Hello, I recently started up a limited-time campaign of MAG set in Era 2. I found it difficult to find resources for GMs and players outside of the books themselves, so I wanted to compile a thread to share resources and tips. The first thing I'd like to share is our Era 2 google sheets character sheet. I've found Google Sheets especially valuable for running play-by-post games as they work very well asynchronously. One of my players did the initial layout based on the sheet made by redditor u/Chocolatetreetoad. I added some validations to help people generate new characters to check their math and auto-calculate some fields. Set the strength of attributes and standings in cells A10 and D10 and it will display some validations on the attributes. These rows can be hidden after character generation. You might need to adjust the min/max validations on the individual fields if a character is koloss-blooded. Some other great resources I've found: System cheat sheet (currently missing alloy of law rules but we're going to try to update this as we go) (copied from this sheet by [email protected]) Crafty Games Discord - has active users and a mistborn games channel. SteelMinistry.com forums - now that the crafty games forums have given up the ghost this was the only dedicated forum I could find for discussing MAG, although it seems to be pretty much dead there is some archived content. Brief video tutorial by D20 Live Actual plays: Diceborn (also Podcast RSS feed here) - I probably don't have to mention this one around here but this is the 17th shard's campaign in era 2. A session zero recording is available to patrons. APGamingReal's Final Empire Campaign, "Ashfallen" including session zero (This was my introduction to MAG) APGamingReal's Alloy of Law Campaign including session zero Name Generators MAG-specific name generator General Mistborn Name Generators Crafty Games' Name Tables are on AoL p. 94 & MAG p. 105 Alternative Google sheets character sheet for Alloy of Law made by Mak in the Crafty Games Discord. Homebrew Stunts List by the members of the Craft Games Disrcord Once my game starts playing I think I will need to create more google sheets such as for NPCs and scheme worksheet. I will post those and any other useful resources I come across here. Feel free to share your own tips and resources for players or "Narrators" here!

Este é um dos meus primeiros tópicos e não sei se está no lugar certo, se coloquei na aba errada por favor me corrija. Alguma ideia de uma construção hemalúrgica para colocar em uma campanha MAG? Para adicionar monstros ao jogo fiz como se existisse um antigo culto de hemalurgia e ruína que vive fazendo experimentos, mas não em humanos e sim em animais. Então quando eu faço uma luta de chefe eu geralmente seleciono um pokémon aleatoriamente, tento recria-lo com hemalurgia e tomo-lo um pouco mais macabro, mas já estou nisso há algum tempo e estou ficando sem ideias, alguém tem algum? Solte a imaginação e crie os animais mais bizarros possíveis, por favor. Meu objetivo é ter um bestiário hemalúrgico completo um dia após esse tópico

I recently found and read the MAG Alloy of Law expansion, and a part of it confused me; Sliverism is described in the book as being like a secretive cult, but I had always imagined Sliverism to be more like a somewhat less popular and progressive version of Survivorism and the Path. So my question is, how accurate is the MAG material on this matter? Can I trust this to be canonical?

Hey everyone, over at steelministry.com I am starting up a new campaign. It's actually a re-run of a great Mistborn campaign I came up a few years ago which I have titled "Legends of Orulae." It takes place during the Final Empire era, and begins with the crew going along, doing their thing, when they catch wind that someone may have discovered the long lost city of Orulae, a legendary city which is said to be home to one of the greatest treasures of all time... The campaign is filled with adventure and explorations and is meant to have a very Indiana Jones type feel to it. Right now I have 3 players signed up and they're putting the finishing touches up on their characters. That is enough to get started, but I'm willing to let 1 or 2 more people join. If you're interested, reply and let me know and/or head on over to steelministry.com and create an account. The sign-up thread for the game can be found here.

Hey 17th Shard, I started myself on a bit of a lengthy project, converting the rules for Mistborn Adventure Game to the Dungeons and Dragons format, specifically, Fifth Edition, as it is the edition I am most familiar with. I've completed some rough drafts for most of the Allomantic powers, with the exception of Atium, Lerasium, Cerrobend, Cadmium, and the God-Metal alloys. I know for sure that they'll have to be revised a lot more, but to refresh my brain I decided to start thinking about some Feruchemical powers, specifically Feruchemical Gold, and I've run into a bit of a problem. In typical D&D play, as players advance from level 1 to level 20 they gain HP, and quite a lot of it. Generally at level 20 a character will have well over 15 times their level 1 HP. In typical MAG play, health doesn't change that much, with someone maybe doubling their health over the course of a long campaign. This is causing a bit of a problem with figuring out rules for Feruchemical Gold healing, especially Compounding. In MAG, restoring 6 HP via Compounding is always going to be a massive chunk of HP no matter what, because HP stays fairly consistent in MAG. I've already lined up some equivalents for damage in D&D versus MAG by comparing the weapon damages of items like daggers, clubs, and swords. +1 damage in MAG seems to be about 1d4 in terms of D&D. The easy solution, therefore, is to make the 6 HP restore of Feruchemical Gold equal to 6d4, which averages to around 15 HP restored. For a lower level character, up to level 5 or 6 (depending on class and physical scores), that's a comparable chunk of HP regeneration to how it's intended to be in MAG. As levels progress, however, it rapidly becomes a smaller and more negligible amount. Any ideas, folks? I have a couple, but since I'm diving more into homebrew and winging it here, rather than just converting distances and action economy to 5e terms, I'd like some external input. Also, I'm assuming posting my conversions here would be frowned upon because in this early rough draft stage a lot of text is directly copied from the MAG rulebooks rather than reworded or abridged. If I am mistaken, please let me know, and I'd be willing to PM users my conversions if that's allowed.

My DnD Group is going to Start playing MAG for the First time, (As soon as Jake finishes HoA) And I'm GM'ing. It's my first time Gm'ing, and my Group was wondering, is it worth it to Get Wrought of Copper? Or should we play with just MAG for the First Campaign?

If anyone is interested, I’m looking at putting together a small group to try out one (or more) of the Sensational Yarns in Masks of the Past over Skype. Any takers?

As the title says. Available from Crafty's website. I don't have a copy yet so I can't really comment on the contents yet *shrugs*. I bought a copy through the house war kickstarter so I should have the digitial copy soon.

Instead of putting this in the 17th Shard suggestions thread, I decided to make a new thread, as it would be more appropriate. So. The title says it all. A 17th Shard official magazine. We could do an issue every month How many times, have any of you jumped onto the Shard and then became "bombarded" with all the new info, conversations and ideas that have occur. The Randomness thread is a perfect example of this. Every time I am there, there seems to be a few more new pages than last time. If we integrate the magazine into the 17th Shard, then we could make things like "Featured Forum Members"....more featured. We could showcase the best and latest artworks of the month as well as the best new threads to join in. We could have an RP section, showcasing the latest of what has happened in a better way and allow those who don't RP to see some of what has happened. We could have an Oathbringer update each month, as well as list any Sanderson signings and events in the magazine. What do you guys think?

Hey Everyone, I am currently recruiting players for a PBP (Play by post) MAG (Mistborn Adventure Game) campaign over at steelministry.com. I will be narrating the adventure from the Terris Supplement titled "Justice, Like Ash." I'm accepting around 4-5 players for the game, and already have a couple spots filled. If you're interested in participating, come check it out! The details are here:http://www.steelministry.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=1154

I am getting the Mistborn Adventure Game, but right now I only have two other friends to play it with(I would probably narrate). Anyone in the Midwest/Tristate/Ohio/Cincinnati area who is interested in playing? If so, reply to this and I'll shoot you. (a PM)

As part of Crafty Games' recent Mistborn dice Kickstarter, I have a number of copies of the digital download for the Mistborn Adventure Game to give away. I received one copy per dice set purchased, and the minimum number I could purchase as an international (Canadian) customer was 6. That means 5 to give away to you lovely folks. First come, first served. Reply to the topic, and I will PM you for your email addresses to send the download links to.

Hey Guys, I've been GM'ing a MAG Game with my friends, but I'm having a hard time thinking of new adventures. Does any one have anygood ones they've played?

So some time ago I set up a campaign over on steel ministry that involves a skaa crew trying to pull a job while a smaller, but more powerful, ministry crew tries to hunt them down. Unfortunately due primarily to illness and work I was unable to start it at the time. However I am now seeking to get it started. We have enough players to run it already but I would be happy to take on more players if people are seeking an opportunity to join a campaign. If we get enough people I will simply add a second skaa crew attempting a job If you want to sign up or here more about it feel free to pm me or create an account on steelministry and post in the recruitment thread.
