Scenario seed: The team is tasked with recovering a large crate from a dockyard that contains something they’re not expecting, a full body shell of a bunraku parlor worker with sentient and learning AI.
I forgot to mention the complication. It attaches to the first player it sees.

Hey, love the game and I’m glad to see that the playbooks and move sheets are out.
Hey, love the game and I’m glad to see that the playbooks and move sheets are out. It makes it much easier to understand and run the game for me.
I haven’t played it yet but I am already thinking about hacks already to run a certain cyber-fantasy game.
I was thinking of adding the races as custom moves to add to the class playbooks along the lines of:
TROLL
You are a giant hunk of knobby meat. If you don’t have +1 armor, you have +1 natural armor.
You are scary as hell. Take +1 to PLAY HARDBALL against non-trolls.
You’re Fucking Huge. It’s hard to fix things that fit. You take -1 to all rolls to GO UNDER THE KNIFE and HIT THE STREET to acquire [gear]
Not sure what to do about the other races yet. Thinking dwarf might get a minus to harm rolls and elves would have a bonus to fast talk.
Mage and Shaman would obviously be playbooks. I’m thinking Mage might have spells aka dungeon world and Shaman might summon spirits. Not sure yet. Thoughts?
About Financial and Masochistic directives.
About Financial and Masochistic directives. I think (but I may be wrong), they should be a little more complicated to complete. Something like :
– Financial : when you hinder the mission for a chance at extra profit aside the stakes when getting a job, mark experience.
– Masochistic : when you suffer one or more harm that you could avoid by being less ballsy, mark experience.
What do you think ?

Errata stuff: Page 171 of the PDF, under Alerts and Traces, the MC moves of Identify Intruder and Sever a Connection probably were meant to be bolded.
The MC sheets are now live on DTRPG.

I know there was an update and when I went to download it, I saw that the there were two identically named .pdf files. What’s the difference, Hamish Cameron ? When I opened them, they look the same…

Rule clarification: With Fast Talk on a soft success: The PC marks experience if the NPC chooses to follow the PC’s wishes OR the PC rolls Act Under Pressure if the NPC chooses not to follow the attempt?
Just a bit confusing.
Oh man, I finally had the “click” when it comes to understanding rules and now that I’ve had it.
