TORQUE BORG is a rules light, art Heavy TTRPG at the end of the world. Radiation has shaped and twisted the shattered world while beasts, bugs and thugs try to take your life as you hack, shoot, and race your way across the sandblasted wasteland of the world that once was. 

Torque Borg is fully illustrated - packing style and legibility on every page

Torque Borg is compatible with the award-winning MÖRK BORG, CY_BORG and Wasteland Degenerates. However, they are NOT required to play. You can rip out and freely use the setting, classes, rules and tables for play in your favorite TTRPG setting, or make it up as you go. Players are doomed Wasters, wretched survivors trying their damnedest to survive another day. Too bad the world is about to end again. The WASTE and everything in it wants you dead. Factions clash and fight over the scraps of the old world, changing the waste as you move through it. Events will come to pass with or without the player's involvement.

The WASTE has been shaped by The BLEED, malevolent radiation that has warped and twisted the dying world. The DOOMSDAY CLOCK counts down to the end of everything, and there are just minutes until midnight.

The Game:

The Torque Borg core book, character sheets and two starter adventures and more are included at all pledge levels, both physical and digital.

Torque Borg is built for 2-5 players, and supports both one-shots and long-form campaigns. The 130+ page hardcover book and PDF contains all you need to play, along with a dossier on each major location and factions, six unique classes, vehicle combat, mod-able vehicles, psychic powers, mutations, 40+ unique beasts, bugs and thugs to kill or be killed by and more.  As a Kickstarter exclusive, all backers will also receive two starter adventure zines, Echo of Steel and Corpse Road to the Cranklands, for free.
