There's a few small differences. Hx was one of the major ones where now it's only your questions that fill in your values. Most of the major changes to moves are already included in the reference sheet so go with what's in those.

Things like Road War and Chases have been codified, as has things like starvation and psychic damage (d-harm and psi-harm). Oh, and we HAVE to spend 1-barter at the beginning of session (2 for the News) unless we're Hardholder or Maestro playbooks or explain who's covering for us (PC or NPC).

Are you using an old playbook? If so, here's the free extended playbooks.

There are alterations to some moves, while others remain the same. There's also paying for lifestyles, completely new battle moves, roadwar moves, and some other smaller things. Just get the 2E stuff for free on the website.

Sorry I'm a little behind. I've posted some Hx from other characters tonight. I'll post Pops Hx tomorrow and fill out some more info with some of the others.

I am thrilled with how the Hx stuff is going. Do you guys need anything particular from me? If so, feel free to let me know; I check this pretty regularly. I've got almost everything I need; I'm just piecing together a few more triangles so I can keep things all sorts of dicey.

Just some questions about the vehicles. I basically just made normal cars and stuck the work 'sky' or 'blimp' on them. Are the all going to be some sort of blimp, or are there hover cars as well?

There are hover cars as well; I'll assign anything with a massive over 2 as a zepplin, while anything of 1 or 2 as a hovercar. Motorcycle-types will either be jetbikes or some kind of bizarre ornithopter/wing suit/jetpack deal... Oh damn, that's actually pretty freaking cool. Yay for apocalyptica!

I'm glad to hear your enjoying watching our ideas bounce around.

So we're waiting for everyone to get the HX done before starting, yeah? I think I've responded to everyone's thread so far.

Anyone know BlueEyePaladin? They might not be subscribed to these forums or even know they exist, since they are new to the site.

Sorry, I somehow missed this entire set of threads! I've posted on everyone's Hx threads now, trying to catch up.
I'm liking the answers to our Hard Questions, not much to offer myself on that point. I think 'Killer''s more a consumer than he is involved in creation of resources, butwho knows what will come up?

Killer, check your PMs.
The only Hx I'm missing now is Pops. Who is still waiting on answers from me?

Got your PM. I think I've only given Hx to Lattice so far.

Oh yeah, what are we using for barter? I like the idea of playing-cards. Maybe part of Dremmer's power (aside from the gang and the treadmill-generators) is also that he has the printers and material to make the cards.

Cards as currency? It certainly puts a new spin on "making a deal"...

So we starting soon? :D

I sure hope so! I've been enjoying Hx, but I want to get started! My guess is Rindel's doing us some love letters, which I know can take a while!

You caught me, Paladin ;) Where do we want to choose who's stats are highlighted? Do we want a separate thread, or do we just want to post it on character pages?

Either character pages, or as the first responses we make when a Session (thread?) begins.

I agree, any time is fine. I'm ready for a bad Wealth roll to kick off the session!

I have 3 characters tied for highest Hx. Canary, Armstrong, Eddie whoever is first highlights my stat.

I'm not in love with the idea with the idea of playing cards as currency. I'm not in love with the idea of fiat currency. The by-the-book rule of abstract barter seems to work fine but if we're doing playing cards I'm definitely not in love with the idea of someone who can print money. Playing cards are old-world manufactured things which would be tough to duplicate, so they might be ok for currency. But coated plastic stock and digitally generated images with a printing press, ink, etc...? That's a hard pill for me to swallow. Unless that printing press and all of it's components are in the crosshairs session one, I'm skeptical. If I get downvoted to hell on this that's cool, I'll go along.
