Title: Two Hacks I'm Excited About
Post by: Jeff Russell on June 09, 2010, 07:19:33 AM
Unfortunately, I didn't discover the sweet AW sauce until after the playtesting was closed, and I haven't seen the full rules yet. But what I have seen is tantalizing, and these two hacks have done a lot to get me excited about the game. I've got a few ideas of my own, but I want to wait until I've, you know, read and played the real thing a bit first.

Anyway, both of these have been getting some lovin' over at Story Games:

Dead Weight (http://story-games.com/forums/comments.php?DiscussionID=12151&page=2#Item_51)
Apocalypse D&D (http://story-games.com/praxis/comments.php?DiscussionID=152&page=1#Item_0)

Best,

Jeff Russell

P.S. Is there a preferred format for topic subjects? Or should this have been a reply to specific hack forums?

I think it's worth linking to this whole thread from over on SG: http://story-games.com/forums/?CommentID=274123 (http://story-games.com/forums/?CommentID=274123)
It includes ideas about a western, cyberpunk, gritty fantasy, mutants, Song of Ice and Fire and other possible hacks.

Also, here's mine, it's based on the Icelandic Sagas: http://story-games.com/praxis/comments.php?DiscussionID=218&page=1#Item_1 (http://story-games.com/praxis/comments.php?DiscussionID=218&page=1#Item_1)
Still in its very early stages, I probably won't finish it until I get the finished product and read the chapter about making custom moves and stuff.

Oh! I forgot to mention yours, Gregor. I am also excited about it, because Vikings are sweet.
