Ironsworn: Starforged - Deluxe Edition Rulebook

The Sci-Fi Evolution of the Ironsworn RPG is Here!

In Ironsworn: Starforged, you are a spaceborne hero sworn to undertake perilous quests. You will explore uncharted space, unravel the secrets of a mysterious galaxy, and build bonds with those you meet on your travels. Most importantly, you will swear iron vows and see them fulfilled—no matter the cost.

Starforged is a standalone follow-up to the Ironsworn tabletop roleplaying game. Experience with Ironsworn is not required. Starforged builds on Ironsworn's award-winning innovations (including its famed solo play!) to chart a path into an exciting new frontier.

THREE WAYS TO PLAY

• Guided: One or more players take the role of their characters, while a guide moderates the session.
• Co-Op: You and one or more friends play to overcome challenges and complete quests.  No guide required.
• Solo: You portray a lone character driven to fulfill vows in a dangerous galaxy. Good luck!

WHAT'S INCLUDED

• Story-driven mechanics to put your character at the center of their quest-driven adventures.
• Inspiring campaign launch exercises to build your setting, create your character, and set off into a universe of perils and opportunities.
• Creative prompts to eliminate game prep and push your adventures forward—with or without a guide.
• System-agnostic generators and random tables for planets, settlements, people, creatures, starships, foreboding derelicts, ancient alien vaults, and more.
• Extensive advice, examples, and options for exploring the story of your characters and their fateful vows.

WHAT'S NEW

Are you a returning Ironsworn player? Welcome back! I really appreciate your ongoing support. You'll find some changes and enhancements to suit the spacefaring setting, but the core of the game will be familiar. If you're new to the Ironsworn system, Starforged gives you everything you need to undertake quests in a perilous galaxy.

Here's some highlights of what's changed from core Ironsworn. 

• Board your starship: Travel through the galaxy in your interstellar ship, and customize it with support vehicles and modules.
• Build a legacy: An expanded experience system offers legacy rewards for quests, discoveries, and bonds.

• Keep flying: When you take a hit, use the damage and repair moves for your command ship, support vehicles, and mechanical companions.
• Ask the oracle: An incredible array of oracle tables to help inspire complications, opportunities, locations, people, settlements, creatures, starships, and more!
• Be who you want: More than 85 character assets for the sci-fi setting. If you loved Ironsworn's fast and flexible character creation, you'll find even more to love here.
