How to Play AToW YouTube Series Suggestions

[BiggRigg42]

Hi all,

I've taken down my old YouTube series over how to play AToW and have been replacing it with videos of a higher quality that are updated for the current printing. Here is a link to the playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLW4v4K6PB7qLTa-BQbf8qSxF3T_NSDVOV

If you have any suggestions for improvements or ideas for future videos, let me know.

Also, with my most recent video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hp7r6DJ5eTU&list=PLW4v4K6PB7qLTa-BQbf8qSxF3T_NSDVOV&index=4) over the current errata document, I discovered better settings in OBS, so my future videos will look even better.

Good luck with the project, and I'll try to have new content for you to work from this weekend!  :thumbsup:

Using the hit location rules, I did a playthrough of AToW. These rules are so much fun! I haven't seen anything like them in other RPGs. Do you know of any other RPGs with hit location rules?

GURPS uses hit location rules. I also try and convert every game background to GURPS that I can.  I Long for the day they update Vehicles to 4th Edition because that is by far one of my favorite RPG books among any system. Just designing stuff is fun.

I forgot GURPs had hit locations. I played in a GURPs campaign for a couple years, but we didn't use the hit location rules. I like GURPs.

All the Chart Master variants (Role Master, MERP, etc.) had hit location systems of varying degrees of ridiculousness...  :D

I think Palladium did too...

The Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy games had hit locations that were a D100 setup.

The fun way they did it is you first roll a D100 to see if you hit, and if you hit you reverse the numbers to figure out the location.

So if you rolled a 48 to-hit and were successful, then the location is 84.
