CONTENT GUIDE
RULES
Much of the rules content included in The Delver's Tome is taken from official rules and information published by Mantic and as such can be considered canon in terms of the ruleset and how the game plays.
However NOT ALL of this rules information is official however, as one of the primary aims of these pages is to expand upon and add to the rules that have been printed & provided with the game.
​
The additional rules content that has an impact on gameplay will be clearly marked with the [CUSTOM] label that will feature along side it.
​
As content is user generated by fans and the wider community supporting Dungeon Saga, there is no guarantee of how balanced it is or how compatible it may be with other components or expansions of the game.
As per any Dungeon, [CUSTOM] content should be treated with a fair degree of caution!
Balance and compatibility should always be the aim for new content if it is to truly blend in with the existing rules and expand the game as a whole but Adventurer's should be aware of the possible pitfalls associated with such experimentation.
FLAVOUR TEXT
This labelling system does NOT apply to flavour text (fluff), background and lore content however where this content has no impact on gameplay or balance.

CONTENTS
Upon the pages of The Delver's Tome, years of toil have inscribed the knowledge & lore necessary to prepare the discernible adventurer as they embark on tales yet untold. A devoted study of this recorded wisdom shall well equip you for the myriad of encounters possible when setting out on the paths both known and unknown in the world, least not the subterranean depths of its dungeons.
Though it is not only danger and enemies documented herein, assets and allies alike are recorded for perusal and studious consumption. And both are needed in parity if adventurers wish to have their own encounters and discoveries appended within the tome for those that might follow after.
Chapters and sections are regularly being discovered, translated and compiled from the many lesser books and journals throughout the world from which The Delver's Tome is expanded, so frequent inspection comes with high recommendation.
Peruse the contents provided and read on - dedicated study shall lead to enlightenment.
