“Also, literally every fuckin’ thing is a Threat.” I think this is consistent with first edition, but maybe explained more clearly. In 1st Ed. everything is a threat (including the PCs friends and sidekicks) until you get the 10+ moves that let you change that. (If you know that already ignore this paragraph)

I feel you on prep being easier. I haven’t tried it yet but just looking at it felt more clear. I really ought to bring this to a table again soon.
