Genius. You play as apple-tall, yellow goblins smörking in a village that looks like a field of mushrooms. Life would be shirtless, yellow glory save for two problems: You are smörking tasty, and every creature towers over you even as they savor your flavor. Character creation is simple. Roll your stats. What’s your name/highest stat? You’re (<em>checks character sheet</em>) Agility Smörk. Did two characters end up with high Agility? Then one of them is Jumpin’ Smörk. What will a session or campaign look like? Remember the zombie Smurfs from the <strong><em>The Smurfs</em></strong> season 1 episode, “<a href="https://smurfs.fandom.com/wiki/The_Purple_Smurfs" target="_blank">The Purple Smurfs</a>” (or the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Purple_Smurfs" target="_blank">original comic album</a>)? That’s ideal ground to build a <strong><em>Smörk Borg</em></strong> campaign around. Would it be dark or delightful? Powered by <strong><em>Mörk Borg</em></strong>, the setting can be a horror (<em>mushroom</em>) house of evil or it can be lighter and more comical like the inspirational material; either way, the players can lean into the lethality of the system and determine their own outcome. This project recalls the other, recent third-party <strong><em>Mörk Borg</em></strong> RPGs: <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gemroomgames/dukk-borg" target="_blank"><strong><em>DUKK BÖRG</em></strong></a> (a riff on <strong><em>Duck Tales</em></strong>) and <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/shakesomespears/toon-borg" target="_blank"><strong><em>ANIMORT</em></strong></a> (Steamborg Willie in the black-and-white era of cartoons), both building an homage to classic cartoons.

During the [URL='https://www.enworld.org/threads/podcast-235-the-ogl-saga-concludes.695048/']OGL crisis[/URL], [B]Troll Lord Games[/B] decided to revise [B]C&C[/B] in order to jettison the OGL. This fantasy system was an [URL='https://trolllord.com/worlds-of-gary-gygax/']homage to the work of, and used by, Gary Gygax[/URL]. This crowdfunding provides those revised, OGL free versions of [B]C&C [/B]including [B][I]Castles & Crusades Players Handbook[/I][/B] (272 pages), [B][I]Castles & Crusades Monsters & Treasure[/I][/B] (365 pages featuring 400 monsters), [B][I]Castles & Crusades Castle Keepers Guide [/I][/B](256 pages), [B][I]Castles & Crusades Beneath the Canopy Green[/I][/B] (200 pages of adventures), [B][I]Barsoom: A Pocket Atlas to the Dying Planet[/I][/B] is 20 to 25 pages of adventures in the world introduced by Edgar Rice Burroughs for [B]John Carter[/B], a GM screen, and [B][I]The Crusader Journal #28[/I][/B] (36 pages of [B]C&C[/B] magazine). That’s the core rules and then some. Already own some [B]C&C[/B] books? No problem, these are the same books with some edits and the OGL content removed and replaced so yours still work. If you’re a fan of fantasy d20 RPGs and want a system that is a fully supported, modern [B]AD&D[/B], this project is worth a look.

Originally designed for [B]5e[/B], this campaign updates that book for use with [B]PF2e[/B]. But this isn’t just any conversion, [B]PalaeoGames[/B] worked with the creators of the [B][I]Pathfinder Second Edition[/I][/B] ruleset to ensure the game is the best possible PF2eDino experience it can be. The resulting book is 304 pages with 57 Mesozoic creatures, 20 Mesozoic plants, 6 new ancestries, and much more. The hook are the dinosaurs, the closer is the realistic, simulations elements of their versions. If [B]PF2e[/B] and grounded stories about dinosaurs would excite your gaming table, this campaign awaits your review.

Genius. You play as apple-tall, yellow goblins smörking in a village that looks like a field of mushrooms. Life would be shirtless, yellow glory save for two problems: You are smörking tasty, and every creature towers over you even as they savor your flavor. Character creation is simple. Roll your stats. What’s your name/highest stat? You’re ([I]checks character sheet[/I]) Agility Smörk. Did two characters end up with high Agility? Then one of them is Jumpin’ Smörk. What will a session or campaign look like? Remember the zombie Smurfs from the [B][I]The Smurfs[/I][/B] season 1 episode, “[URL='https://smurfs.fandom.com/wiki/The_Purple_Smurfs']The Purple Smurfs[/URL]” (or the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Purple_Smurfs']original comic album[/URL])? That’s ideal ground to build a [B][I]Smörk Borg[/I][/B] campaign around. Would it be dark or delightful? Powered by [B][I]Mörk Borg[/I][/B], the setting can be a horror ([I]mushroom[/I]) house of evil or it can be lighter and more comical like the inspirational material; either way, the players can lean into the lethality of the system and determine their own outcome. This project recalls the other, recent third-party [B][I]Mörk Borg[/I][/B] RPGs: [URL='https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gemroomgames/dukk-borg'][B][I]DUKK BÖRG[/I][/B][/URL] (a riff on [B][I]Duck Tales[/I][/B]) and [URL='https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/shakesomespears/toon-borg'][B][I]ANIMORT[/I][/B][/URL] (Steamborg Willie in the black-and-white era of cartoons), both building an homage to classic cartoons.
