Wow Thank you! This has been all great advice. I think noclue really made me think about it. It does take away from the point of Moves being triggered by the narrative. To have players plot out their Moves defeats the purpose.
Perhaps the moves can be tagged with a type of statistic.

For example a Move called "Blatant Disregard for Personal Safety" where the hero jumps in front of a moving car, bullet, rhino, etc.) can be tagged with Daring. When this move is used Daring Bonus + whatever + 2d6. The whatever modifier could be a daring pool. Each time a Daring move is used the player banks a "Pulp Point" in that stat which can be used to either add a +1, roll three dice take the best two, or trigger a move effect.

Does that make sense?

Hello, I am new to the forums and was trying to figure out where to post my question.
I am working on a 1930's Pulp Hack and I have been on the fence about using Dynamic Stats.
Go give an idea of what I am talking about, I will use the examples of FATE Accelerated's Approaches or Styles from the earlier edition of Pulp Era.
So instead of nailing down a specific function of a stat during play, there are 4 or 5 that could possibly work depending on how the player wanted to perform the move.  The back and forth I keep having with myself is "this type of mechanic always seems to be abused, so why bother" and "With the right players it gives a wider option in capturing the mood of an action".
What I mean by abused is some will argue why their action should be performed with the highest modified stat.

I guess what I am getting at is should I build customer Moves for each stat so it narrows down what modifier can be used, or take the leap of faith that the players will do the right thing. Custom Moves based on a stat would then take away the dynamic aspect of doing this in the first place.  This is most likely me sweating the little stuff, but I want to make sure I get input before moving forward.
