Can anyone shed some light upon why the rules for monster group attacks (take highest damage dice and add + 1 for additional monsters) is different from the helpful DW guide (roll damage for each monster and take the highest amount). Was there a rules change in development. Which one are folks using?

Hi all. Am new to the group. Done a little RPG-ing in the past. Not much GM-ing. Have tried a few systems recently (Savage Worlds, Ubiquity, Mouseguard). None have been that great. Too many stats / maths. Mouseguard has been the best as it focuses on narrative but the theme is not the best for me and it feels a bit restricted. I’ve been looking for something dungeon crawly but more focused on narrative than tabletop skirmishing. Also I’m looking to pitch it to a group of boardgamers and not looking for anything too complex. DW seems a good fit at face value but, being an inexperienced GM, I am wondering if anyone has advice.

Also what’s a playbook?
