The Great Emu War
The evil Australian Army is armed with two Machine Guns, but you and your fellow brave emus of the First Guerilla Emu Brigade are ready.  A silly one-page TTRPG, inspired by wonderful games by Grant Howitt, for 3-8 players and a GM.  Feel free to adjust the number of dice in the Morale Pools - the rule works great in a quick game with 4-6 players and a GM. If you'd like to play longer or have a smaller group, put more dice there at the start of the game! Submitted as part of the Finally Finish Something 2023 jam. All text and art by MrsPlatypus.
