The Brainer VS The Brain-Picker (Apocalypse World 2e/3e) with the Bakers

Dice Exploder

About this episode

Transcripts available at diceexploder.com

Apocalypse World 3rd edition is on Kickstarter right now. In many ways, it hasn’t changed much. In many ways, it's a whole new apocalypse. So I thought it'd be fun to have on the Bakers and go through a playbook - the Brainer in 2e vs its equivalent the Brain-Picker in 3e - and ask them about every single change on the sheet, from updating the basic moves all the way down to a single name on a single picklist.
