''A note for those not used to updating wiki pages: when you're editing, at the bottom next to the Save button is a Preview button. This lets you check your changes and get them right before the final save. It's better than multiple saves because it avoids cluttering up the page history, making it easier to see the changes and reducing the storage requirements.''

A group of travellers are making their way across the Pennines from Lancashire into the County of York when ill weather forces them to stay the night in a coaching inn.  Thus, these poor unfortunates begin a nightmare descent into violence, madness and horror.

As you can see, I'm running it twice, so if there are clashes with another game hopefully I can accommodate you.  If you have a preference as to which session you wish to play in, if you could let me know?  Thanks!

[http://www.greatorkgods.co.uk Great Ork Gods] is a riotous game of savage and chaotic Orks and the gods that hate them. Character creation takes less than ten minutes (if that!) and the rules are real simple so we should be able to crack straight on to the pillaging and burning! There might even be a sneak preview of the long-rumoured finished version.

A game of dark violence in a nightmarish urban city known as Mort. A place that for 900 years has been building higher and higher and pushing the older parts of the city into decay and down under ground. From the gleaming skyscrapers of Mort Central, through the high class residences of Uptown, down through the uniformly grey and depressive surburbia. Then beyond the Wall lies the segregated world of Downtown. Where all of society's dregs eek out an meagre existance of desperation, trying to survive long enough to get home to watch TV - the only thing they live for. Yet all around them lies a world of horror, darkness, madness, chaos, crime and extreme violence (brought to you live and direct, 24/7 on SLA Industries 1001 TV channels).

As for the adventure - it'll involve the build up to and centre around the first race (the inaugral event) of the Year 100 Hydrospan Challenge Cup. The first race of the Cup being a flat out endurance run from New Freemantle to Haven with the boats hitting 300mph in open water. The players will be either at the team's land bases or in the chase boats/planes.
