They are all combat moves, but other moves can be triggered within combat depending on the fiction. Face Danger is a fairly common one. Good question. I am going to say no. You can acquire a bow at the cost of 1 Supply. Note: According to the rules, when adventuring as a group, you share the...

I haven't read the whole book in detail, but this caught my eye while scanning through the character generation system. It made me laugh. I thought that it was a meta-game joke at first. Then I realised that it was just how the Summmary points were written. I liked it better as a meta-game...

I'm pretty sure I was speaking in Common. Perhaps she is a little slow. Or maybe hard of hearing. Most likely hard of hearing given that frog. "I am Snow," says Winter, a little more deliberately this time. And making sure that she is speaking in Common. "That's Tifi," indicating to the little...

What are does the law say about inheritance and adopted children? Its not a magical solution. But if all you are looking to achieve is an heir, then it may be an option. Or a Plan B. thotd

The two raiders are dead. For the moment, you are out of immediate danger. Their features are truly beast like; fur covered and dog like, including wicked sharp teeth. Limbs wrapped in black linen. Light armour. Bare legs ending in clawed paws. For a moment, Pallas is transported back to the...

Drawing a weapon is not a move. Characters don't have moves, they make moves when trying to do something risky or uncertain. Drawing a weapon whilst engaged with an enemy is risky, so drawing the weapon in this situation means making the Face Danger move to see what happens. I am still getting...

"Oh for the love of root and branch, she has a family," mutters Winter under her breath. Doesn't she? Winter realises that she does not know. I should find out. The solid tome welded to the young woman's non-greasy hand is a dead giveaway, Winter concludes. Wizard. The Iolanthe have their...

"If we do this, we could well stir up a storm of trouble. It might pay to let the army know first. It might also pay to get a couple of the local lizard folk as guides ..." Winter looks as if she is going to say more, but stops. She pushes herself to her feet and heads over to where Tifi is...

Pallas launches as blistering attack on one Raider. Meanwhile, Penelope swiftly counters with the arrow in her hand, turning the tables on the the other Raider. Both Raiders are bleeding and wrong footed, their quarry has slipped from their grasp and snatched back the initiative.

Nice save. KN: To draw a weapon during a melee sounds like Face Danger (with speed, agility, or precision: Roll +edge). That's ok, Penelope still has a arrow in hand, so she doesn't need to draw anything. She can use the arrow as a weapon to inflict 1 harm (vice 2 harm with a sword). Which...

I have been thinking about this over the course of the day. The book says use a single Progress track for a shared/common vow. I think I will run with this approach until I know enough to make an informed decision about changing it. You can write your own outcomes based on the move. I will...

"I have asked. But the army command is reluctant to send people deeper into the swamp. "But perhaps if you ask, Swithun, with a group of volunteers behind you, the answer may be different. "I am up for it."

Nice call. Going all in. I was also only counting the change in momentum, not the running total. But, yep, I missed the +1 momentum to Pallas from the Loyalist Asset. And I didn't count the +1 momentum from Pallas's Swear a Vow move. Both Pallas and Penelope rolled for Make an Vow. Only one...

Pallas throws his support behind Penelope, giving her courage for what she has to do. Then setting his spear, he prepare to receive the charge. Penelope raises her bow and swears her vow to Apollo. Instantly she feels her thoughts clear. The way ahead is clear.

"It was my time to Travel." Winter pauses for a moment before continuing. "I was passing though Bit. I heard what was happening. I offered my service. I scouted for the army. They ..." she starts, but pauses. "They don't need my assistance now." Bob? It is not the first time Winter has...

Winter picks up some supplies on the way through the market. At the river, while someone sets up a camp fire, Winter forages around the area. Picking are a little slim given the proximity to town, but fresh. Having added what she can to see to lunch, Winter kick off her boots and wades into...

I know. Agreed. Which is why I was surprised to find I think I would use it in this situation. Maybe it is tied to that same impulse that leads us to have children - the desire to see something of ourselves survive us into the future. thotd

Which raised an interesting question for me: if you were on a ship about to be destroyed, and you had no other means of escape, would you use the Transporter? You:1 is going to die regardless. If you chose to use the transporter, you:1 would know that something of you survives, in a manner of...
