Agreed, the Beginner's Guide is highly recommended: http://apocalypse-world.com/forums/index.php?topic=4996.0 --- I think it's a great game, definitely my go-to fantasy RPG. If nothing else, it's changed the way that I play D&D.

I've done some digging to try to untangle the setting's timeline - read it here: http://shrouded-lands.wikia.com/wiki/History Particularly useful, I think, is the "Alberon against Tiamat and Chimalia" section, which explains which happened first out of the Shuttering, the slaying of Tiamat, the...

Hey folks, I've gone through every hex and added the picture from the old DOCX/PDF compilation. Thank you to Daztur for originally assembling all those illustrations! I've also put the hex summaries in an Excel spreadsheet, for what it's worth.

Two maps of the Shrouded Lands: Also, I've further fleshed out an idea I had over a year ago for increasing participation in this project. I'm planning to post it on Story-Games. Let me know what you think: TELL ME ABOUT: WHERE THE PAMPAS MEET THE SEA WHAT’S ALL THIS ABOUT? For almost...

Mikhal Ward Mikhal Ward is a bore and an eccentric these days, but few have had more extraordinary childhoods than he. According to castle gossip, at least, he was the son of an imprisoned cataphract from the Golden Realm and the Thringish sorcerer who dared creep into the oubilette and tell her...

The Horse the Daz Left Thringish folk settled the swamps and rolling hills and pushed the Daz and other ante-Thringish folk beneath the hills and below the still waters. After the final withdrawal, a delegation of Daz visited the chapel of the Green LAdy at the camp of General Tarengael and cut...

The Unifying Theory of Blood (Jahur) Inspired by: http://hackslashmaster.blogspot.com.au/2013/11/on-ecology-of-troll.html Professor Westwright is surprisingly young - perhaps 17 or 18 years old - and his appointment to the Universities Two and One in Jahur is controversial. Some say it is a...

24.17 - Wingburn The Hallovers are rarely lauded as men of bravery or pluck, but one is - unbeknownst to most - celebrated as a hero. Tycell, squire to Sir Wayne, was born a Hallover. Like all of his family, Tycell kept close a feather that granted its bearer the power of that Witch Clan: to...

Whoops, dropped the ball on this one folks. But here it is now Quercus The sacred oaks that skirt this sloping wood Are dead--revive their withered roots with blood War Song, The Poetry of various Glees, Songs. and Company, London, 1798 They call it quercus. All goblins – and only...

I like the idea of calling it qwertyboopery, because as you say it's a civil wrong that has little to do with common uses of the words theft and property. But I think it absolutely matters whether copyright is or is not described as property, and whether infringement is or is not described as...

Trespass, vandalism, emitting a foul odour from an adjacent property, or building a shed so high it obscures a vista, are some examples of civil wrongs that deprive one of certain benefits of ownership, but which I would not consider acts of theft in the way that the crimes of burglary and...

Both of those quotes emphasise "intent to deprive the owner" of the benefit of ownership/possession. When unauthorised copying takes place, the owner is not deprived of ownership or possesion of their de jure monopoly.

Too easy! First, log in to the wiki. Then click the down-arrow just next to the Edit button. Select "Rename" and enter in the new name. I've done it for 45.18.

Hmm, an interesting distinction. That would be Drowned Andara: http://shrouded-lands.wikia.com/wiki/47.11 (see also: http://shrouded-lands.wikia.com/wiki/51.12) EDIT: And: http://shrouded-lands.wikia.com/wiki/43.12

Hi folks, I've had an idea. And my first attempt at this post explained why I thought this idea was a good one. But instead, I'm just going to throw it out there and see how people respond, and then we can dissect the idea later. @Daztur: I've always wanted to know: "What is a seawig and why...

Interesting, thanks Daztur. How would you distinguish save vs melancholy and save vs ennui?

Of the Hack & Slash ones, I think the Winter Soldier is my favourite: http://hackslashmaster.blogspot.com.au/search/label/Backgrounds

I have a left-of-centre question. One of the clever parts about the pre-3E saving throws is that they tell a new player, just by looking at their character sheet, what sort of challenges they might face: paralysation/poison/death magic, petrification/polymorphing, rods/staves/wands, breath...
