Gorkamorka

[Eniac]

You never played? Oh man you missed out big style! It was by far the best Wargame I have EVER played. Part of the reason is the rules but probably the best reason why this game rocks as I am sure I have said before, the whole character of the game is one of fun and mishchief and each fight had a narrative that revealed itself.

The last game I played was against a friend about a year ago. Can' remember the scenario but it didn't sem to matter. By the end of the game he had downed all my boys and bikes 'cept for my Trukk and he had 3 guys left, my truKk was the only thing left active and I was basically driving around in tighter and tighter circles for 3 turns as his Nob and 2 boys chased after me on foot. It ended when my truck finally crapped out and all three piled on board and beat the hell out of my Spanna

I remember a game probably 8 or so years ago. I had three grots legging it off towards the board edge with a scrap counter each. Over the course of three turns my brother with his Nob with shotgun took each one down and what was left at the end was a line of dead grots, the last one being a mere 2 inches from the board edge.

I didn't really care about playing in the beginning, and later the game was dead. But as I still have it, I think about introducing it to a friend of mine. I also live in a big city (Berlin), so I might find enough enthusiasts for some more games.

I just remember seeing all the excellent conversions that appeared in WD at the time of it's release - and bein really inspired.

Make a buggy out of a ferrari kit by supergluing hugely over-sized wheels, two frothing green things and a cannon onto it ...

Gorkamorka should go up on the specialist games website, it is a fantastic game that is lots of fun. I have the rulebook and da uvver book. i would love to get more people around here back into it (or into it for the first time) but it is difficult without any support from specialist games. we play a lot of epic, BFG, modheim and bloodbowl here so it would be a great addition.

ERE WE GO, ERE WE GO, ERE WE GO ....

Gorkamorka is the game that I've played most intenselly of all the GW-games, those few summer weeks a long long time ago...
Bringing it back would be nice...

[calicojack]

Just a note [likely unnecessary] to direct all GorkaMorka enthusiasts to look at the ork models in the thread(s) about the UK Games Day 2007. Mmmm.

I got a copy of gorkamorka off ebay today. full unused box. the models are still on the sprues
I'm going to introduce it to my gaming club once the current necromunda campaign winds down.
It should coincide nicely with the release of the new ork models in the new year.

Andy Hall was going to put the rules up on the Specialist Games site when the 40k Orks are released, but I have not heard anything lately

[Easy E]

Does anyone think we could use the new Necromunda Ash Waste Rules and Necromunda rules to come out with a new, updated version of Gorkamorka?

The only support we need is a rules set. 40K and Fantasy Boyz will provide us everyhting else we need as far as support.

Dont know who still is intrested and i appologise if this has been posted before. but you can download the rulebook and the other book from the GW site now. (link below)

Askil, I love you man!

I have bought Gorkamorka from a little shop in Adelaide, but I haven't been able to find Digganob.

[Gen.Steiner]

The best bit for me is that the new plastic Grots fit perfectly with what's left of my old Rebel Grot Mob...!

[Kiro]

Hmmm, I'd be interested in finding out how many people played Ork mobs as opposed to the 'others'.

[Askil the Undecided]

Diggas, Diggas and more DIGGAS!!!

Orks are cool but wannabe lameass puny humies are great too!

[skullkandy]

Hell Yeah! Gorkamorka is the greatest game GW ever made! Having the rulebooks avaliable online would hopefully increase the amount of players, which would be really good!

Bring back Gorkamorka! *goes to bump his Gorkamorka thread*

-Forgotmytea

agreed. Gorkamorka was brilliant fun.

The best part is that the new plastic Grots are a rebel grot mob. Prior to GM, the grot models were not very good. It would just be nice to have better access to their silly vehicles (like the sand barge). Oh well. Time to get my bitz box.

GM is a very fun game. Unfortunately, the rules being posted only haven't really increased the player base. They has stirred up some excitement though, and if people run with that, it might create a stronger cult following for the game.
