gnome7 posted:Yep, the four new playbooks are all repurposed from IW's dungeon world playbooks. They are the Angel, the Collector, the Lantern, and the Rain, based on the Sky Dancer, Collector, Lantern, and Rainlord, respectively. No Mechanic? I has a sad. (But seriously this sounds very cool and I am super excited for it!)

gnome7 posted:I have no self control so Inverse Fellowship has two more playbooks now: The Tinker and The Beast. And also there's a lot of robot stuff in it now, so the Constructed will also be reprinted in this book. It's already Inverse World's Golem playbook, after all. Hooray! I was already super excited for this, and now I'm at least 10 times more excited for it!

On a related note, the Harbinger"s Doomed Soul move says that when it Share it, their Doom stat is +1, but then says this move cannot be Shared. E: Disregard, Read Mode formatting on my phone got weird and I missed the header for the Doom and Gloom move. GimpInBlack fucked around with this message at 20:54 on Mar 27, 2019 |

gnome7 posted:Speak Softly poll round 2: now with actual rewrites I don't have a Twitter to vote in the poll, but I like option one the best of the ones that is presented. But, in order to more closely parallel Look Closely, can I suggest something more like the following? 9-: your questions create problems down the line, either for you or for the person you asked. That keeps the consequences directly connected to actual play, and doesn't rely on NPCs arbitrarily deciding to screw you over. It also creates a perfect opportunity for the fellowship to be heroic again, when the overlords minions find out that George the blacksmith has been talking to the fellowship and show up to explain to him why that's not the best thing for his long-term health. Alternatively, it's still really easy to twist it as the NPC betraying the fellowship and Reporting whatever information he gave them to their enemies, while still retaining the fundamental honesty of interactions between players and the Overlord. And of course, it also very easily covers things like " this character doesn't actually know everything about what they're talkin about and some key piece of information is missing," or " the answer is something you really didn't want to hear" like in the current version of option one. EDIT: as long as you're making changes, I found one other small mistake in the witch's potion Master move. The option for the potion to get the user Drunk still says "choose two stats," but that's not how the Drunk tag works anymore. GimpInBlack fucked around with this message at 08:50 on Mar 28, 2019 |

paradoxGentleman posted:It is very nice, but I wonder if it might grow frustrating to keep getting sidetracked by the problems that the information you get causes. It doesn't have to be a side track though. I mean, sure it can be "now you have to go rescue George the blacksmith from the overlord's dungeons," and that spawns a new side quest so to speak, but it could also just as easily be "while you're engaged in your primary objective against the Overlord's armies, you find a bunch of prisoners being sent to a processing facility and oh look your old buddy blacksmith George is in there, boy letting them out right now sure would complicate things but he's only in there because of you. What are you going to do, hero?" There are plenty of ways for your questioning to cause problems down the line that doesn't completely derail the adventure. The problems also don't have to be as straightforward as "blacksmith George is now a prisoner and you have to rescue him," either. Like, it could just as easily be that one of the overlords minions was spying on you and heard you asking him about stuff, so now the bad guys know you're coming, or the thing that George tells you is "oh sure, the only way into the Metal Dungeon is to get the Sapphire Key from the Star Dragon, and she really doesn't like parting with any of her treasure."

Agent Rush posted:I'm not sure if this is the thread to ask, but I remember seeing gnome7 make some tweet threads about game design but can't find them now. One of them was about how +2 modifiers are boring, if anyone else knows what I'm talking about? Funnily enough, this literally just came up in the chat thread: https://twitter.com/Veliministriari/status/1145957463914663936?s=20

Nuns with Guns posted:I had a question about the interaction in mechanics between two Fellowship 2e playbook moves: Generally you can only use a move once per triggering event, so my reading would be that you can heal one person twice and yourself once.

Nuns with Guns posted:Where does the rulebook say that? Because Gnome says 4 posts up that this is an infinite loop by RAW. I don't mind the idea that it's not, but I was wondering how the RAW readings would be. And also, my bad, I somehow managed to conflate an explicit rule about SFX in Cortex Prime (which spells out that you can only use each SFX once per action even if you could meet the trigger condition more than once) with the general PbtA philosophy of "you generally can't use the same move over and over unless something about the situation changes" and mash them together in my brain. I still think it's generally a good guideline to say "one move trigger in the fiction = one instance of the move," because it does prevent infinite loop scenarios even if this specific instance wasn't one, but it's not actually a rule in Fellowship.

1upmuffin posted:I played Microscope with a group once and had a good time, is Fellowship sort of in that vein? Interested in the bundle. Depends on what you mean by "in that vein." Fellowship gives players a lot of control over the world (officially, you, the player, are the one who gets to tell us about your people--so e.g. if you play the Dragon, you get to decide what dragons are, what they're like, and what their culture is), and it has some good rules for a structured, shared world-building session at the start of the game, but the actual gameplay of Fellowship is "a party of heroes going on journeys and having adventures," not "a shared experience of building a world and its history" like Microscope.
