Yep, you heard me right, ORX is finally here!
Yes, really! I finished it.

To satiate the appetites of the curious, I'll answer a few questions, such as: What happened to that year-end release? School (you may have noticed my recent vanishing off the face of the Earth -- 19 credits on top of family and work, something had to go). Why release now? Spring break (unless you really want to wait until summer).

113 pages, large type, unillustrated (for the moment), standard-sized, PDF-only (again, for the moment).

Congratulate me by buying a copy while I slink off into a dark cavern for a few months to rest! Or rather, vanish back into school and proceed not to rest much at all.

New to the Forge and brimming with curiousity? What is ORX, you ask?

ORX is the role-playing game about...orcs. Oh no, not another game about the most over-used bad-guy in all fantasy! Yep. But this isn’t your typical "let’s play the bad guys who aren’t so bad" or "hey, look, a detailed non-human culture" game. Heck no, this is about getting down, dirty and humorously nasty. And it isn't your father's RPG.

ORX aims to please both the casual player interested in tactics and gaming and the hardcore storyteller who loves to write novels based on his character's experiences. The game supports a range of style from dark-and-gritty to light-and-humorous, depending on the group's whim, and with no changes to the mechanics in order to play either.

ORX features an innovative system aimed at making play fun -- even while your orcs get beaten, maimed, and squished -- while staying true to the idea of what orcs are and how they go about doing things; resolution is quick and intuitive, but still provides tactical options to the players, keeping the game fresh and exciting on both story and mechanical fronts.

For the moment, you can purchase a copy via PayPal direct from me by surfing to http://orx.daegmorgan.net/purchase.htm

Please note I will fulfill orders as quickly as possible. It's just me here performing fulfillment, and unfortunately I do not have a horde of enslaved automated bots working for me; since I'm not around most of the day give me a day or so to respond before you panic.

Thanks!

Just a quick note: my domain has been down at least since I woke up this morning. I notified my hosting provider of the problem shortly after I noticed this, but have not heard back from them as of yet. As such I do not know when the site will be back up. If wish to obtain a copy of Orx in the interim, please PM or e-mail me. Apologies for any inconvenience!
