Ironsworn G+ Archive

Just a random thought for the day... I just realized that it would take nothing to reskin Ironsworn as a Samurai game. You could if you wanted to rename a few things sword->Katana, giant->Oni, etc but really there is no reason that the Ironlands had to be colonized by not-samurai as by not-vikings. But really one could still use the word sword and see a katana, wakizashi or jian instead of an ulfberht. Samurai were concerned with promises and honor which maps well to iron vows. Even the available rituals work pretty much as is for a fantasy orient as well as they do for a northern European base. Nothing really to say there but that it occurred to me and I'm not seeing anything that would steer you wrong. Edit: I guess changing the name tables would be a thing but really what else would you have to modify.

Just wanted to mention that I have retooled that Excel sheet I was using for playing Ironsworn to use Google Sheets instead since those seem more popular here. I also found Josh McGowan's toolkit so added my adventure log to that and moved the die roller to a fixed row at the top of the History tab so that it is more conveniently placed for cut and pasting the results into the ongoing story. (Please make a copy to use for yourselves as otherwise everyone will be overwriting each other.) PS: the image button was not working on mobile devices, I have added a dropdown to activate the roll in the cell holding the button

I've made a Excel file with a character page including dice roller and a log page and played out a short session to see how it works. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1iz8UlAVWUwLvDkayOINye0wKFB5XMtSf
