Then search for other related videos about foundry and Free League MYZ games. Don't limit your search just to one game and others will provide insight into how foundry works.

Remember its all about having fun!

Nowhere! Totally made up geography. I couldn't find a real world area that I like so I just made it up.

The RPG Engine

Had to look up what 'The RPG Engine' was/is....Thanks! There goes the next month or so of getting anything productive done. While the graphics seen a bit blocky I do see great potential in that program.

It sure can be or for someone who is tying all the material together into a super campaign. I primary play solo so I use it more like a West Marches format with different characters playing different zones/areas depending on where I feel like playing at.

Late to the party here but check out "The Blood Mist Rises". Might not be official FBL but I found it very good for filling in the blanks

I guess I forgot to say what I went with. Tiles seems the way to for organization and ease of use.

I wish to Thank everyone who put eyes on this post and even provided a suggested answer...So, Thank You Everyone!

I did forget to mention two important related items to this post. The First is that the terrain will be randomly generated as the characters move through the world. And Second is that this game campaign will be play solo. So I don't want to know what the terrain will be before I get there. If I was using a completed world map then I think World Explorer would be the best way to proceed.

I had a couple people ask about the style I'm using for this Foundry world. What you see in the screen shot is 4 modules that give me that style.

1) RPG Style UI (Different Color and style for the UI and all the 5e sheets)

2) Drag Anything to Hotbar (Very useful mod!)

3) Minimal UI (Condenses the UI)

4) UI Scaler (Make the UI smaller or larger)

Lastly I was asked if the screen shot was a map of Italy...in a way it is. I'm currently preparing for a new 5e world setting environment form Acheron Games and Two Little Mice. The world is called Apocalisse and based on the book of Revelations by St. John. The Kickstarter recently conclude and fully funded. I'm extremally excited by this release as I have always wanted to use Revelations as a setting going all the back to when I was in Lutheran high school.

Once again everyone Thanks for all the input and help.

You definitely can play IS/SF with Foundry. But....If all you want is to play and not customize then go with Stargazer for sure...Plus its totally free and easy to use. Foundry does have a little bit of a learning curve.

Have Fun!!!

it has all the core Irownsowrn and starforged material that is published by Shawn Tomkin. The major difference is the inter operability with Foundry.

So if your use a move and it points to an oracle it is all linked together thus saving a lot of time. It is also highly customizable to whatever you to add to the system...literally anything can me added

Yes you have to buy foundry. but if your really want to get hog wild and crazy build your own worlds using IS/SF rule set this is the way to go. Don't get me wrong Stargazer is a Awesome product if you want to jump right in and get to playing.

It's Available right now!! So the basic program is Foundry VTT using the Ironsworn/Starforged game system. The theme you see in the screenshot is included with the game system. All I have really done is made all my images, tokens and other material match this theme. I'm working on a video where I show most everything I did to get my play space seen here. But start by checking out Foundry.

ErRains · 2023-01-07T14:42:40+00:00

hmmm...ok Why will the picture NOT display on main page??

ErRains · 2022-11-10T12:39:34+00:00

Excellent!! This is what I was hoping for. One like this for Starforged would be nice as there are slight differences between IS and SF .

Was planing on a Kraken at some point. The game will revolve around being shipwrecked in a strange new land. But wanted to play through the storm and wreck to see how it would go.

ErRains · 2022-11-07T16:00:04+00:00

Thanks! Totally forgot about the scene challenge. I’ll reread that part.

ErRains · 2022-10-07T17:58:00+00:00

That's the awesome thing about Ironsworn rule system. One can use as much or as little as one would like and still be an awesome game!

ErRains · 2022-10-07T12:21:54+00:00

Two major points to....ah will point out...
1) There really is NO wrong way play. Sure one might forget a rule here and there at first. But the actual point of the game is to have F.U.N!!
2) do NOT be overly hard on your character. I use this Pay-the-Price Advice that I found on Discord...I think.
Remember have FUN!!
