Just ran a game where a single player, playing a Paladin class from your Hallowed supplement, was able to defeat Ogyr King Pom, with the aid of one of Trumzee's sons (who was equipped with the Harvester of Sorrows he took from Flab). I had it that Randolf, The Copper Prince of Schleswig (from Monsters!) stole Princess Lavina (who I said was his half-sister) and sold her to Pom in exchange for a political alliance, as part of a plot to dethrone Fathmu IX. It was an impressive fight!
But here is a question: how does one destroy the indestructible femur of St. Martinius the Pure?
That sounds like a great crossover you fashioned there :D
Regarding the femur, that's a great question. To give you a simple answer, the "indestructible" only refers to it breaking when you fumble an attack roll. That can't happen. So out of combat, you can rule that it can be ground down in a mill or something (if you want to). Otherwise, to give it a bit more flavor, I suggest that you must bath the femur in the blood of an innocent to make it brittle for 1 day during which you can destroy it :)
Dungeoneers Black Book is a 55 page adventure supplement for Mork Borg. And it commits with resolute force to the Mork Borg bit. Every page is striking and unique, and the tone is garish and gloomy and weird.
There are 16 dungeons in the Black Book overall, enough for months of oneshots. And while they're all fairly bite-sized, they each feel extremely distinct.
The most similar are the handful of caves, which are different more in theme than in structure, but there's also a lot of dungeons here that are experimental without losing their gameyness. The Dusty Catacombs is built out of cards, and this allows you to make it as big or as small as you want (within an overall cap of 52 rooms and corridors.) Dr Grigory's Laboratory Warren uses words as map pieces, so a hallway will be written as CORRIDORCORRIDORCORRIDOR, and this is a little tough to describe, but visually it's quite striking.
In terms of difficulty, everything feels calibrated for a standard Mork Borg party. The expectation of lethality is there, but it's consistent with the tone and feels earned, not forced.
Overall, if you like Mork Borg as presented in its core book, there's something here for you. And if you like gorgeous art and layout, there's definitely something here for you---every spread is a painting.
Hey, thanks for the review, much appreciated! It's bewildering that Itch only has hidden reviews, but this is a good workaround. And happy you like it! :D
What reviews are hidden? I have been shopping on itch for a couple of years now and have seen reviews on many products.
Really? Maybe I just have set it up wrong (but I don't think so because others were complaining about this in the Itch forum as well.) For example, if you look at the Vaults here, it has three ratings: https://christianeichhorn.itch.io/the-vaults-of-torment
Two of those are just ratings, one is a review. And I don't think you can see the actual review text anywhere, that's why I manually copied it into the description.
But if there is a way, let me know, I'm not an Itch pro and it doesn't have the most intuitive GUI.
I can't even see the ratings, all I see is one single post titled: "There's so much power, violence and elegance!"
To see the ratings at least, you have to hit the "more information" button. It took me a while to discover that :D
