* ''[[Warhammer Fantasy Battle]]'' might just as well be this trope in tabletop game form. Especially its [[Darker and Edgier]]/[[Up to Eleven]]/[[Recycled in Space]] form, ''[[Warhammer 40000]]''.

* Personified by Szuriel, Horseman of War, in ''[[Pathfinder]]''. Gorum represents the [[War Is Glorious|glory of war]], Torag [[The Strategist|strategy]], Iomedae [[The Paladin|just causes]], and Moloch [[Lawful Evil|discipline]].

* The beginning of the [[Traveller]] volume ''Sword Worlds'' shows a weary Sword Worlder soldier coming home from campaign to find his wife desperately trying to put together their ruined estate.
