Coooool. I'm really psyched to see this in action and on the page, John. I'm curious to see what's different and what's the same as in AW. Will this be a complete text or will it build off of the AW book for the core rules of play?
A couple of things, because a quick copyedit is how I express my love: • "[PC] needs me to look out for them. Take bond +1 with them." This "bond +1" looks like it has an extra space, compared with the others in its column. • "get+1 to any stat (max +3)" This is lacking the space that the "get +1battle" and other items have upwards on the list.
Seeing the game's language in this other context is really interesting to me. I still read "roll+battle instead of roll+lucky" as having the broken-English post-apoc style in it (because the verb gets either repeated weirdly in my head, or because there is no verb—I'm still not sure how to read the "roll+trait" language), which is curious. I'm really looking forward to seeing what sort of voice you've given the manuscript for The Regiment. Consider my curiosity piqued and eager!
Thanks for the copyedit, Will! The Regiment is going to be an "expansion pack" for AW, rather than a stand-alone text. You'll need the AW book to play it.
I see what you mean about "roll+trait." I've been reading it as a technical expression of a mechanic for long enough that it doesn't jump out at me as quirky post-apoc the way, say, Hx or "barf forth" does. I'll think about that.
I am unfamiliar with AW, tho' hear superb things about it. Will the Regiment go into setting, ideas, etc for the base game more than just the PDF shown above, an extension to the game as it were?

Darn it! Why must I be tempted with even more Apocalypse World hack wonderfulness?!
ReplyDeleteAwesome. What does the "2/3 harm" on the bayonet mean?
ReplyDelete2-harm in your hand (like a knife), 3-harm when attached to the rifle (like a spear).

The Soldier playbook looks great!

This looks very promising !
ReplyDeleteFor my two cents I think you could always say "Test Lucky" (or Luck), "Test Battle", etc. and explain that a Test is a Roll plus the stat.
ReplyDeleteHi John. I wanted to thank you for your maps. I just cannibalized one for an adventure of mine!

ReplyDeleteI got to help test this at GenCon this year, I had an absolute blast. We had a great group of players and it went very smoothly.
