Ironwrought

Ironwrought is a turn-based tactics RPG for 1–4 players, built on the rules of Draw Steel, MCDM's grid combat system. Play standalone encounters and full roguelike runs solo or in online or LAN co-op.

On your turn, pull a goblin away from its allies. Your friend can take it from there and drive it straight into a wall. Every hero controls their own turn, but the best moves belong to the whole party.

Each turn you get a Main Action, a Maneuver, and a Move, and the board decides what they're worth. Your Fury is two squares from a pack of goblins. You Move to close and swing. The power roll lands on tier 2, so the goblin takes damage and gets shoved three squares into the wall behind it, where the collision deals more.

That was one action. You still have a Maneuver, so you Aid Attack a second goblin pressing in, and your Shadow's next strike against it lands with an edge. One turn, three decisions. Then the goblins take theirs.

Every attack is a power roll: 2d10 plus a characteristic, read on a three-tier scale, so even a weak roll still does something. One roll sets both how hard you hit and how far you push.

The enemy has the same problem. Let a pack bunch up and a single area attack catches all of them at once.

Between runs you build and rebuild heroes in a character creator that lays out every available choice: ancestry, class and subclass, kit, characteristics, and abilities, all unlocked from day one.

• Every class plays differently. Each runs on its own heroic resource and demands a different style of play.
• Ancestries that reshape how your hero moves and fights.
• Push, pull, slide. Forced movement is in every class's toolkit. Shove an ogre off a cliff and it takes fall damage by the square.
• Play together online or over LAN. Up to four players can tackle standalone encounters and full roguelike runs as a shared party. Events and injuries carry from one fight to the next.
• Build your own encounters. A built-in level editor lets you design maps, place enemies, and play them immediately.
• Everything is moddable. Classes, ancestries, abilities, and encounters ship as plain JSON on disk that you can edit directly. The base game is itself a mod, and the in-game manager resolves dependencies.
• Draw Steel's core systems drive every fight: power rolls, edges and banes, heroic resources, the nine core conditions, villain actions, and victories. (Also titles!)
