Hiya!

Hiya! Anyone ever run WWWRPG with only one player? What gets lost with only NPWs to wrestle against? What are potential advantages?

I’ve finally got a group of people to run a game of WWRPG

Most are new to RPG’s in general

I’m going to start with just a one-shot and hopefully they have a good time and tell more people and that can eventually lead to having a large enough group to do it semi regularly.

I am just wondering if people have had any feedback on momentum for the first game. I’m thinking that going with the starting amount of 1 could go fairly quick. So, was looking at if people had had luck with running the first game with a higher amount of Momentum and what was good and what was to much that it just ruined the game?

I’m prepping a game of WWW for a bunch of friends who don’t really watch wrestling, so I’ve been putting together some resources for them to explore. I made a big ol’ Google Doc with links to YouTube videos of commonly used wrestling moves. Hopefully it will help some new folks put their visual ideas into words!

Concept: a pro wrestling league, set in the 90s, but every fighter and faction is named after a Voodoo Glow Skulls song. (n.b. VGS = 90s ska-punk group)

“Los Hombres Que No Lloran” – a spooky dapper trio

“Band Geek Mafia” – their foils, a kind of trolly New Day before their time

“El Coo Cooi” – a Monster for sure

“Human Piñata” – more the nickname of a hapless jobber, he kayfabe hates it

“Bulletproof” – a Technician w decent Power

“Shoot the Moon” – actually a finisher that any wrestler can do when the time is right

“Baile de Los Locos” – definitely a large, wild faction of 2 masked superstars and like 12 masked jobbers; only wrestles noDQ matches

Add your own!

Here’s a question for the hive mind.

When you try to take control of an injured Cultural Champion, you have to break kayfabe.

Do you still use the other results of the Break Kayfabe move? I feel like yes, that makes sense. The bookers backstage expect you to follow the “star’s” lead.

Regarding those gimmicks that don’t have Finishing Moves (the Manager and the Boss), is Creative just unable to book them in matches, or can they never be booked to win, or what?

The only thing I can find in the book is that when Creative calls for the end of the match the wrestler booked to win should roll their Finishing Move (or equivalent) but as far as I can see it makes zero sense for either of the Manager nor Boss’ equivalents to be rolled in that situation.

Getting ready for season 3 (more like 5 if you count the roadshows) of Lowell Francis Gauntlet League Wrestling game.

Time to hit the Tag Team Division a bit i think.

Sing it with me.

Question for Creatives–when you book a match for X Wrestler to win via a DQ, do you have the wrestler roll their finisher as normal? Are there any flourishes or changes you make for that kind of finish? I just realized it was a sitch that hadn’t yet come up for me.

Nathan Paoletta I know you just updated everything and all, but is the Clown move “Surprisingly Talented” supposed to not have the “before spending momentum” tag that so many other 10+ moves do?

Or is it cool if they roll a 9, spend 1 momentum, to get 2 back and +1 heat with their opponent?
