So what's the sheet creation process from here? I remember seeing that Q had created a GP sheet, but it looks like there's also a form-fillable PPT or something?

Qralloq's sheet is nice*. If you want to use the Google Drawings sheet, here are links:
tibbius sent a note to Harrigan

*note that I hacked the combat rules, as mentioned in Game Details. So for AC it's 0 - 1 - 2 - 4 - 6, rather than 8 - 10 -12 - 14 - 16.

I set up a character sheet. We can mess with it, and get your feedback before we make it an official template.

Ah, thanks. I have to apologize -- work was relenting a little as I signed up for this game, but things have taken a sharp turn for the incredible busy. Hoping the weekend is okay to finish my PC? If not, start without me. I can step back if need be.

I don't mind waiting.
May 27, 2022 12:08 pm
You bet. My free time has vanished for the second half of this week too.
May 27, 2022 6:49 pm
no worries! This is play by post ... it's not like we're all fidgeting around a table, checking our phones as we wait on you.
May 27, 2022 7:20 pm
Some of us might be (I'm not talking about me either). Hahaha. S'all good in the hood. I just wanted to get my requested roll in.
May 29, 2022 4:43 pm
Alright, sorry again for the delay. Just submitted Ernesto the Sly, and there are some really neat bits to this system, which I've never even -heard- of before. It's not new, either!
May 29, 2022 4:44 pm
Will catch up and post IC today if given the a-ok on Ernesto. Let me know if anything needs to change on his sheet.
May 29, 2022 5:20 pm
Bem-vindo, Harrigan e Ernesto! I don't see anything needs to be changed.

I can't help feeling that Old School Hack, released in 2009, may have inspired the "playbooks" of Apocalypse World, released in 2010.

It has a ton of stuff in it, and on those sheets, that looks kind of like -- "hey, cool" in in 2022.

But in 2011, which is the V1.1 that I have... even the *layout* is progressive. It's good stuff. We'll see how it plays, though. ;)

(2009 is when it was first published?)

Around about then. I played it right when it was released. I can't remember how I set it up, but I had an RSS feed back then for a "simple DnD" Google search, and it popped on that.

Edit to add: Remember, I hacked the combat to run faster in play by post (no whiffs) - so it won't really be O.G. flavor.

Did you hack anything else other than the AC and opposed rolls / simultaneous damage? I'm an enormous fan of that in or out of PbP these days. See: Warlock!, Rangers of the Midden Vale, Troika!

Posting IC now.

The entire hack is in the Game Details. I made the Face Die cause double damage vs +1. Thinking about that more, I feel like maybe it should go back to +1. There's something to be said for the idea that Armor of Scars would make a stalwart fighter immune to be aced by even the heaviest of weapons swung in the most effective manner.
