GORM
A downloadable wargame
Esoteric Skirmish Tactics
GAME
To be a FORM is to suffer HARM. All LIFE is woven together in LOOPs of a FRAY, bound by GODS and LAWS and FATE. Ours is to make BANDs to share FIAT, give and take the BOSS crown, WORK and CAST LOTS. Against BURN and HARM we must protect our GORM, lest we become BURN DOUT and GORM LESS and let the FRAY take us.
GORM is a skirmish miniatures wargame that abstracts the complexities of the battle to live well into BANDs of LIFE FORMs fighting in FRAYs.
GORM is what keeps you human. Defend it from HARM and your own overextension.
FORM
- Many all caps four letter WORDs
- Complete LAWS for GODS and FATE to dictate the outcome of FRAYs
- Bespoke scenario FRAY: KORE MELT
- BOOK MARKed FILE
- Three BAND WAYS to bind six BAND FORMS
- LAWS to tell you if LIFE, JUNK, or SITE are hardest
- Extensive consideration of deep fatigue and balancing the need to do your best against the knowledge that doing everything leads to ruin.
