Install

The current bundle is version 2026-10-17. The version is the date of the last change to this series' data.

  1. Check that the wiki has the Scribunto and TemplateStyles extensions. Fandom and wiki.gg have both.
  2. Create each of the four pages below with its exact title, and paste the text from its box. The renderer, template and styles are shared: if the wiki already has them from another series, only add the data module.
  3. Put a table on any page with one of the template lines from the preview above.

The renderer ends every table with the credit line shown in the preview. If you edit the data module by hand, set modified = true in it. The credit line then says the data was modified, as CC BY 4.0 asks.

Module:AdaptationGuide

The renderer. The same for every series; paste it once per wiki.

Module:AdaptationGuide/data/overlord

This series' data. Generated; replace it when a new version comes out.

Download data.lua

Template:AdaptationGuide

The template editors call. The same for every series.

Template:AdaptationGuide/styles.css

TemplateStyles for the tables. The same for every series.

Download styles.css
