This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

My group which has been playing Star Wars D6 for the last 6 plus months has decided to alternate games each week.

So we have started playing TORG Revised and Expanded and it was a lot of fun.    Tonight we are back to Star Wars D6 and in 2 weeks (we have to skip next week) we will be back to Torg.

I am having a great time playing a Nile Empire Fast Hero.  And its cool to know that some of what we do will shape the eventual TORG 2.0 Book.

We have a Nile Empire character (me), 2 Cyberpapacy characters, a character from Asyle, a character from The Land Below and one from Nippon Tech.

When we last off we were fighting off 2 inquisitors and another figure from the church who stayed outside of the safehouse apartment building.  When we ended we split up to meet up at safe house number 2.  There wasnt much left of Safe house number 1.

I miss TORG. One of my favorite games back in the day.

You can get the box set on ebay.  I would recommend picking up the TORG Revised and Expanded book and then grab a worldbook and a deck of cards.

TORG is a lot of fun.  I know that WEG is going to be at GenCon and they will be selling any TORG material they have left over (including some of the supplement books) so if you are there you can pick up a lot of good stuff for TORG.

What is this 'Torg' of which you speak? Or, more seriously, what's Torg about?
The main problem with government is the difficulty of pressing charges against its directors.

Given a choice of two out of three M&Ms, the human brain subconsciously tries to justify the two M&Ms chosen as being superior to the M&M not chosen.

Its a great game; powerful beings from other (alternate) realities, invade earth to drain it of its "possibility", superimposing their realities on that of Earth. So most of North America gets transformed into a primitive dino-filled jungle; Egypt becomes a pulp adventuring two-fisted realm, France becomes a cyberpunk dystopia, etc.

Its pretty cool.

Oh, I still have all my TORG stuff. All of it. I bought everything but the Tokyo sourcebook, I believe.
