Thanks for the write up, it sounds like a fun game!

There's one situation that still frustrates me sometimes: hunters attacking (with ranged weapons) a monster that lacks a ranged weapon (or ability.) Without the opportunity for exchange of harm, it can't be Kick Some Ass. Unlike the situations in which it makes sense for damage to be automatic without a roll, it seems like ranged attacks are always uncertain and warrant one.
Mostly, I've been calling for Act Under Pressure, but at least once I didn't really like that option. In the Mongolian Death Worm scenario, the Summoned was lugging a water cooler bottle and had climbed on top of a dinosaur skeleton, lying in wait where he hoped a worm might appear (the Hunters had cleverly used the museum's air conditioning to make everything cold except one region to drive the worms there.) A worm did, and he threw. But it wasn't all that tense a situation -- the worm wasn't in position to hurt anyone; it was moving slowly and there would be plenty more opportunities to attack it.
Hello, I just ordered MotW, and noticed this thread. I do have a few of the special AW playbooks if anyone is interested in a trade. I have: Faceless, Hoarder, Maestro, Quarantine, and The Touchstone.
If anyone is interested let me know! Thanks!
I would be happy to trade with you. Email me at connallmac (at) gmail dot com. I will trade you the Luchador, the Summoned, the Divine, the Snoopy and the Hard Case for them.
