Just a tip for Windows 10 Users listening to this, you can turn Mono audio on under the Windows Audio settings (just type Mono in the start menu and it will pull that option up). Audio was corrected after the first three episodes were recorded.

I'm currently on my second time through this series. The entire presentation is utterly entertaining and inspiring! Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your time and imagination!
I like Griff. He immediately reminded me of the beat up robot in The Black Hole. If you remember him? And leather jacket and satchel... you might be playing Indiana Jones! 😉Between Ironforged and Starforged, I think I could quite happily get rid of my other SF and fantasy RPGs. They really are both that good. Really well done video, new subscriber here; keep up the great work!
Thanks so much for watching and welcome aboard! I’m not familiar with The Black Hole, but I can tell you that Griff is a mixture of the robots from Silent Running and my dog.
Pledged for it and already made a character. Valda ‘Straggler’ Shin, a explorer that gave up her past life as militia to seek the secrets of the forge. The game is looking great so far.
dang.. just late pledged on the Kickstarter and found it awesome. Always loved Ironsworn but am - these days - more of a science fiction type of guy.. I scroll RU-vid and what do I find? This awesome series, really looking forward, to see, how it progresses. Thumbs up and sub are a given :) Keep rocking the space
Very much enjoying. Just wanted to share that the sound is only in the left channel. I am deaf in my left ear, thus had to adjust my system to listen to it. Not sure if many people care - but I thought I would let you know.
Thank you for watching and welcome to the channel! As you may have already discovered, the audio was recorded and mixed in mono for both Session Zero episodes and the first episode of the campaign. There all went up together and I realised my error! All episodes after this have the correct audio mix!
@@thebadspot have you thought of doing a tutorial video for newer players? I struggle getting the detail and ideas that you and all of streamers get. My stories tend to be very basic or I rip a lot off from movies and stuff.
I just found this channel wow I loved the first episode. I just need to wrap up a dungeon I'm in with four against darkness and then I can prepare a story for Ironsworn
That’s awesome! You’ve got 3 seasons of Starforged to enjoy and also I’ve posted a whole bunch of how to videos for new players. Hopefully you’ll find some help if you need it!
Is there a supplement that gives you more choices for your truths? Also, having never played yet, you can merely pick what your truths are right, instead of rolling?
Hi there! Yes you absolutely can choose rather than roll, or even make up your own. As far as I know there isn’t a supplement specifically for truths, but maybe someone made one as part of one of the recent Ironsworn jams.
Hello there and thanks for watching! I’ve had a few requested for an audio only version and I think that when this season ends I will probably upload the whole lot all at once.
Thanks for watching! This is certainly a popular request and one I shall definitely get to. I have a mid-season break coming up where I’ll look to get on that.
They don't, the standard 3. 2. 2, 1, 1 stat array remains. I, however am using the Challenging stat array introduced in the Lodestar supplement. I did this to make it slightly less punishing as I'm playing through solo.
Spending 45 minutes making a character who dies in 5 minutes? Sounds like something any player of _Traveller_ might be familiar with! (Actually, in _Traveller_ they often die within those 45 minutes) 😂
Hehe! After talking about a character best described as an Indiana Jones in space, he then proclaims "but he's not going to be an Indiana Jones in space." 😃 Also, I guess starting stats have changed since the current rules say 3 2 2 1 1 instead of 4 3 3 2 2.
Hey there! The rules haven't changed, I explain in the video that I'm using the Challenging Stat Array that was first featured in the Lodestar supplement for the original Ironsworn. As I'm playing solo and the aim is to produce the most entertaining campaign I can, I wanted to give myself a bit more of a chance of living past a few episodes! Thanks for watching!
Just bought this today and it will be my first rpg of this genre as I’m relying on a lot of my own creativity. I have never done that and it will be struggle for sure but exciting at the same time. Love your videos on this and should definitely help me learn this massive game system. I have the original Ironsworn as well and plan on playing that as well but this one just caught my imagination big time!!
Just stopping in to say that I'm looking forward to listening! I backed the Kickstarter, and have had the book and other materials for a bit now, but haven't tried to play yet. I'm excited to give it a shot!
It’s quite likely. This show was initially made using the pre-release version that went through many changes before it went to print. Thanks for watching!
I wanted to name our 2nd son Archer (here in the US South, Archer, Shooter, Hunter, aren't unheard of), but my wife disagreed. So we agreed to use Archer as his middle name. Great presentation, by the way. I've been considering 'tubing some Ironsworn or Starforged and your method works well.
Thanks for watching! Glad you like the presentation. I’m trying to do something a bit different and I’m glad it’s connecting. Let me know if you get a channel up and running, the world needs more Ironsworn!
This is great. I really love this video. Stumbled upon the how to play, and came here to hear about session 0. Really happy to see how it's all put together. Can't wait to start playing myself and hopefully bring others!
Me: I really like the option to have animal companions and I really want one! Also me: nah! Done it before, and it’s never a good idea to get attached to something that will die in a few hours? me: but theres a Rhyno, and a glowing cat, and a dinossaur! Also Me: but I made up my mind! I’m not gona get a pet this time! Me: ok, maybe not a pet, but an instrument, a caterpillar toaster that flies! Yes! That’s it! Let’s give it a name so that I don’t get attached, how about Griff? 🤭 I rofl real hard!
Yes, the tables for generating everything from planets to lifeforms are amazing, so its really unnesesary for them to include pre existing creatures like the rhino thing, a flying mount and a emotion reading cat in the assets as i will never use them because i want to create creatures from scratch. 3 assets that im gonna need to rewrite completly or just dont allow them in the game.
Hey there, thanks for watching! Not every asset is for every game. I like having the rockhorn, glowcat and voidglider as an idea of what sorts of creatures you could generate and use in game. I know some people feel the same about the section starters, but it's amazing how an asset that would never see the light of day in my game would be central to someone else's. Plenty of options!
I want to go home and play! Few more hours yet. I also think that callsigns are less what your character calls themselves and more what they get labelled.
Thanks for watching! You can find Part 2 here: Ironsworn: Starforged | Session Zero (Part 2) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XPQ_Oj0HRAY.html
The bad spot: I will leave myself at the whim of the dice Also the bad spot when he rolls magic and ai: I don't want neither to be like written, so i will ignore it and home rule it has i want it
@@thebadspot being a bit further ahead in the series now , was the first time dice were ignored, but not the last, still a fun time, getting ever curious to see the second season when i get there
