I’m starting to investigate a bit of rules drift when it comes to large groups of weak enemies that are only a threat because of their organization, or something they can do together.  It started when I was playing The Regiment, and had trouble figuring out how to deal with a machinegun nest.  I started wondering if maybe the entire machinegun nest could be treated as a DW monster.

Then I started thinking whether I could treat an group of DW monsters as a single DW monster.  Now, I understand this might violate some of the premises of DW, that a blow is a single blow, but if, for example, I want the adventurers to fight a group of bees, I don’t want to stat up each bee individual.  That would be asinine.  I want monster called “Swarm of Bees.”

And if you can do that for bees, why can’t you do that for groups of larger monsters too?  I know that this will probably be handled in the war supplement, but I think this could be a useful hack for now.

Uh, how am I supposed to manage a horde of 2d6.w monsters attacking the same target?

Uh, how am I supposed to manage a horde of 2d6.w monsters attacking the same target? I roll 2d6 once at a time for every monster taking the worst die of the couple and then I take the best result from all the rolls as the damage dealt? There’s no way I can roll just once?

Does anyone know how long it takes to get registered on the Dungeon World forums (Barf forth…)?  I tried to register a couple of days ago and still no admin confirmation.

So.

Dungeon World announcement of PDF / Book bundle on Indie Press Revolution pops up on my feed at 4:20pm.

It is 4:37pm, and I have yet to get the IPR site to load.

Coincidence? I think not.

EDIT: Indie Press Revolution is back up and running. 

Now that I can actually get to the page, I went ahead and added a direct link to the DW products.

Dungeon World, p. 76 (retail pdf) says:

Encumbrance

When you make a move while carrying weight you may be encumbered. If your weight carried is:

• Equal to or less than your Load, you suffer no penalty

• Less than or equal to your Load+2, you take -1 ongoing until you lighten your burden

• Greater than your Load+2, you have a choice: drop at least 1 weight and roll at -1, or automatically fail

[/quote]

No upper limit is given.  Assuming 100 coin = 1 load, how much of the dragon’s hoard can one carry away at one time?

Hey Adam Koebel and Sage LaTorra, could we have user lists for the Codex?

Hey Adam Koebel and Sage LaTorra, could we have user lists for the Codex? This would be the easiest way to allow people to form logical groups of monsters (e.g. based on setting or theme).

Hey all!

Hey all!

Hey all! Quick question in preparation of my first game tomorrow. How do to handle multiple players making the same moves in light of a failure? I could see a player doing a spout knowledge after finding some interesting relic or a book in an unknown language, failing, and then another character stepping in to do the same.

Is this a problem I should worry about, and if so how do I handle it?
