GorkaMorka iz 'Ere!!!


From the Specialist Games' website:

"As you may or, indeed, may not know, this Saturday the Orks (with a k!) return to Games Workshop stores with a new range and codex after 10 year break. With all the fantastic and swanky new trukk, bike and boyz kits suddenly available I thought it would be an excellent opportunity to PDF and release the GorkaMorka rules, both for Specialist Games vets and those yoofs who weren’t about a decade ago.

The GorkaMorka PDFs that are available for download are Da Roolz and Da Uvver Book. The Roolz describe the raw mechanics needed to play a game while Da Uvver Book contains all the campaign information you’ll need to turn your games into more than just one off battles. You’ll need both books to get the best out of GorkaMorka.

The Roolz book describes the contents from the original boxed game, which are obviously no longer supplied. So, you’re going to have to source your own Orky scenery, and models. I did try and get a scan of the Turney Gubbinz template, but, alas, could not locate one, so you’ll have to find your own way of measuring a 45 degree angle. As this is simply half of a right angle I don’t believe it will be too hard to accomplish. Mob rosters have been included at the end of the Uvver Book file, feel free to print as many of those pages off as you’ll need.

Before you scoot off and start downloading please read our terms of conditions for downloading these files here. This is important because unauthorised downloading, selling, hosting or breaching our copyright in any way not only jeopardizes future download releases but could also result in GorkMorka and other such resources been taken off the site.

So, if you’re ready for some Orky mob madness you can download the files from their new home on the Games Variant page (follow link then scroll down) or you can download the Roolz Book directly from here (2.3 MB file) and the Uvver Book here (2.6mb file).

Go Gorkas!

For now,
Andy @ Fanatic"

On a sidenote, Da Roolz for Brewhouse Bash! are online too...
