Behold another page in THE DUNGEON BOOK!

While my son took a nap I sailed to Calypso Island and descended into the “Tomb of Faces” in the guise of my dungeoneer Murkstav.

The entire dungeon took about 30 minutes!

Pass it on & spread the word! The finished version is released!

Ironsworn, the free RPG of perilous quests, is now officially released! I want to offer a huge thanks to everyone who supported and participated in the development of Ironsworn through dozens of preview releases since April 2017.

The digital edition and print edition are available now at DriveThruRPG (http://bit.ly/ironsworn). Please leave a rating or review while you are there!

Or, download directly from ironswornrpg.com.

What is Ironsworn?

In the Ironsworn tabletop roleplaying game, you are a hero sworn to undertake perilous quests in the dark fantasy setting of the Ironlands. You will explore untracked wilds, fight desperate battles, forge bonds with isolated communities, and reveal the secrets of this harsh land.

There are three ways to play:

Guided: One or more players take the role of their characters, while a gamemaster (GM) moderates the session.

Co-Op: You and one or more friends play together to overcome challenges and complete quests. No GM required.

Solo: You portray a lone character driven to fulfill vows in a dangerous world. Good luck!

What’s Next

This is a major milestone in my Ironsworn quest, but the journey is not yet complete. Here is some of what is planned:

– New assets (Volume 2 will be out soon)

– Print-on-demand asset cards

– Ironsworn SRD: The Ironsworn mechanics under an open Creative Commons license.

– Ironsworn Sanctuary (working title): In this expansion for Ironsworn, you will establish and manage an Ironlands settlement. Will your community survive the long, dark winter? What threats will it face? What price will you pay to protect it?

– Ironsworn Frontiers: New worlds and genres for the Ironsworn system.

I continued my FR/Undermountain game. Some nice encounters. I use red dice for the enemies and GM rolls and I roll damage with the attack roll. That nat 20 crit for max damage nearly killed me, but I made short work of the gnolls. When running large battles I only zoom in on the action of my PC and use my result as an indication for the overall battle. So in the gnoll encounter I was fighting two of seven gnolls and the other NPCs fought the other gnolls “of camera”. I might promote an NPC to a companion and run them myself later (looking at you Vanessa…).

Curious if anybody has experience playing these games solo?:

Masks (the superhero PbtA one)

Nights Black Agents

Vampire: The Masquerade 20th Anniversary Edition

Chronicles of Darkness

I own the first two; don’t own the last two. My play-style is one PC in the spotlight and any “teammates” are just NPC minions or a simply not utilized.

Any thoughts, recommendations, or tips would be much appreciated.
