[QUOTE="Manbearcat, post: 9247318, member: 6696971"] Hey John Lloyd1. The ones I've run are Apocalypse World, Dungeon World, Stonetop, Masks, Monsterhearts, Thousand Arrows, and Lazers & Feelings. The only two on that list that don't have a form of Fronts is Thousand Arrows and Lazers & Feelings. L&F because its basically a megalite one-shot version of PBtA which is Star Trek in theme. Thousand Arrows, I don't have an answer for. Its Sengoku Era/Warring States Japan. Its bloody awesome, but it doesn't use a form of Fronts...which is rather inexplicable to me because the game is basically built for it. However, it does have an Alliance system (which does some of the key work that Fronts would do) + a Faction subsystem + enough of a Strategic layer + the game's core loop which, with a GM that already knows AW well, can basically resolve play as if Fronts were present. Blades in the Dark also has its own version of Fronts except its instantiated for the particulars of that game. The snowballing action resolution and the core structure of moves + the bright, bold lines of PC thematic material + the individual game's beefy premise + the structure and ethos of GMing which "follows player breadcrumbs" (along witht he core premise of the game + the individual game's advancement/reward cycles which incentivize player's pushing hard toward their thematic goals and poking at the game's premise.
