Project Mission

The goal of this work is to digitize the game's documentation into markdown and expand on the below goals:

  • Add meta-data and dynamic queries to generate tables for game play rules and resources.
  • Use info boxes to break down key aspects of game play that can be collapsed and imported using linked block references.
  • Answer linger questions that are ambiguous from the game's source rules
  • Create templates that can be used for new campaign creation and gameplay functionality

The overall mission is to provide an alternative, easier to use, reference material for Ironsworn Starforged.
