Worldbidding version 1.1


After playing the game in a Discord server for a month, I have spent some time polishing and expanding Worldbidding. 

The largest change is the addition of a completely new type of move, Initiatives, that you can use on your turn alongside Change Orders and Expansions. 

Other large changes:

  • The number of Expansions has roughly doubled, and they bring more ways to do more jobs on a turn. 
  • Reputation has been made more relevant. 
  • The "Spin" change order has been thoroughly revamped, since it turns out it was sorta... useless. 
  • The play-by-post variant rules have been expanded and now reflect actual play a lot better. 

On the files front, I added a dark mode file (I know I sure didn't like looking at a glaring white .pdf) and also put reference of just the turn actions for quicker reference. No more scrolling around the file to find them.

Hopefully this improves your Worldbidding experience. 


Full Changelog: 

  • Players can bid on a number of contracts up to their Reputation (minimum of 1), to a maximum of 10.
  • "Spin" Change Order now affects all dice of a chosen result for the cost of 1 Reputation. Spin dice cannot by used for Artistry rolls. 
  • Added a codified method of removing contracts from the pool.
  • Clarified that you can still bid on and win contracts if you continued a contract from last turn.
  • Acknowledged that the number, scope, and offer of contracts will need to evolve as the game progresses, with a suggested timeline.
