4 4 IRON HEROES INTRODUCTION: Action Fantasy! Welcome to Iron Heroes, a variant player s handbook. This book takes the basic rules you already know and introduces a set of expansions designed to promote a different style of play. Iron Heroes focuses on action and adventure. Your character s talents and abilities, rather than his equipment, determine his capabilities. Magic in Iron Heroes is a dangerous force, one that is as likely to harm its user as his enemies. Before you get started with the rules, this introduction gives you an overview of what you can expect from this book. WHAT IS THIS BOOK? Iron Heroes is a handbook for people who want to play a fantasy roleplaying game. It contains all the information you need to create a character, fight foes, and play out adventures. Although this book is a stand-alone work, you can use it alongside other player s handbooks, mixing and matching the races, classes, skills, feats, spells, and even some of the rules, if you wish. This book expands your available roleplaying options dramatically. It should be noted that this book is intended for those who have already played roleplaying games in the past. Beginners looking for a simplistic, tutorial-style game book should look elsewhere. This is an advanced rulebook. Here s what you ll find in each chapter of Iron Heroes: Chapter One: Abilities. This chapter contains all you need to know about Strength, Intelligence, and a character s other abilities, plus how to generate them for your character. Chapter Two: Traits. Iron Heroes player characters (PCs) are defined by their traits rather than a specific race. A tall warrior from the northern, arctic wastelands has different traits than a lithe, scimitar-wielding horseman of the desert. The trait system allows you to define your character s physical and mental attributes with superior precision. Chapter Three: Character Classes. From the deadly executioner to the dauntless armiger, the 10 character classes in Iron Heroes present you with a set of heroic templates that you can customize with the innovative new feat system. Chapter Four: Skills and Ability Checks. Danger and combat are the meat and drink of a heroic warrior, and as such the core skills receive new rules that cover their use in such situations. Chapter Five: Feats. More than simple abilities, the new rules for mastery, feat categories, and descriptors bring unparalleled flexibility, excitement, and customization to the game. Chapter Six: Roleplaying Iron Heroes. This chapter covers guidelines on creating your character s personality, background, and the nonrule qualities that make him interesting. It also presents brief notes on a typical Iron Heroes campaign setting. Chapter Seven: Equipment. This chapter gives you new types of weapons and armor, plus all the basics. Chapter Eight: Combat. The core structure of the game remains familiar to established roleplayers, with a few variant twists for experienced players or for those who simply want to take advantage of advanced development of the rules. Of special interest are challenge and stunt systems that allow players to accomplish amazing tasks. Chapter Nine: Adventuring. This chapter includes many of the basic rules needed for a variety of adventuring situations, from determining how much equipment you can carry to keeping track of how much light a torch casts over an area. Chapter Ten: Magic. Magic exists in Iron Heroes, but don t rely on it to save the day. There are no formulaic spells. Instead, casters summon magical energy, attempt to shape it to their desire, and unleash it upon the world. Sometimes a spell works perfectly. Most of the time, it causes as many problems as it solves.
5 INTRODUCTION: ACTION FANTASY! 5 Appendix. Finally, the appendix offers suggestions for DMs to mix and match Iron Heroes rules with standard d20 System rules and provides additional gamemastering tips. The rules in this book are entirely compatible with other fantasy roleplaying supplements you might own. In most cases, these rules remain the same as those in games compatible with the d20 System, although various sections of this book discuss some changes you need to learn. While Iron Heroes contains all you need to play the game, you will find mentions of some basic game concepts (such as certain conditions or specific magic items) explained more fully in the DMG. You will also read some references to monsters found in the MM. Bonus source material and ideas to augment the information in Iron Heroes appear online at < This rulebook is protected content except for items specifically called out as Open Game Content on the title page. For full details, please turn to page 254. Open content is not otherwise marked in the text of this book. COMBAT: OPTIONS AND CHOICES Iron Heroes focuses on fantasy action and adventure. As such, combat plays an important role in the system. At its core, combat works the same as in the core rules. Initiative, critical hits, attack rolls, and saving throws remain unchanged. Some portions of the rules, such as attacks of opportunity, appear here in simplified forms. In most cases, the changes simply add to the game system rather than truly alter how things work. The Iron Heroes combat rules and, by extension, character classes and feats are designed with the idea that options and choices make a game fun. While you can simply charge into a fight and hack at an opponent, Iron Heroes supports a variety of styles. It does this in a number of ways. First, combat challenges are additional benefits you can apply to an attack in return for a penalty on your roll. You can also accept penalties to your defensive abilities in return for other benefits. For example, you can take a penalty to an attack for the chance to force your opponent to move away from you. In this case, you make a wild, powerful swing that knocks your target backward if you hit. If you accept a penalty to your defenses, you can go on the offensive to gain a bonus to attacks and damage. These challenges allow you to weigh the benefits and drawbacks of an aggressive attack or a passive defense. If a foe is near defeat, you can cast aside caution and throw everything into an attack to finish him off. When the battle goes against you, just dig in, defend yourself, and wait for allies to rescue you. The challenges are open to everyone; you do not need any special abilities or feats to use them.
6 6 IRON HEROES The rules for stunts give you the tools to cover a wide range of actions beyond the scope of the standard combat rules. Stunts are effect based, which means you first figure out the stunt s result in game terms, then build a description around it. When you attempt a stunt, you make a skill or ability check. The total result of the check determines your stunt s effectiveness. You can use stunts to gain a bonus to attacks and damage, inflict a penalty to an opponent s actions, knock a foe prone, and other benefits. In essence, stunts are free-form actions that aid your attack actions. Defense, a measure of your ability to dodge and parry blows, replaces Armor Class. Armor in Iron Heroes provides you with damage reduction, the ability to reduce the damage you suffer from an attack. Your defense bonus measures your ability to avoid your opponent s attacks. Like your base attack bonus, it increases with level. Also like the attack bonus, it increases at a rate determined by your class focus on defense, speed, and agility. This change has two important effects on the game. Touch attacks become less of a sure thing, since most characters are now much better at avoiding attacks. On the other hand, being caught flat footed is a recipe for disaster. When you aren t on your guard, you lose your class defense bonus. Thus, it pays to keep active watch for hidden enemies and stay alert. Combat in Iron Heroes is designed to bring out your creativity. It offers you more options than in other games, so approach it with a creative flair that leads you to take actions you might never have considered before. CHARACTER CLASSES The character classes in Iron Heroes each embody a particular style of fighting rather than professions or roles. They are intentionally divorced from any tight connections to a specific ethos, culture, or organization. Instead, they form distinct sets of tools that your character uses to interact with the world. A thief is a clever trickster who thrives on deception. The berserker fuels his attacks with his inner fury. The harrier dashes across the battlefield, dodging and tumbling past enemies with deadly, elegant speed. Choosing a class is a matter of finding the fighting style that suits your taste. Many of the classes use token pools to reflect their talents. Tokens encourage you to embrace your class favored tactics. When you follow these tactics, you build up tokens that you can spend to activate special abilities. Think of the tokens as an abstract method of representing a combination of maneuvers that yields a result greater than the sum of its parts. For example, the parry token pool allows you to build up tokens when an opponent attacks and misses you. This represents your ability to turn aside blows and set up a foe for a devastating counterattack by knocking his weapon aside or luring him into overextending himself. As you evade more attacks, you can take greater advantage of your opponent s frustration and increasingly risky attacks. Character classes in Iron Heroes have a few other distinctive features as well. They have much better saving throws than classes from other games, and their base attack bonuses and skill ranks are higher than normal, too. Iron Heroes characters have far more hit points, plus they have about twice as many feats as the average character from other games. With these advantages, you might expect that Iron Heroes classes are far more powerful than classes from other fantasy games. In some ways,
