Drive a Combat Mech in Ironsworn: Starforged!

This supplement adds in a new resource (wealth) and customizable mechs that you can continue to upgrade as you play.  Inside you'll find:

  • New World Truths
  • Two new assets (Mech Printer and Wealth Management)
  • Four mech chassis with their own abilities
  • Weapons, armor, sensor, and utility modules for mechs
You also get mech character sheets, print n' play asset cards, PNG files of the cards for uploading to your favorite VTT.

Using Mecha Mercs for Other RPGs

First of all, if you're not playing Shawn Tomkin's Ironsworn: Starforged game, what are you waiting for?!  It's a great game that has all the drivers you need to make excellent sci-fi stories with just the right amount of grit.  Not only is the final Kickstarter version available right now digitally, but the physical version will be on sale soon as well.

As great as Starforged is, you could also use the ideas for mechs included here for almost any other gritty, sci-fi system or setting.  That being said, a more narrative-based system would work best if you are porting this over to another game system.

Hey Eric. Awesome work. Just noticed a mistake in the World Truths section: (pg 11)

Under the "Role of Mercenaries" truth, the first result's description is a copy-paste of the first result from the "Mech Builds" truth description.

"Building a mech is a labor of love because of how unique each one is which makes it difficult to repair and maintain them. Every piece of the machine is custom built and takes a skilled mechanic or engineer to design, test, and install."

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
