There is now an official Draw Steel monster builder, THE BODY BANKS! Using the Codex tech. You can make your own monsters from scratch or just grab abilities from existing monsters! And I think it works...outside the Codex?? youtu.be/hpiF8t920d4?...

This one was a labour of love. I've spent a lot of time in this editor implementing content for Draw Steel so the redesign is an effort to address the things that tripped me up when I was getting started and common questions we get from users. I hope Codex users find this useful!

I've been reworking the Triggered Ability Editor in the #DrawSteel Codex by @hellomcdm.bsky.social and @dmhubvtt.bsky.social. The focus is on helping new users create triggers, get live feedback and test while editing. It went out in the last update, video below! www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bPd...

In addition to the Summoner and The Fall of Blackbottom, we have another treat for y'all on November 28tth, Black Friday! The Codex is the custom VTT for DRAW STEEL and Patrons and their players will be able to join the playtest TOMORROW! JOIN THE PATREON TO GET ACCESS!!! www.patreon.com/mcdm

Screenshot of the Codex, the fantastic virtual table top for DRAW STEEL, MCDM's new RPG. The screenshot captures the moment of starting combat, aka DRAWING STEEL, in the Delian Tomb, as the heroes begin their delve.

The room is lit from a brazier with pillars casting shadows. Heroes are arrayed against many goblins.

Many goblins will die to bring you these plans.

In less than an hour Draw Steel by @hellomcdm.bsky.social is releasing. I have spent countless hours playtesting since December 2023, given multiple of rounds of feedback, discussed rules and continue to test the Codex extensively. Reflecting on this and the imminent release has me quite emotional!
