Torg Eternity Skirmishes, Battles, Soaking and Called Shots

ADD TO WISHLIST >

The Torg Rules are very flexible. Rather than adding new rules, this booklet is more of an exploration of what is possible with the current rule set. Apart from Disfavored, which is not in the Core Rules and which I introduced in my Aysle Bestiary, and the optional ways of Soaking Damage, you won’t find anything in here that is likely to break your game.

The Called Shot rules are clarifications, rather than house rules, regarding when and where called shots can ignore armor and how Vital Blows work with ignoring armor. I felt that my players needed the clarification written down.  The Rotting Knight Gospog is from my Aysle Bestiary and is provided here only to use in the Called Shot examples. 

On the other hand, Soaking Damage is a list of optional house rules that you can try out at your table if you’re not particularly happy with the RAW (“Rules As Written”) in the Core Rules.  I've tried to give suggestions simliar to other rules already in the system but some of the options are definitely more gritty or cinematic than the current rules.

For the skirmish/battle rules, I have taken the existing rules and applied them to new situations so that now you can run larger battles with Torg.  You can set larger mobs on your group of characters or stage battles between two mobs. I have included an extended example pitting 8 soldiers against 100 gospog, to give you an idea.

I have provided a Gospog mob to use in the examples (and because I really wanted to use the artwork; I think it’s a cool picture!)

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
