Gorkamorka

Modern Conquest and War Games

Gorkamorka is a tabletop skirmish wargame produced by Games Workshop and set on the desert world of Angelis in the Warhammer 40,000 setting, where it centres on Orks. Each player takes control of a group of warriors and tries to gain wealth and experience through an open-ended campaign, and the campaign system adjusts the rewards players receive so that new players can join and leave without a large power gap. The rules derive from the second edition of Warhammer 40,000, with extra vehicle rules added. An expansion set, Digganob, followed in 1998 with further playable factions, special characters and scenarios, and the rule book and source book were later released on the Games Workshop website under its Out of Print Games section.
