The horrors and atrocities of war and ecological mutilation have come to the dying lands. A sequel hack to the Ennie award winning MÖRK BORG, Farewell to Arms REDUX takes the best part of the roleplaying experience you know and love and injects deadly trench raiding and multi-tier, grand-strategy aspects. Players will play the grvnts on the ground, the squads in the field, and the generals gathered in their masses. But one thing is sure, there are no heroes, only tragic endings.

With anti-war themes and a strong call for ecological care, Farewell to Arms REDUX is a unique addition to any RPG collection. This immaculate, 160+ page tome will not only stand out on your shelf but will stand alone at your table, as players will come back time and time again for the fast, brutal, and thought-provoking gameplay the system is known for.

i absolutely love this, however I can’t find how ammo and reloading works. Someone Please explain.

Ammo is used once per firearm usage. Reloading is assumed. You roll your Ammo at the start of each day if you run out.

thanks so much. This makes much more sense than how I thought ammmo worked.

this is the first Mork Borg thing to stick in my brain - i love it! one small question: the text mentions getting a Side Arm from your Class, but there doesn't seem to be any way to get a Side Arm in this?

Great question! Every class rolls a d8 on the sidearms table during character creation!

There we go - thank you!

This game rocks! All the dark fun of Mork Borg, but now you’re popping rounds out of a Cult .45 baby! Really fun to play, fast to pick up for friends and other normies. Why wait? Hop in the trenches and fight for your life!

Very well done modified ruleset to play a Mork Bork-type game in a trench warfare environent. The game does a great job in displaying the horrors of war. Well done mechanics show real well thought out process. The addtional rules make sense, and they are not just there to be different. If you are lloking for doom metal game to dive into the chaos of war, look no further.

This Mork Borg version of WWII  is one of the best that I played. I like the way things are presented, and the layout is clear ;) if you already love games like forbidden psalm: the last war, I recommend this game for sure

This game is fantastic. The creators captured not only the Mork Borg style and feel of the game but have developed a fantastic and wholly unique paradigm of game style that offers a much larger world that makes the players feel invested in the stories they develop together!

The gameplay brings desperation but hope. Choices with consequences and an opportunity to expand the existing setting to much broader scope of gameplay that makes the path the players choose and missions they take on changes the world around them. 

The potential for variability in the gameplay is immense. Each squad has the ability to make choice that affect the direction of the conflicts they themselves partake in and to alter the course of the world they inhabit. 

Don’t miss out and make the time to play and invest heavily in this game!
