Space Gits (not a GW game)

[Brother Tyler]

Have you ever wondered what the Orks that don't join the Waaagh!!! end up doing? Now you can find out.

 

@Gillyfish and I have been discussing how we can maintain our proper GW WH40K focus while still allowing the net to be cast a little wider, whether using non-GW models or using GW models in a non-GW WH40K game. In the past, homegrown games such as In the Emperor's Name have come up, and our discussions have started with things like various offerings from One Page Rules. In the past, we have often clamped down on non-GW games, especially homegrown efforts, but we have decided that this hasn't supported the community well, so we're looking at loosening things up a bit. This doesn't mean that we're going to open the floodgates - we still want things to have a clear WH40K focus. More information will be provided on that later. In the meantime...

 

...I was recently introduced to Space Gits and almost immediately backed it on Kickstarter. I have a bevy of WH40K Orks that will find themselves stumbling around the battlefield in the not-too-distant future.

Oooh, I've heard of this! Slightly modernized Gorkamorka? Count me in! Especially as I've ordered a bunch of cheap Orks on Wayland/Troll Trader/eBay.

 

Also the creator has made the game engine ("Riot Dice") explicitly open-source for other writers to make their own games with, which is a seriously cool move.
