Rule of 3s is always key!

I may not be a bad DM after all. Great advice to DM by.

Where do you want to go for dinner? offer 3 options!

Gustavo Campanelli

I love that in PBTA we have three options built in in some of the moves. This, for example, comes from masks. TAKE A POWERFUL BLOW When you take a powerful blow, roll + conditions marked. On a 10+, choose one: • you must remove yourself from the situation: flee, pass out, etc. • you lose control of yourself or your powers in a terrible way • two options from the 7-9 list On a 7-9, choose one: • you lash out verbally: provoke a teammate to foolhardy action or take advantage of your Influence to inflict a condition • you give ground; your opposition gets an opportunity • you struggle past the pain; mark two conditions On a miss, you stand strong. Mark potential as normal, and say how you weather the blow.

You're a legend. Giving such good advice in just 2 minutes when others take 30 minutes to say less.

You should mention the KS at the end too.

I’ve been avoiding it for these short videos because they’ll mostly be viewed after the Kickstarter ends.

It depends on the types of options but most of the time I state them directly: “at this point it appears you have three options…” and mention that they can bring up their own if they have them. Sometimes direct is the best way.
