Has the worlds without master zine ended?
Has the worlds without master zine ended? I haven’t seen a new one in almost a year. I was hoping to see a better laid out swords without master book at some point.
This is pretty epic.

Hi folks, I've finished my read-through over at rpgg.
Hi folks, I've finished my read-through over at rpgg. I don't think I'll continue through the Advanced Game chapter because I don't wanna spoil it for myself before playing!
Any vets here who have graduated onto elements of the Advanced Game feel like commenting over there please do! I guess what we're looking for are things like tips/tricks. What's a good idea to ease into, etc.

Here is our game from the first day of Gauntlet Con. I had a blast while teaching the game to some new players.

* New dice graphics!!! Jesse Ross graciously created amazing SVGs for all of the dice (including all the DCC funky dice!)
* Jesse also created a new token image as well - now when you double click it a black circle shows on it instead of it turning white. (Though there is a checkbox to do the white token thing if you want.)
* The color of the arbitrary-size dice (XdY) will now match the rest of the dice.
* Fixed a bug where sizing for added images wasn’t respected.

Well, I've got a question prior to my first game.
Well, I've got a question prior to my first game.
How can I play a meeting between Rogues and a NPC (let's say a merchant-prince with whom they have kind of a debt) ? There's no such thing as a "Dialog Phase", but how would you play it ? Is there out of the scope of Swords without master ? Or could a Perilous Phase be structured around a dialog (with a menace as the Thunder ?)

Bonjour les Aventuriers ! Oups, sorry, pardon my french ^^.

I'm a french gamer, and I will soon host some games at a convention (Utopiales @Nantes). So I'm preparing Rogues in order to jump right into the adventure. You can see them on my blog. I stole some Simulacras here, other elsewhere.
The process of creating a Rogue is very entertaining and rewarding for a creative mind. Just for that, thank you !

Morning Rogues!
Morning Rogues!
Alas, I will not be able to attend #SundayAMSwords today as I must venture about in this corporeal world. Carry on without me and perhaps next week!

* Clocks!!! For all you fans of countdown clocks (I’m looking at you scoundrels skulking around in the dark!) we’ve got 4/6/8/threat clocks - give them a title and then double-click (ie reroll) to advance them and long press to decrement them.
* Speaking of rerolling… If you hold down shift while selecting things it will prevent you from accidentally rerolling anything.
* Even more rerolling news: the button is now green! (I got feedback that people didn’t use it because they didn’t notice it.)
* Added a visible count of the tokens out on the “table.”

Sunday Morning Swords: 8 October 2017
Sunday Morning Swords: 8 October 2017
#RainyMorningEdition
Good morning!
Here's our organizational thread for #SundayAMSwords. All are welcome regardless of familiarity with the game! Comment below if you're interested in playing this morning and mention if you're comfortable being an Overplayer and whether or not you have play Swords before.
When folks get an Overplayer and three or four Rogue Players, those players will run off and start their hangout. For now, let's focus on getting everyone into a group. Folks will probably wait until 9:30 EDT to start the last group. If you can't make that, check back in a few hours—this week I will be personally playing around 9 PDT, or noon EDT.
Use the hashtag #SundayAMSwords should you desire to chat about your game on the social medias. And bring your breakfast or brunch. Adventurers need their sustenance! And coffee.
P.S. Got some tips on how to do this and links to useful files here: http://www.worldswithoutmaster.com/blog/2014/7/14/sunday-morning-swords

Hi folks

Hi folks ! I'm preparing to run Swords Without Master in a Conv in a month. I've made up a "Tone Card" that you can see here. The Gloom one is being made (already exists in French, but thought it would be good in english too). Goal is to have such card being flipped during the game, with the Inspiration Words for the Tone visible for all players.
As I'm playing with the French version, I may have forgotten some relevant words, or added some not so correct. You can participate in updating the list.
I'll try a print soon to see if the colors are correctly rendered. The final file should be available on DTRP at the cost of PWYW.
EDIT : now on DTRPG - http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/223233/Glum-Jovial-Tone-Cards

Folks!
Folks! I've overslept, but if enough folks respond to this abrupt #SundayAMSwords thread before 9:30 AM EDT, I'll drag my ass out of bed to Overplay.
(And if enough respond to play without me, I might get a couple more Zs.)
