I’ve started another solo (not 1on1, but just me on my lonesome) game of AW, this time using the GM emulator Miso, written by Sophia Brandt​

It’s a lot of fun!

Farley the Drivers’ little story comes to an abrupt end. I swear, you drive full speed into one measly wall, sheesh.

Still going with my solo campaign experiment. I had my first go round using the new Threat design system for between session prep. I found it a really interesting tool to play around with, fun and engaging.

Thought I posted this last week, but I don’t think it worked for some reason.

Anyway, I’ve taken to running 2e all by my lonesome, using one of those gm emulator thingys. Blogged a little summary of how it went.

Nicest change for 2e on first readthrough:

HIGHLIGHTS. I’ve never seen a 1e game where there wasn’t some little pause of confusion at the start of a session when trying to figure out who was highlighting whose stats. Much cleaner here.

Biggest casualty (apart from the Operator):

BIG LIST OF NPC NAMES. Where did it go? Have I gone blind? Won’t someone think of the Rolfballs?

p.s. I love it

YEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHH BOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

It’s on

Which PbtA games have end of session experience awarding?

It seems mostly you collect XP while you play (eg when you roll a highlighted stat, on a miss, a move says so). I was wondering if there were any with a Burning Wheelesque end of session summary/epilogue where it can be awarded instead.

I think Freebooting Venus has it. Are there others?

Cheers

I ought to pull these suckers out next time I play, especially if I have some advanced moves
