Are there any very short descriptions out there of each class? As wonderful as they are, the introductions in the text to the playbooks are so long. I’m looking for a sentence or two is all (something that will not take a lot of time to read to the table).
Heya Tavernites, are you looking for a GM?
Heya Tavernites, are you looking for a GM?
Just wanted to share a new resource with the people of my favorite game. I’ve disappeared for the last few months due to working on this new platform for GMs and players and am proud to say that it is live as of today.
http://www.LookingForGM.com is a platform that allows players to connect with and support Game Masters of online pen-and-paper RPGs. Our listings allow Game Masters to list the games that they host so that players can find the perfect game for their schedule and style. Click here to see a list of features and benefits.
Let me tell you why I think you may benefit from this platform:
– build your reputation as a sensational GM with ratings and testimonials from your players
– have a location for your game listings so you’re not always “looking for a group” within one small community and just watching the listing ending up in the LFG graveyard
– establish yourself as a reputable GM and advance yourself as a professional when we implement payments through the website
– help create a central location for game listings along with a resource center for improving your GM skills as well as showing off your talents
– try new games you might never have otherwise thought of, or been able to find a GM for!
This platform is in its beta stage so please bear with us as we continue to develop it. We look forward to creating a service that the RPG community can benefit from. Join us in creating something truly great that advances the RPG community into a new era of innovation and entrepreneurship.
You can also join our G+ community here: https://plus.google.com/communities/107395425404008638940
Thanks for listening!

Good discussion on the DW subreddit regarding Volley’s rules. Made me wonder if I’ve been doing it all wrong!
Good discussion on the DW subreddit regarding Volley’s rules. Made me wonder if I’ve been doing it all wrong!
I’m curious about the general communities approach to a basic Volley move with multiple attackers involved. Here is the scenario:
GM: Ranger, 3 Goblins are across the room and advancing on you to attack, what do you do?
Ranger: I draw my bow and start popping off as many shots as I can at the three of them!

Flags and XP
We’re considering switching from bonds to flags. How do you award XP from flags? I’ve seen several methods.

So I thought about this one a bit ago, mainly because my Visual Novel World has an adventuring component that relies somewhat heavily on Dungeon World rules.

Suppose I wrote a book called Visual Novel World based on the character creation of Class Warfare and featuring an Adventure Mode based loosely on DW combat, but uses Cool, Hot, Smarts, Sports, and Weird as the attributes (with max being +3 as usual).
It occurs to me that players as it stands can have an infinite amount of stuff, baring only my personal restraint on handing out gear. I gave everyone 9 “picks” at the start of the game (or at least up to 3 picks per Archetype), but that says nothing about what they can carry. So I was thinking a quick and easy way to fix it is to give the starting 9 “slots” plus a factor of… Sports? Cool? Both? Either? Blood (the higher of Sports or Cool, +3)?
If it’s Sports and Cool, then characters could have up to 15 slots assuming a factor of 1, or 18 for a factor of 2.
If it’s one or the other, a factor of 2 gets me 15 slots and a factor of 3 gets me 18
If it’s blood, then a factor of 1 gets me 15, but a factor of 2 gets me 21
What would a slot be?
>>>An infinite number of yen notes
>>>100 coins
>>>3 ammo
>>>A number of slots equal to an armor’s natural armor rating
>>>1 slot for one handed weapons, 2 slots for either 2-handed tag, +1 slot for Clumsy
>>>Somewhere between 5 and 15 pounds depending on if an item is large and bulky, or small and easily pack-able
Should I bother?
Has anyone attempted to hack the Crews mechanic from Blades in the Dark for standard Dungeon World parties?

Hey all!
Hey all! I’m getting ready to run a game and am looking for a collection of names and remember seeing a “Cultural names collection” somewhere on the internet. It basically had chapters of names separated by culture. The number of names was staggering. I cant seem to find it no matter how i search, so i figured I’d go on a long shot and ask here if anyone knows where i can find it.

Question about Adventuring Gear: when players use it, would you then let them ‘keep’ what they picked out, assuming it makes sense in fiction? Like, say they used adventuring gear to get a grappling hook, could they then pick the grappling hook up, mark it down in their inventory, and just have it in future?
