Star Borg Rebel Handbook Digital Download!
🕑 Added 2024-05-31 01:23:13 +0000 UTCThe Galactic Legion threatens the One Billion Worlds with a destructive fist. It's up to you, a group of scrappy rebels, to stop them - no matter how high the odds are stacked against you!
Star Borg is a Star Wars inspired hack of Mork Borg, a rules-light TTRPG for several players and a GM. The Rebel Handbook includes rules for creating characters, 6 classes with advancement options, equipment, species, and rules for space combat. Everything you need to get started playing!
You can download a PDF of the handbook and the printable character sheet from the link at the bottom of this post. [Updated to v1.1 on 6.6.24]
Star Borg was made in collaboration with Kyle Latino of the Map Crow Youtube channel. If you're not familiar, check him out!

As usual, there will be a round of proofreading before the zine goes out to print early next month. Shipping for Legend Tier patrons will happen as soon as the zines arrive back from the printer.
A reminder that Patreon automatically charges you on the first of every month! The Star Borg Rebel Handbook is the May zine. June's zine will be a guide for the Galaxy Master, filled with advice, adventure generators, and lots of enemies to throw at your rebels. If you have any questions or concerns, please send me a message and I'll get you taken care of!

SHIPPING UPDATE FOR APRIL AND MAY ZINES
After a misprint, I finally got Bustling Streets and Unsavory Alleyways back from the printer. Those zines will ship out to Legend Tier patrons the first week of June. And if the Little Weirdos zine comes back looking good, those will ship out the second week of June. Appreciate your patience!

Yes! Sometime this month or early next month at the latest!
Ash McMurray
Is there an estimate on when physical copies be made available on the web store? I joined after the Rebel Handbook was released, and I'd love to get a physical copy!
Andreja Popovik
Ok, I got it !!!
Andreja Popovik
Great! Thanks JP :)
JP Coovert
Zines usually ship out a month to a month and a half (sometimes longer if there is some sort of delay with the printer) after the digital version is released. The Rebel Handbooks are back from the printer and will be going out soon!
Andreja Popovik
I never got this in my mail. Is it sent already? Something that i did get a few days ago was Bustling Streets. Is it all according to plan or?
JP Coovert
If you signed up in June, you'll get the Galaxy Master Guide (released digitally at the end of the month) in the mail when it's back from the printer. Unfortunately, you'll have to wait for the Rebel Handbook to hit my online shop (patrons get a discount code!) once all three books are done. I know it's not the most ideal, but it's the only way I can stay on top of everything, being a single person operation.
Christopher Leigh-Davidson
I’d like to know this as well.
Trevor McGregor
Sorry if this is already posted some where but I am late to finding Star Borg. If I sign up for the Legend Tier am I still able to get a physical Handbook?
David Okum
Can't wait for the GM Guide! The YouTube video was tantalizing.

Not even 2 days ago I was looking at my Star Wars miniatures (circa 2004) and thought that a Star Wars/Mork Borg crossover would be really cool.
Ted Arlauskas
That would be AWESOME!
David Okum
I made some paper minis of the art from the Species book. Please enjoy! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1q77tW-j7c4PMtOKtxCu0Mmdq2IsfV1xo/view?usp=sharing
Thomas Ryan
I have realized that your next step into Star Borg COULD take a page from Forbidden Psalm...Time to paint up my Imperial Assault minis!
JP Coovert
I think they’ve already made some stuff for Star Borg!
Thomas Ryan
Are we going to have a collaboration between Okum and Coovert???
David Okum
I hope this is ok. I was very excited about Star Borg but I thought I'd expand on the 10 species included in the Rebel Handbook. I've been running a Star Wars Mork Borg campaign for some time now and I've worked to streamline the results for the rules-lite approach of Star Borg. https://drive.google.com/file/d/14h1fQtP1N90_EK4V6DZhF78svxKw_vKX/view?usp=sharing

When you complete a mission and stop the Legion in some meaningful way it's time to level up!
Thomas Ryan
What is "saving the galaxy" in game? There are abilities that trigger off that term.
JP Coovert
There won't be a different version of this one, sorry!
Robert Sandoval
Is there a printer friendly version of this yet? If not, no worries just don’t want to use that much Black ink 😅
K and S
Awesome

JP, noticed on pg 17 - Nicks #1 Sword is misspelled
JP Coovert
Might be cheaper (and better quality) to just join the Legend Tier. I'll send the zine right to you!
David Okum
I was thinking the same thing, but I think it's worth it.
David Okum
I downloaded it last night and it's a real treat! I gotta run that for my Monday night group. They'll love it! I think I'll use stuff from my Gonzo Mutants paper mini sets for it.
Stephanie
Are you in league with big printer ink? (joking) this looks fantasic, but I'm going to send it to staples to be printed instead of at home :)
Joseph George
Looks fantastic. Thank you for the easy to read fonts
Eric from Bloat Games
David, I highly recommend checking out his Teenage Mutant Tunnel Goons. I think you'd love it. :)
Eric from Bloat Games
This is the way!! Love this. Hope there is adventures, expansions, and more to come from this one. :)
Brandon
Looks great, will have to find a way to solo it
Jean-Claude Tremblay
Thank you!!!!
Wessel van Lit
My exact thought as well, shoddy would make more sense for "breaks on a blunder"
Saku Tiihonen
I'm so excited, just want to play this! The content seems great and it looks soooo good too!
CommanderRedBush
Absolutely incredible!
Scott Jarvis
Yes…Ha Ha Ha…YES!
David Okum
I would second the suggestion to add something for each species.
Lee Murphy
Loving this book, can't wait to run it! I noticed some of the items had a tag named "shotty", is it meant to be "shoddy"?
David Okum
Looking good! This got me to bite the bullet and join up! Great stuff. I've been running a Mork Borg Star Wars campaign for a few years now. It's super fun and there is lots in your zine that I can use. Love it!
Brian Peters
I just skimmed through everything. This is awesome and tons of stuff packed in it. All the classes and species you could really want. Although it would be nice if there was something per each species, but nothing to give any major bonus. Like Macrobats get a +1 hearing task or Anthrosquaches get a Boon on pulling of arms, etc. Looks like tons of fun though for sure.
Matias Navarrete-Lamas
Thank you for the shipping update, and thank you for the amazing content! Can't wait for star borg!
Jason
May the dice be with you!
Dano O'Connor
So stoked for these! Thanks JP and Kyle
Richard May
Awesome!!!
