Eberron: Forge of the Artificer once again delves into the world of Eberron, a setting filled with magical technology, political intrigue, and pulp‑style adventure. It is a companion book that expands upon existing Eberron material, especially Eberron: Rising from the Last War, but is designed for use with the new 2024 D&D Core Rules.

This is a thoroughly revised version of the Artificer class, updated to match the new Core Rules. The book includes:

• 4 updated subclasses (Alchemist, Armorer, Artillerist, Battle Smith)
• 1 entirely new subclass: Cartographer

The class features new rules, expanded options, and updated compatibility with the newest edition.

The book offers a wide range of new player options, including:

• 5 revised species: Changeling, Kalashtar, Khoravar, Shifter, Warforged
• 18 new backgrounds
• 28 feats, including significantly redesigned Dragonmark feats, which are no longer race‑locked

The entire Bastions system has been expanded with additions such as:

• new special facilities
• mobile bastions, including Artificer’s Forge, Kundarak Vault, Inquisitive Agency, and others

The book presents three distinct campaign models, each crafted specifically for the tone of Eberron:

• fantasy noir
• political thriller
• pulp adventure

Each model includes appropriate advice, plot structures, and thematic monsters.

The book also explores:

• Sharn Inquisitives – noir‑style investigative adventures set in the city of Sharn
• Morgrave Expeditions – academic and exploratory campaigns
• Elemental airships – rules for piloting, upgrading, and aerial combat

Finally, it contains an expanded collection of:

• technomagical items
• constructs
• faction agents
• monsters tailored to each campaign model
