I’m sure this has been answered so if it has please feel free to link me to the post. I love GMing masks, but shortly I would only have two players and myself as Game Master. Can you make a good dynamic story with 2 people? Like a a buddy partner team, or does mask only work with a a larger team.
So here is my crazy apocalypse world story idea o am trying out today with players.
So here is my crazy apocalypse world story idea o am trying out today with players. I love the idea, but I also think it’s tropy as hell and also really mysogenistic…yet not? I can’t tell if this idea is good, bad, awful, or just plain perfect tropy apocalypse. I need to say it though out loud so I can know if I should.
My 6 year old daughter wrote names for our AW campaign she wrote one named baby. I decided to make baby an enemy handhold without thinking much more since they never met baby yet. Then a psychic teller told our hero team that they need to go to Baby secretly to stop a warm between the two holds.
Then game ended and I thought about what you do game 2 and here is the crazy F’d up apocalypse I came up with.
Baby is a malevolent demon in the maelstrom (possibly Lucifer) and it communicates to our world as an unborn child inside the hardhold that is his mother known as the Reverend mother. The Reverend mother’s hold is a hospital and he rules it from the maternity/labor and delivery ward where they can always keep her and Baby safe. As long as the Reverend mother is pregnant baby speaks to her and is actually the real hard hold. When Baby is born The entity leaves the mother and is inside a baby. Since the baby can’t communicate the hold is defenseless at this time and the Reverend mother does the best she can to rule and protect. When the Reverend mother gets pregnant again the entity of baby returns to her and Baby can begin advising the hold again. All of Reverend mother’s children are connected to baby psychically. This cycle will then end when the Reverend mother’s first born is old enough to impregnate her so baby impregnates baby and then the child born will be the Antichrist god king child when it grows up. Until then the Reverend mother keeps searching for eligible suitors to be the seed of baby so that all he children will one day be princesses and princes that rule the Apocalypse once their King is born.

So I think is idea is super crazy totally apocalypse and so much friggin weird I love it. Meanwhile I hate that it has so many tropes against women it because I try to avoid those in games. Yet there it is my super crazy convoluted disturbing hold.
So I’m finally ready to start another game, and a friend wants to play apocalypse world,as does my wife.
So I’m finally ready to start another game, and a friend wants to play apocalypse world,as does my wife. The problem is they might be my only 2 players. So my question is can AW be played as a two player Badlands duo team of awesome? I’ve not tried a 2 player AW game, but I’m have tempted to rub with it and enjoy it. Just looking for some advice, tips, and experiences.

If any of you wish to share somewhere cool where gamers meet in New York and new Jersey I will will.happily stop by. It’s nice to know you are there.
So I’m new and trying first game next Friday.
So I’m new and trying first game next Friday. I only have the core book. I also haven’t read through all of this yet so if these were answered already I apologise.
1. Are there supplements or extra characters? If so are they good?
2. The Beacon power won’t let you down. I don’t get it. 2 from the team pool to give someone+2 to a roll. Isn’t that just what team is? How is this a power?
So game one of AW 2.0 went amazing.
So game one of AW 2.0 went amazing. Be clause of failed perception rolls ajd misunderstandings at the start of next game we are having two motorcycle gangs fight it out with a driver on the side of the players as well inside a truck.my question isnwhst battle move works best for w gangs fighting. It’s not really 1 on 1, but it’s also not.a free for all because there are two sides, what would people recommend using wise for this type of combat.
Tomorrow I start my first game of AW 2nd edition…well at least as much as in the test doc.
Tomorrow I start my first game of AW 2nd edition…well at least as much as in the test doc. Excited to explore specific themes. I read though once about a person using slack in Nights Black Agents as away to keep track of what’s going on in Game for all to see online. Are there any online tools people have used with AW to enhance the experience?
So I’m hoping someone could help with this as I wait for AW2 to come out.
So I’m hoping someone could help with this as I wait for AW2 to come out. I want to run a game with the new rules, buy on a lot of character sheets it says if you want to start with a vehicle or prosthetic ask the GM.
1. Does that just mean ask the GM if it’s OK, or is this a tell for a mechanic?
2. Are prosthetics and robotic limbs meant to give an in game bonus or disadvantage or are they just for flavor?
Meguey Baker Vincent Baker would either of you be willing to elaborate? Or does anyone else have any ideas?
I just read the book enclave by Ann Aguirre.
I just read the book enclave by Ann Aguirre. Its a young adult book, but probably one of the best stories about the apocalypse I have ever read. Have others read it, and are its sequels as good?
So totally random.
So totally random. As it seems wwwrpg is a great one shot. Anyone interested in trying around today in like an hour for an hour or two? I’ve wanted to try running a game of it.
