      3 months late to the party, but all you really need to play the game is the base Forbidden Psalm book. That has all the rules and a campaign. There is a currently running Kickstarter for a new standalone game called Forbidden Psalm: Endless Horrors From Between The Stars.

    I love this "Why I like it" series.
    I can see how this presentation makes it easy to think up a skirmish warband.
    I would've liked to hear something about the game rules that make it worthwhile to check out other than you have move and action.
    Will check out Kill Sample Process, cyberpunk is a fun genre.

      I'm in the same boat; left wondering what it is about the rules of these games that would make me want to try it out. I love cool settings and such but if the lore section isn't the main draw, it would be good to hear about what the *game* part of these games do that others don't that make them worth the time. I love good art and presentation of books too, but I am left wondering if there's anything of note here besides that, because rules-light skirmish games are a dime a dozen these days.

    Uncle Atom thank you for FINALLY been doing a video on this great game! My group and I have been playing this for months now, we went to it after frostgrave. It has excellent dark atmosphere and there's a lot to explore! I suggest all new players to buy Mork Borg rulebook with it as well to have as a lore book to go with Psalm for the setting! And there's also a world war 1 style one too!

    I finally picked up Dread Nights and The Last War. Then immediately ordered 30 Germans from Wargames Atlantic. Some to build as Zealots with Trench Clubs. A few others to build as Loyal. And the rest to build as my basic crew. I will pick up a sprue of British and French from them later on. Foundry has some lovely Field Artillery and Tanks I can use as the Haunted Tank, etc.
    I think my next part of my project will be some barbed wire to wrap around some zombies...
    Then just making some stake and wire lines and building some basic trench lines for some of the scenario maps.

    For Last War here's some good house rules to use, my group and I have been using these and the creator of the game approved of them too on the FB group:
    - have no man's land areas between trenches designated as difficult ground, which case it has the "muddy" rule as listed in the conditions section
    - Barb wire rules: models must take a toughness test dr12 to move through or leave barb wire. If failed stop half way through and take cruel 1 damage. If passed move completely normal
    - broken windows/weak areas in terrain walls can be broken through with strength dr12 test if touching it. If succeeded you can move through it otherwise stop and waste action
    - when using an order, you must blow a world war 1 whistle replica and shout "order!" for it to work
    - gas and smoke grenades damage are cruel

    Unfortunately, being an old fart, both Mork Borg and Forbidden Psalm share the "visually interesting" layout that makes both reading and refencing rules during play, an absolute chore. I'm not paying for doing eye gymnastics. It's a game rulebook, not a provocative art performance.
    I understand I'm missing out, but within my tragically limited gaming resource economy (time, energy, enthusiasm, etc.), this effort is just not a viable enterprise.
