If anyone remembers the games-workshop classic game "gorkamorka", chances are you'll love to see this mod created! Currently we have a mapper(me) and concept artist.

General info
Battle in gangs of savage ork greenskins across a desert wasteland with trucks, buggies and more! Battle for metal scrap between an other gang in a movie like action adventure complete with high speed chases, drive-by's and more.
Game play
The gameplay will be team based with two opposing gangs of orks (yet to be decided which clans will make the appearance) that will be totally mobilized by vehicles for transportation, which will be fighting over a scrap heap in the center of the map. A team will have to go to the center and take hold of the scrap and bring it all the way back to their “garage”. Only a single chunk of scrap will spawn at time, which encourages movie-esque vehicle pursuits and “drive-by” shootings from vehicle passengers
The game is essentially about vehicular warfare.
Scrap
Scrap is a constructive resource needed to build weapons/vehicles or virtually anything practical for the gangs. Consider it as a sort of currency in this game.
The more scrap you have, the better weapons, vehicles and armor your gang will get. Players will be able to purchase things using the team’s scrap pool total and there will be a limit to how much a player can spend according to the current number of scrap points (to avoid player’s selfishly using up all the team’s scrap for himself).
Gang members
There will be several classes to choose from when you join a team, each with their own abilities and downsides. There will also be RPG elements added in to the mix to gain new abilities. New abilities are gained by receiving a certain number of “mob points” which in turn are gained by sticking within close proximity to your teammates. To compliment this, the scoreboard will not count personal score, but the whole team’s score combined as one.
Classes are as follows:
-Boy
The standard adult ork ganger, his non-combat stats and abilities are in the middle between the other classes, which makes him decent enough at handling all tasks. He is primarily characterized by his high combat abilities, which gives him the edge in shooting and close combat.
-Yoof
“Yoofs” are ork youths in society, they are usually weaker and smaller that full grown boys. Known as cunning deceitful pranksters in ork society, they make good use of this during combat when they employ rather sneaky tactics to get the edge over a full-grown orks despite their wimpy physique and strength.
-Mek
Other orks see meks as “odd” orks that would prefer to spend their day in their mekshop tinkering with their latest vehicle creation as opposed to going out and bashing up some other orks (which meks love too, but they prefer creating machinery). They are naturally skilled drivers and can create things for the gang using scrap.
-Nob
There can only be one nob per team. The nob is the biggest and most respected ork in the gang, what he does, they all do in order to avoid being seriously bonked on the head by him. When a player reaches a certain number of “mob points” they have the option to be become a nob. The nob has increased stats and abilities and has leadership bonuses to other teammates around him (bonuses such as increased strength and accuracy).
Modular vehicles
The mod will try to introduce customizable vehicles into the source engine. In-game this will done rather simply, the team’s mek may choose to spend scrap points from the team pool to upgrade a vehicle with different engines, weapons, armor, wheels (or even treads). This is almost essential to the mod since personalization is a huge part of playing orks in warhammer 40,00 tabletop, and this feels the best way to do it with a current day pc gaming technology.
