PIRATE BORG Comes To Port

On the occasion of International Talk Like A Pirate Day, Free League has released PIRATE BORG, their nautical spinoff of the gritty artpunk RPG MORK BORG. Several expansions have been created for MORK BORG, but this is the first third-party expansion created by someone else with Free League’s blessing. PIRATE BORG takes the world of MORK BORG and enhances it for the high seas.

This game is about being a greedy, filthy, scoundrel. Find a ship. Recruit some crew. Raid, pillage, plunder, and otherwise pilfer your weasley black guts out. Get a bigger ship. Kill some things. Upgrade your ship. Sneak into a fort. Raid a port. Acquire treasure. Bury said treasure. Become infamous. Search for someone else’s treasure. Flee in terror from unfathomable creatures from the deep. Drink all of the rum. Die on the high seas. Roll a new character and do it all again.

Everything you need for PIRATE BORG is included in a 166 page book:

• complete rules based on and compatible with the award winning doom art-punk RPG Mörk Borg
• 8 character classes
• easy-to-learn naval combat rules
• stats for 18 vessels
• 80+ NPCs & monsters
• 90+ system agnostic tables
• “The Curse of Skeleton Point”, a sandbox style adventure with 11 pirate-themed locations.

PIRATE BORG was written and illustrated by Luke Stratton, also known as Limithron, who is known for his pirate-themed battle maps. Free League is distributing the game under their Free League Workshop sub-label, which was established for independent games that build on their own.

Now get this, PIRATE BORG is advertised as an addition to MORK BORG, but it doesn’t have to be. The tools within are malleable enough that they could be used in conjunction with any RPG out there. You wanna make it 5E compatible? Why not?

You can get Pirate Borg now at most hobby shops, the Free League webstore or as a PDF at DriveThruRPG.
