  1. I made a thing... "Pocket Starforged" lets you keep playing #Ironsworn #Starforged #soloRPG wherever you go!

    akavel.itch.io/pocket-starforg

    It's an unofficial #PrintAndPlay expansion that allows playing Ironsworn: Starforged *fully in-hand* (no table needed). I can literally carry it in my pocket and play while walking (tested, with joy!).

    The cards include all (!) the oracles available for playing a session (except only the ones for character creation), most of the moves, a character sheet, condition meters trackers, vow/expedition progress trackers, dice tables for random D10 & D6 rolls, and more!

    If you want an #offline, #nondigital detox alternative against browsing on your phone - or if you just love Starforged so much you want to play it in even more circumstances than what you thought possible before - this could be something to try.

  2. #ThisWeekAtMyTable my dnd game was cancelled again, so Wife, Kid, and I finished up the #IronswornStarforged adventure we started last week.

    We ended up having to rescue our smuggler contacts from the fortified bunker of a gang who had turned on them.

    My Weapon Master / Ace got into a firefight with a patrol on speeder bikes, and ended up hanging from his fingertips over a crevasse of boiling acid before managing to turn the tables and rescue the smuggler captain.

  3. #ThisWeekAtMyTable

    The #dnd5e game I usually run on Fridays was cancelled, so I broke out #IronswornStarforged with Wife and Kid.

    I had originally planned to play solo - since it's designed for that - but they both got interested when I started fiddling with sector/campaign creation.

    We got contacted by rebels fighting against a corrupt Authority to smuggle in medical supplies, so off to space we went, tangling with raiders and discovering a forbidden research complex.

  4. How to deal with setbacks in #Ironsworn and #IronswornStarforged? Shawn Tomkin the inventor gave this tip on Discord:

    >>Anything representing a situation that puts you at a disadvantage that worsens a situation, but doesn't force a hit to health/spirit, can (and should) ping your momentum track.

    I would lump a "narrative downbeat" as being more meaningful in a story sense. Something like "I get tackled to the ground in a fight" is a good excuse to lose momentum.<<

  5. Ich habe bisher wenig von Solo-Rollenspielen gehalten. Irgendwie nicht so mein Ding.

    Gestern Abend bin ich allerdings auf #Ironsworn und #IronswornStarforged gestoßen und neige dazu, meine Meinung zu ändern. Die Mechaniken scheinen auf den ersten Blick wirklich interessant zu sein und laden in der Tat zum Solo-Spiel ein. Welche Erfahrungen habt ihr mit den beiden Systemen gemacht? #pnpde

  6. You did back the #SunderedIsles expansion for #IronswornStarforged #TTRPG on Kickstarter already, right? You can add the excellent original Starforged books from a new print run to your pledge too. kickstarter.com/projects/shawn

  7. @muzzle @Yora @herrold @lextenebris

    You know the powers in the setting, what they want to do and how they do it.

    Clear obstacles that are in the PCs way. If something that ties into the above allowing you to build on unfolding events while keeping it coherent.

    Obstacles and problems that have solutions but none prescribed. Since you know they have solutions you can dole out the keys to them.

    Powers thwarted so they make new plans.

    Lots of random tables. I use from #IronswornStarforged

  8. So!! This is my iron valley character. I only got a little ways into it last night but decided I for sure needed a character appearance. You can find the character maker I used here: jazzybee.itch.io/sdvcharacterc

  9. @BenKramer you really can't #SciFi #RandomTable without #IronswornStarforged It's like the first two signed this when they married...

  10. I always like to see more praise for #IronswornStarforged #TTRPG:

    "...RPG texts are often trying to serve multiple purposes at the same time. They need to be a pedagogical text, a reference text, and something that inspires your imagination and makes you want to play. That’s hard to do in a single book (and it’s why Ironsworn Starforged works so well, because Shawn recognised this and produced multiple different texts aimed at doing all of these things separately)..."

  11. Very pleasant evening with @ryan setting up a new #IronswornStarforged campaign. Rolled up a sector and grandfathered in versions of our #EveOnline characters to play as. We have about ten years of gameplay and fanfiction backstory with those two, so we should be pretty solid!

    (I went and checked my email archives -- we started playing EVE with those characters in 2014!)

  12. There's a #TTRPG sale on #Ironsworn and #IronswornStarforged on #DriveThruRPG right now. They're awesome. I'm a huge fan of #Starforged and you should buy copies of them if you don't own them yet.

  13. Finally, a little downtime at summer camp with a beautiful view of the Chesapeake … and #IronswornStarforged.

  14. Redoing this since I messed up the formatting!
