[QUOTE="Reynard, post: 8701551, member: 467"] I will try one more time to explain myself. I am talking about "suffer harm" not the move "Inflict harm (as established)". This is the passage I am referring to, from page 206 of AW2E under the heading "The Harm Moves": ---------- [I]When you [U]suffer harm[/U], roll+harm suffered (after armor, if you’re wearing any). On a 10+, the MC [B]can[/B] choose 1: • You’re out of action: unconscious, trapped, incoherent or panicked. • It’s worse than it seemed. Take an additional 1-harm. • Choose 2 from the 7–9 list below. On a 7–9, the MC [B]can[/B] choose 1: • You lose your footing. • You lose your grip on whatever you’re holding. • You lose track of someone or something you’re attending to. • You miss noticing something important. On a miss, the MC [B]can[/B] nevertheless choose something from the 7–9 list above. If she does, though, it’s instead of some of the harm you’re suffering, so you take -1 harm.[/I] The suffering harm move adds a wrinkle, a little unpredictability, to the baseline of harm above. ---------- It appears this is optional by the text, so I was asking for insight on when to use it versus not.
