The Ironsmith products are a line of fan-made supplements (unofficial) for the original Ironsworn game by Shawn Tomkin. Ironsworn is a PbtA adjacent game with a fantastic core mechanic of making a move and rolling to compare your action die (d6) plus a stat bonus to two separate challenge dice (2d10) where beating both challenge dice gives you a strong hit, beating only one gives a weak hit, and not beating either gives a miss. Not only is it truly my favorite RPG of all time, Shawn is one of the best human beings on the planet with a generous license for third-party creators like me.
For my Ironsmith products, I tried to add more options to the existing rules rather than expand the game in most cases. The game is awesome how it is! I just added a little more depth of options in a few spots. You can check out my Ironsmith products on DriveThruRPG which include:
