Title: About to start running...
Post by: Shane on May 13, 2013, 05:02:24 AM

Hey folks,

So, Ive run Apocalypse World a ton, and played Monsterhearts on the player side, and I am about to start running Dungoen World for a few gamers round where I am. Does anyone have any top tips specific to running DW? And around converting old adventures?

Thanks,

Shane

I just started my first DW campaign a few weeks ago and for me the most helpful thing was to remind myself that whenever a hero was doing something, and there wasn't a specific threat directed at him, just let it happen. I've needed to break the old habit of asking for "success" rolls for things like spotting, getting into a position, making a simple climb.

Basically if you can't think of a good hard or soft move that could stem from the hero's action then just let it happen.
