**Ironsworn: Delve** is a supplement for **[[Ironsworn]]** — you need the Ironsworn rulebook to use it — and it's the expansion that turns the solo-and-co-op dark fantasy game into a proper dungeon-delving expedition. Where the core game is about swearing iron vows and journeying across the Ironlands, **Ironsworn: Delve** adds structured **sites**: dangerous, rank-graded locations you discover, explore, and escape, built from a combination of **Themes** and **Domains**.
The mechanics layer a set of new moves onto the Ironsworn engine — **Discover a Site**, **Delve the Depths**, **Find an Opportunity**, **Reveal a Danger**, **Check Your Gear**, **Locate Your Objective**, and **Escape the Depths** — which drive the moment-to-moment exploration of a site and its perils. It also brings in **Risk Zones** to break sites into manageable sections, quest milestones for pacing, and plenty of guidance for hacking your own themes and domains. It's the essential companion for anyone who wants the Ironsworn experience with a proper crawl through the dark.
