Orky Talents (Warhammer Cards I Forgot To Blog, Part 4)

More NPC Talent cards. These ones are specifically for Orcs, Goblins, and their associated spin-off critters (squigs, snotlings, night goblins, savage orcs, etc).

A few of these are just card versions of existing rules from the Creature Guide or Tome Of Adventure, placed on cards so you don't have to look anything up in a book during the game. And some of those have alternate versions where I felt a house rule might make them more flavorful or potent. The two "Gang Uv" cards were adapted from the official FAQ, to cover the missing monster stats in one of the published adventure modules -- maybe it was "The Gathering Storm"? The others are things I made to capture various aspects of greenskins in the setting.

The ones with a blue label are racial abilities that all creatures of the appropriate species should have access to. The ones with a orange-ish/brown label are intended as optional modifiers for spicing up an encounter.

Apparently, I planned to run a goofy encounter with some really stupid snotlings, and just never got around to it. Most of the new cards have had zero playtesting, as The Enemy Within had just one or two optional greenskin-related encounters in the travel section, and I haven't run another Warhammer campaign since that one wrapped up late last year. So why did I make a bunch of cards I had no plans to use? I don't know. I just really like Orcs, I guess, ever since I played an Ork army in Warhammer 40k. I guess I got swept up in the "Waaaaghh!" 

As with the other posts in this "Warhammer Cards I Forgot To Blog" series, I'm posting this stuff on the outside chance that someone else may find it useful. I did a ton of card-creation and prep-work while running Warhammer 3rd, and since I don't know if I'll ever get back to it, I figure I might as well make it available to anyone else playing the game. It seems kind of a waste to keep it all to myself, when it might very well prove useful to some other GM.

Yellow and Blue make Ork

So, apparently a 5th Edition of WH40k has released sometime earlier this year, and, along with it, a new Orky Codex. This edition continues the gritty ork style of 3rd and 4th edition. To me, that is a such a downer. The new ork deathcopta's, which come in the new main rule set, are very sweet, but other than that, they just don't feel like orks to me. They feel like Goff Orks only, and fairly uncolorful Goff Orks at that.

As a former WH40k Second Edition player, Orks are all about flavor and color. I like the goofy Orky glyphs painted on my Bad Moonz Yellow armor, and the blue face paint for good luck on the drivah of my big red buggy. I want Gretchin with blunderbusses, and Runtherdz pushing snotlings, squig wargear, and all sorts of ridiculous artillery that's only slightly less dangerous to me than the enemy. When I'm playing Orks, I want random, I want crazy, I want to scream "Waaaagghhh!" at the top of my lungs. But most of all, I want the six orky clans with all their flavor and foibles.

And it's a good thing, too, because if it weren't for that disconnect between what I want and what the rules provide, the very charismatic manager at the GW store down the road would have had me sold on that beautiful boxed set with 3 ded sexy deathcoptahs.

Orky Lost and GwenCon

I'm just a couple weeks away from GwenCon, and I still haven't done much to prep for it. On Friday, I started pouring over my Orky 'Eresy notes and making the PCs for my Orky Lost scenario, while I had the first 4 episodes of Lost running in the background.

One of the things I learned in the process was that while my Orky conversion of Dark Heresy and WFRP could work well for a long-term campaign, it was still too complicated and fiddly for a one-shot. To illustrate that point, I'll include the partial character sheet text for the the beginning stages of the characters. Each of them had over 3,000 xp already, and they hadn't grown beyond the introductory 32 classes I'd posted here yet. Since those 32 careers don't include Painboy, which the Jack ork needs to be, clearly I still had a lot of work to do. These are all very rough-drafty:

Obviously, that wasn't going to work. I was going to have very dense character sheets, packed with explanations of how various Talents work. And since part of how the careers were balanced involved the "Trappings" I was either going to have balance issues or completely fail to get the feeling that they were stranded on an island with minimal resources. So, back to the drawing board.

I am going to streamline the heck out of the system. It will be abstract and simple when I'm done, and may not end up feeling much at all like the original. But for a one-shot (where I may not even know the players in advance) that's just perfect. That will allow me to focus on tone and flavor, not the accuracy of every little mechanical detail.

22 more Orky Careers (Updated)

Months ago, I did a bunch of ground work for "Orky Heresy", an Orky companion piece for the Dark Heresy RPG. I put the first few Orky Careers up on this blog at that time. I intended then to keep working on it, and put more stuff up over time, but I never got around to it. I got caught up on other projects, and I decided that in general the rules of Dark Heresy and the Warhammer Fantasy RPG were more fiddly and complicated than I like to game under.

However, I'm running a streamlined, cut-down version of the system for GwenCon. Since I'm going to be doing work about it in the next couple weeks, I might as well stick the preliminary work up here. With that in mind, I posted 22 more orky careers yesterday, bringing the total up to 32. To use them, you need to read the older posts:

• Character Creation
• Character Advancement and XP
  
• Money
• Why I chose Warhammer Fantasy RPG (instead of Dark Heresy) for Career System.
• New Skills and Talents
  

The careers posted today are intended as Advanced Careers. You can't start with them, but you can develop into them as you spend XP. I don't have time to index them at the moment, but I may do so tomorrow.

Roll up a starting career via a d10 on this chart:

1. Bad Moons Clanboy
2. Blood Axe Clanboy
3. Deathskullz Clanboy
4. Evil Sunz Clanboy
5. Goff Clanboy
6. Snakebitez Clanboy
7. Yoof
8. Freebooter
9. Stormboy
10. Wild Ork

Here's an index of links to all the careers hosted on this blog:

• Bad Moons Clanboy
• Bannerboy
• Big Boss
• BigMobBoy
• Blood Axe Clanboy
• Boss
• Deathskullz Clanboy

This statement should be obvious, but I'll mention it anyway: Dark Heresy, Warhammer 40k, and Warhammer Fantasy Roleplaying and several of those career names are the copyrighted terms of Games Workshop. It is all used without permission. In order to make use of the Orky materials presented here, you'd pretty much need to have access to Dark Heresy and the WHFRP main books. I drew upon both of those books for the mechanical framework, and upon those books plus a variety of sources from 3 different editions of the Warhammer 40k tabletop miniatures game for the setting information. The orks presented here are clearly based upon the intellectual property of Games Workshop, and no challenge is intended to their copyrights.
