GorkaMorka in 15mm

I have thought of converting GM to a 15mm game for years but could not figure how to alter the rule for this scale. We I decided to play a solo game to see what I needed to change.

So I created two mods using 15mm boys. The boys on foot are from GZG. The bikes are OOP, the gunner in from The Ion Age Malig range. The trukk is a matchbox (still under construction) and the buggy is a plastic card creation with match box wheels.

Here are the Wild Krakas MC











Here are the Skid Markas















So in game one I decided to only change the range and measurement. The 28mm game uses inches for measurement and I went with 1/2ing the measurements. To be honest this did not work well at all. After playing the game I did not need to change any thing else the game rules really do not cater to scale. Yes I will have to use templates from my 15mm game systems but that is fine.

For my second game I decided to make a measuring stick marking lines every 1/2 and inch. I now just replace the inch for 1/2 an inch for range and distance. So when a model moves 4" he really moves 2" So Really I am using 1" = 1/2" for 15mm.

Her are some photos of the second game n order of play. Please keep in mind this scale dose not make for great photos, but allows you to play on a very small space. I used my painting desk for this game and have plenty of room for both mods to have at it.


The Wild Krakas on the left and the Skid Markas on the right


The Wild Krakas move on to the scrap


The Skid move to block and grab some of the scrap


Her you can see that one of the bikes is taking on the truck, well the drive went OOA on that hit.


The Buggy races over to the Wild Nob, and the Skid Nob jumped off in to HTH


Just north of the trukk a Skid boy jumps on a biker


The biker and the boy still in HTH as well as the Nobs


The Wild Nob Madhacka looses to the Skid Nob Migthy Wakka. Also the Biker falls to the boy and goes OOA. This ended the game with a bottling out og the Wild Krakas MC.

MadDoc the mini

Well I won a GorkaMorka Pain boy (Bad Doc) from eBay this week. I was able to make an offer less then the other listed, some were as high as $50 for a painted one, and $35. for new in box. As I am going to open it, and paint it my self they did not enter my wish list. I made a good offet of $15. and the seller took the offer. With shipping it was a total of $18.50. That is a bit high for me as i like to buy supper cheap, but I needed a mini for my new Google Profile "MadDoc Gubbins".

Out of the package, here is the Doc



An overnight in the dip (paint remover) here he is.

Now I re-assembled him and tweaked him just a bit, and gave him a new GM base, with extra stability added.

GorkaMorka Ridez!

OK in my last post I showed my Boyz, now here are the Ridez.

The Bikes. Kit bashed from ShockForce bikes (oop).


The Trakz

 Work in progress.


The Buggiez

 I had this snotling for 20 years and just had to mount it on this buggy.



 Here is my Orky idea of turbo heat the fuel before it goes in the engine. Still have mroe work to do on this before paint.

The Truckz

 This was a big project as I only had the main chassis and one tire. I won it on eBay in a grab bag of bitz, and boyz. I made a mold of the tires from another truck and cast them out of water putty. I had to make the back out of card stock and a HK launcher tube. Added more bitz from my 40K bitz box and I love it.


The Wagonz. These were a hand me down from an old friend who got out of the hobby. I have them very basic but plan to add more tom them. I have a wreck-a-ball for the green one.




 The party Ride.

The Boyz a photo shoot from Gorkamorka!

Well I have been seeing some posts about GM lately with the new Mad Max movie out now. So I thought I would do a photo shoot of all my GM stuff.

Today I am starting with the Boyz of GM. As you will see these boyz are in all different forms of completeness. Some are fully painted, some are primed, some are started, and some have the last owners paint job. GorkaMorka is one of my all time loves when it comes to miniature war gaming, and I have been collecting from the day it came out. I am all ways on eBay looking for some GM boyz and bits. I have gotten some great deals from eBay over the years.












 Here is the bitz. I have 11 boyz still on the spru, and lots of bitz in my bitz box.




 Enjoy.
