The comic book based on the game of the same name. Torg[1] is a cinematic cross-genre tabletop role-playing game, created by Greg Gorden and Bill Slavicsek, with art by Daniel Horne, and published by West End Games (WEG) in 1990. Game resolution uses a single twenty-sided dice, drama cards and a logarithmic results table. This later formed the basis for WEG's 1992 sci-fi RPG Shatterzone, and its 1994 universal RPG Masterbook. Torg is set on Earth, against an alien invasion, players play archetypal heroes from differing genres. WEG produced over fifty supplements, novels, and comics for the first edition. A revised and expanded core rulebook was produced in 2005,[2] with a single adventure. After WEG closed in 2010 Torg was sold to Ulisses Spiele, who after a successful crowd-funding campaign published a new edition called Torg: Eternity in 2018. The titualar Torg is a title that individual leaders of the invasion strive to achieve. |
