Slav Borg – 2026/04/17

GOBLINS. CURSED LADAS. THE SOVIET BLOC IS ENDING AND SO ARE YOU.
MÖRK BORG, but the apocalypse smells like coal smoke and cheap vodka. Set in a post-Soviet borderland where a necromancer has occupied the local fortress and babushkas brew potions in rusty bathtubs. You play goblin crews pulling scams, racing junked cars, and surviving a world that was already falling apart before the curse arrived.
Perfect for: MÖRK BORG fans who want more crunch, Eastern European absurdism, and a reason to flip a car.

🎒 What to bring

• Yourself
• No attachment to your goblin (or their car)
• Tolerance for chaos — this system leans into it

🎁 What we provide

• Quick character creation at the table — roll stats, pick a class, done in 5 minutes
• All dice
• The book (180 pages of post-Soviet grime and hand-lettered manuscript art)
• 3 – 4 hours running a one-shot from the included scenario

⚙️ How it plays

• Built on the MÖRK BORG engine: roll D20 against a Difficulty Rating, modified by your ability scores
• Cunning Points let you reroll dice, maximize damage, or lower a test’s difficulty — spend them wisely
• Six classes: Coiners, Yoomaks, Tinkerers, Smugglers, Street Fighters, and Charlatans. All goblin, all criminal, all expendable
• Magic is Slavic folklore — potions, machine spirits, and low-level illusions. No spell slots, no formal schools
• Vehicles have their own stat sheets: Speed, Save, and Structure tracking individual components like tires and chassis
• Racing rules: 18 pages of dedicated vehicular combat. Drift through turns with an Agility test, ram opponents, boost speed, lose a tire. Rounds use modular road tiles drawn and discarded as the race moves
• Cars can be stolen, tuned, armored, and spiritually possessed

🏆 What you take home
