post anyway so i’ll just skip that. I’ve never played AW but i read some posts here there and it sounds like a fun game. My questions are simple. Is it story-oriented or combat-oriented? And does it use a single die amount, Much like Shadowrun and MERP, or some different amounts, such as D&D. I’ve played Vampires:Requiem, World of Darkness, D&D and MERP, so if any can relate to AW I’d be happy to know. Thank you in advance.
