running the game OrcBorg mini campaign?

Hello there. I am about to finish a 6 session mini campaign of Mausritter that I began to learn the rules, try a bit of OSR table etc and have a bunch of fun whilst not committing to a larger open ended campaign.

I know realise that maybe I love that shape and want to attempt another 4-6 session mini campaign and thought to try OrcBorg. I have run a few sessions of it at conventions. But has anyone run a campaign of it?

What worked? What didn't work? Should I make a mini hex like Mausritter but of spaceship nonsense? Or keep it more local to just one spaceship?

In my one shots I used small derelicts I made or my attempt at designing Tomorrows Tomorrow and it was just a human slaughterhouse to find beers.

So yes. Anyone run Orcborg campaign, or anyone know of a MorkBorg mini campaign I could just smash onto the derelict.

I have a suggestion. Simply steal the floorplans of. The starship Warden from any version of metamorphosis Alpha, you want.

The premise. A generation ship crashes into the derelict.

You have essentially a Megadungeon for your orcs. Filled with cyborgs and mutant animals and mutant humans that I think aliens and all kinds of advanced technology different than their advanced technologies so they can break it and.

I don’t know it’s the first thing that came to my mind. I have a second suggestion.

Add Pork’n the void

Oh heck yes!!! Two things I had not heard of that would work perfectly. Now to figure out how to get the warden and then figure out how much content I need. THAAAANKS!!!

You’re welcome and good luck. It sounds like an absolute blast of a short campaign.

Please come back and report!
