Work continues on Stonetop, my "hearth-fantasy" adaptation of Dungeon World set in an iron age that never was, in which you portray the local heroes of a small, isolated village near the edge of the known world. It's going more slowly than I'd like, but we just added the "Playing Stonetop" chapter to the main book, and I'm quite pleased with it. This...

"Did you hear that? It sounds like... click bait!" Strong personal opinion: Take Watch is a bad move. You don't need it. Dungeon World doesn't need it.
