It’s a new +1 Forward, this time I get to chat with Michael Sands about his fun and exciting Monster of the Week! The AP has some good examples of how to run the mystery side of a MotW game.

Nice, I really like this one (surprise) and know probably the least about MotW, so dug this one a lot.

super, Fraser Simons ! I’m in two Monster of the Week hangout games and a play-by-post right now. All about it!

I’m a huge fan of MotW, too. I’m really excited to try out the More Weirdness thing, because I actually am not a fan of the game’s predisposition to have highly supernatural, magic-using characters. The Spooky is about the upper end of “weirdness” I like in the playbooks.

I respect and admire Mr. Cordova, but I’m a fan of Use Magic as a Basic Move. Give me modern day spell slinging!
(we can both be happy with MotW, that’s what I’m saying)
PS: I’m more right because the way I like it isn’t a web-only supplement.

I actually don’t mind Use Magic as a Basic Move, but I do ask the players to justify being able to use it in the fiction. For example, they need to have access to some kind of tome or special workspace.

I can get behind that, Jason Cordova

Can’t wait to hear it! I haven’t read the 2nd ed MotW yet, but I’ve run the original a lot! It really helped me get a handle on GMing.

go back and hunt your old Monsterhearts PC, Donogh McCarthy. I’m sure by now they’re awful.

Heh. In my campaign, The Professional’s justification for Use Magic is that he took the two week beginner’s seminar with the M-Com mystic’s division.
His latest attempt at use magic caused things to explode in a decidedly less than useful manner.
He’s also prone to trying to correct legitimate occult experts because Charm -1.

I would love to play this but my regular group isn’t too keen on PbtA and in the game I run with my brother he tends to enjoy GMing more traditional systems more.

Really entertaining. Though I do note that even without the goo escaping the boom there was still the goo on the autopsy table.

So this morning I listened to the episodes with Stephanie Bryant and Gregor Vuga and I really appreciate the way you honor the play and audibly express your joy in playing it.

Oh nice I’ve been looking to play Monster of the Week ever since I started rewatching Supernatural. I’ll definitely give this a listen.

Colin Kierans, this is THE game to play Supernatural. It does Supernatural fiction incredibly well.

There is the Cortex based Supernatural RPG (the same company did the Buffy RPG if I remember right) but I haven’t played Cortex enough to say if I like it or not.

Eden’s Buffy RPG (by the personable CJ Carella) was an early, successful implementation of the no-dice-rolling GM, so there’s something pleasingly apt about the genre getting one of the first PbtA games.
