Hey everyone. Just recently found the Tavern, and in the process of reading through the DW rulebook. I was wondering if someone would be willing to take a newbie DW-player (and RPG-player for that matter) for the ride? The problem is, I live in Finland (GMT +2), which might cause some scheduling issues.
I’ve followed Rollplay R&D on youtube, and got really interested in AW and DW and really look forward to trying it out.
There are quite a few of us Euros around. Pick-up games happen every now and again.
And welcome! :)
Welcome! I often see euro-games posted in here that I’m unable to participate in (eastern US here), so you’ll get your session if you keep your eyes open.
We will play a game this saturday in europe time. Check here

On this topic, any podcasts or videos of actual play could be useful. Unfortunately, I don’t have any of those to post. :p
Tim Franzke – do you plan to record the “hardcore” game to post for us? I would be interested in watching that play out for my own reference. I’d even give you a genuine U.S. penny for it. That’s ONE WHOLE CENT!
There are the rollplay sessions here

The international one-shot is not my best session but the Inverse World one is quite entertaining.
Kasper Brohus Allerslev do we want to send this out On-Air?
I am Kasper Brohus Allerslev. I have hijacked Chris McGee’s account. Yes we want to do this, Tim Franzke. Absolutely.
Spike Gowers from reading it, I don’t think the rules are different. It’s just more dangerous / deadly in an environmental way and you need to play smart/careful or get beaten up. The actual game rules will probably be the same though.
It means that hard moves will be enforced with full prejudice.
Think of it as an added principle
– don’t pull your punches on hard moves
Still things like being a fan of the character are in effect so i am not out to go and kill people.
Thanks for the links, Tim Franzke. Your accent shocked me at first. 🙂
why is that?
English speakers are sometimes baffled that people bother learning another language ;p
Oh no, I’m well aware that folks outside of America are more often bilingual. 🙂 I could never learn another language myself, I don’t think I have the correct type of intelligence for it.
I guess, as folks are prone to do, I just assumed you were from my country and thus wasn’t expecting an accent! Maybe your first name threw me off? I don’t know. I’m just being ignorant, I guess!
Just to annoy Chris McGee even more, here is what i posed as inspirations for the game:
Some pictures for inspiration
