Welcome to Forge Studio Community: a place to find something useful for your next game, share what you have made, and stay in touch with your campaign.
Your first five minutes
- Sign in with your Forge account. Use the board’s Log In button. Your community name, profile and linked campaign roles are available in Forge Community and ACE.
- Tell us what you play. Introduce yourself in What are you running or playing?. A couple of sentences is enough.
- Take something to your next session. Meet Mara Vale, the toll keeper, or borrow The Bell That Rang for Nobody.
- Choose your alerts. Open your avatar, then Preferences → Emails. You can also use the Email alerts link in your ACE Community account. Watch the discussions you want to follow; adjust email frequency to suit you. Email replies are not enabled yet: use the link in the email to answer on the board.
- Find your campaign. Your Community account links to campaign discussions when your Forge membership is active and synchronized. GMs also receive a private GM-room link. If a room is missing, ask your GM or use the help topic; a community trust level does not grant campaign access.

Make this a useful place
Be welcoming, give credit when sharing someone else’s work, and say whether a resource is your own creation, an adaptation or a rules reference. Put campaign secrets in the appropriate private room. Public discussions can be read without signing in. In a shared campaign room, post only what that campaign’s players may know.
For private conversations, use My messages. If a messaging option is unavailable, ask a moderator for help rather than posting a private matter publicly.
You do not need a polished article to contribute. One useful idea, a clear question or a short account of what happened at your table is a good start.
