MCDM RPG Draw Steel Support

Hello! I am quite surprised that Roll20 does not have a character sheet for this one yet. I am not.well versed in coding so I rely on Roll20 to issue character sheets for my favorite rpgs. Please add Draw Steel to the list of supported TTRPGs. Thank you!

Hi Josh B.,  Your best bet would be to contact the publsher.  Most character sheets on Roll20 are created by the community.  The "by Roll20" character sheets are usually created via a contract with the publisher. Often at publisher behest.  Or there are the character sheets that the publisher has contracted someone else to make in Roll20.  With all that said, you don't need to have a character sheet in Roll20. You can go sheetless if you have a digital sheet somewhere else.  To set up rolls in Roll20 you use the Attributes and Abilities tab to keep track of various stats and their macros. This is how we did it before sheets were a part of Roll20.

Here to also express my interest in Draw Steel support for roll20. 

I also find it quite strange that it is not on the list of supported games...

In order to be listed, it needs a character sheet and a threshold of a certain number of games/players engaged in the game. 

Yeah, I've knocked up a few characters and all the attributes, abilities and macros 'sheetless', but its obviously very raw and as I'm only a plus user, I can't make a sheet, and to be honest, I wouldn't have the first clue as to how to do it! It would be great if there was even a fairly basic character sheet selectable that I could hook into for my players.

We need like 5 more votes for this for Roll20 to do something. We can do it!

Boosting this as well, would love to see some support. At the moment just working with form fillable PDFs which does not integrate as nicely. 

Same here. 

Hello Everyone, I have contacted the Publisher MCDM. MCDM have plans looking to release Draw Steel for VTT's next year, 2026, and it is in development and testing now.&nbsp; In the meantime....&nbsp; Users on the MCDM Discord have already developed Roll20 Macros made to help run Draw Steel on Roll20 right now. Macros are text code that you can copy-paste into your Roll20 game to use it for free.&nbsp; Go to their Discord, and ask for Roll20 macros help in the rooms called #ds_newbies #trgp_virtual-tabletop The invite link to MCDM discord is at the bottom of their webpage:&nbsp; <a href="https://shop.mcdmproductions.com/" rel="nofollow">https://shop.mcdmproductions.com/</a> &nbsp; mcdm.gg/discord

Need a sheet 😫 this is the next game im running and I dont wanna wait to play. Roll20 please get on this i suck at coding

Thanks for the info, Gold! Just tossing in my interest as well in seeing someone develop a sheet and more official support for Draw Steel be added to Roll20 at some point.

So until someone makes a character sheet for Draw Steel I won't be able to make a LFG listing nor will I be able to find someone running the game? Shit like that is why I cancelled my subscription. Been on roll20 for over ten years and I'm really considering switching to a different VTT.

Shit like that is why I cancelled my subscription. Been on roll20 for over ten years and I'm really considering switching to a different VTT. You can make an LFG listing under "Other Games" and include Draw Steel in the title and description and it will automatically become a searchable keyword under "Matching Keywords" in the LFG and if you try it there is a Draw Steel game offer listed there now. You can also use the Community Forums LFG and post Draw Steel in your headline.&nbsp; That's correct that Draw Steel will not appear as a game in the drop-down for "Playing" until Roll20 recognizes it and adds it there, which usually follows a Character Sheet and a number of games using that sheet. But this does not prevent you from listing it in your text, or users from finding it listed in your text.&nbsp;

Add me to the list for Interest in Draw Steel Support

Same Here, cant wait (im a Dm with 20+ players)

I was also looking for support for my new Draw Steel game in Roll20. Is it supported anywhere else? I will shift my player group as needed.

Wanted to post here that there is a small community of fans that is currently making a character sheet. We have a lot of it built already and would be looking for people to test it out and give feedback. Feel free to message me directly if you are interested

Greetings everyone! In playing Draw Steel on any VTT, especially Roll20, you really don't need a Roll20 Character sheet! The Draw Steel system mostly rolls 2d10 for virtually everything that happens in the game. In the early game, the highest your bonus to this roll can get is +6, but even that is a real "edge" case. (Once you learn the system, you'll see the pun I just made) The VAST majority of rolls are 2d10+2. So a simple 5 minutes of building macros from 2d10-2 all the way up to 2d10+4&nbsp; will account for 90% of rolls.&nbsp; Secondly, there's an online toolkit, made by a fan, that's free on Github. It's called Forge Steel. Their streamlined character creating process is second to none. The character sheet can be updated easily in real time to track all resources. Please don't let a lack of "offical" Draw Steel materials on the Roll20 Marketplace be your barrier to entry! As stated by prior people above, plenty of helpful people on the MCDM Discord.&nbsp; I run games on Start Playing Games, and would be happy to run anyone that is interested in learning Draw Steel through a tutorial free of charge. Just message me here and I'd be happy to show you the ropes!&nbsp;

I get what you’re saying, Greg, but that is kind of a wild stance to take. &nbsp;A big part of the appeal to a VTT is the automation that can be built into the character sheets. &nbsp;There are things to track and lots of numbers involved, and abilities that interact with various rules. My table are going to be playing the intro campaign for Draw Steel and the lack of a character sheet in Roll20 is a source of friction for our group.
