VAST GRIMM - the most BRUTAL and IN-YOUR-FACE Sci-fi RPG EVER?! | Interview with Brian Colin

 


Vast Grimm is a stand-alone, art-filled, punk-fueled OSR role-playing game about the few humans remaining in a universe being consumed by growing parasitic würms. Are you a MAnchiNe ravaged by war, pieced together with remnants of bots and the little flesh left of your body? Maybe you're a twisted biochemist shoving needles into your arms in hopes that this next fix will be the one that saves you and what’s left of humanity? Or perhaps you are a soul survivor, like a cockroach, doing whatever is necessary to stay alive even if it means the rest of your Legion must perish. This is a game about survival, no matter how gruesome things get, humanity must survive.

Frontier Scum by Den of Druids | RPG Review

Karl Druid takes the Mörk Borg framework and gives us an acid western game of outlaws destined to be brought through the mire and muck just to face certain death... or worse. Not only that he gives us a book that feels as if it's from the setting itself!

Check out my overview and review of Frontier Scum HERE.

Pirate Borg Now on Kickstarter from Limithron!



Pirate Borg is a scurvy-ridden, rules-light, art-heavy tabletop RPG. Inspired by history, fantasy, horror, and rum. Your cutlass & flintlock won't save you from the hordes of skeletons, the Kraken, or even your own crew.

Pirate Borg is a self-contained, rules-light game based on and compatible with Mörk Borg. It is written, illustrated, and laid out by Luke Stratton (Limithron), an independent artist and creator based in Denver, CO.
VCG was lucky to have Luke give time to our show for two sessions. In the first session, Luke and Doug talked all about Pirate Borg and answered questions from our VCG Discord community. You can watch that session HERE.

Then for the second session, we got the Chaotic Good Cast together to play a one-shot GM'ed by Luke! You can watch the second session HERE.
You can view the Kickstarter here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/limithron/pirate-borg?ref=bno7d6 The Limithron Patreon is here: https://www.patreon.com/limithron

Death In Space RPG Review - Is It Sci-fi Mörk Borg?

 



Death In Space was one of my most anticipated roleplaying games of 2022. Is it a science fiction re-skin of Mörk Borg? If you didn't like Mörk Borg is there a chance you'll enjoy Death In Space? Is Death In Space still one of my most anticipated RPGs of 2022 now that I have a copy in my hand? In this video, I take you through the book, tell you what I like about it and let you know if it still is going to be one of my favorite RPGs of the year.
Click HERE for the video review. Death in Space was created by Christian Plogfors and Carl Niblaeus of Stockholm Kartell. You can learn more about Death In Space at http://deathinspace.com The online PC generator is here: https://death-bbs.makedatanotlore.dev/
