Love this and how it's divvied up too 😍

Thank you!!

I feel like players can help out by giving specificity to the way they want to achieve their action as well. As a GM, it's a lot easier to imagine how something goes wrong if you can picture the details of how it's being attempted. It helps as flavour too!

This is why Apocalypse World and other PbtAs come with a GM Moves list, usually on reference sheet. If anything, moves lists were one of PbtA’s best innovations.

My last two games have benefits/drawbacks table based on the range of success/loss on a test. I like how it plays ie losing gear instead of taking damage/status effect forcing a foe to reveal a secret instead of them being shoved back or hit.

Consequences are such a stumbling block for GMs. I've seen a number of pages made to fulfill a similar function, but this might be my favorite, it's concise and broken down into different situations.

The complications from @penflower-ink.bsky.social 's Stravagante are very nice!

I have definitely struggled at the table with success with consequences unless the game has lots of outputs for them.

With games with things like exposure or relation levels with other groups that hasn't been too bad.

This list is fantastic! Def saving. I've never heard of Stoneburner, the name's badass
