When you roll 10+ on Hack & Slash, you can choose to allow your opponent to hit you you in order to deal 1d4 extra damage. Does this option come up often in your games? It seems to me you will almost always take more damage than you deal this way. I can  only think of some uncommon situations where that might helpful. Am I missing something? Or should it be an option that is almost never used?

Anybody done any additional info on the hireling rules? Maybe suggested coin costs?

I converted my campaign over to Dungeon World today. The characters began life in the Beyond the Wall game. I love character creation in BtW, but I haven’t really enjoyed the actual gameplay; other than the magic, the rest of the game is pretty much standard D&D.

I made custom playbooks for the characters and we tried them out today. The players seemed to enjoy it, and the “fail forward” style really helped to drive the game. I think the experiment will turn out to be a success, BUT I figured I’d ask the tavern if anybody has had problems converting an ongoing game to DW in the past, or if there is anything specific I should watch for.
