I had built a Clone and Droid army for Star Wars legion and some friends who are not into 40k but are really into Star Wars wanted to play. The ruleset for Legion is rough and extremely overcomplicated for what it needs to be (tons of token, cards, specialized measuring, basically spreadsheet stats). Tutorials online are 45-60 mins for basic gameplay and I forgot half the shit I watched. I turned to OPR since I know 40k, converted the SW Legion units over to the system and even made new units that are not in the official game. When it was game night, within 5 minutes, I explained the rules and we were already playing with little-to-no downtime. Everyone, guys and gals alike had a blast and *loved it*, this is coming from people that have never touched a wargame in their life. TL;DR - OPR saved my Star Wars Legion game night and is a super flexible system for basically anything.

40k died a bit at my local club over the past year, OPR has revived the 40k players and OPR is played every week

Correction: While you DO get the full rulebooks by signing up to the OPR Patreon, you can also just _buy_ the full rulebook PDFs. In the event that you don't want to make the financial commitment. (The custom points calculator is still Patreon-only, though). There are plenty of reasons to go with Patreon. You get the full rules, as mentioned, and you also get discounts on the STL files for OPR's range of miniatures. You know, if you know you want to build an entire army or three from their line. It's just not mandatory.

Added plus: you don’t run the risk of having larger swaths of your army go obsolete because of a BS codex or edition revision!

One of us! This game is so simple I can play with my 10 yo, and do quite regularly. Yet it plays very differently against an adult opponent who is thinking more strategically. Like others have said, I love that the game is decided on the table top more than with gotcha rules.

Cheers to Wyloch and Knarb for plugging this fantastic rules! I gave up 40k at 2nd edition and this was a great way to get back into the hobby and easily teach my kids! I think it lets you focus on the big strategies rather than the unending grind and rules bloat from GW!!

Grimdark Future For The Win. I've been playing for about 8 months now, about 30 games. I have no plans to go back to 40K. GF has 'on table tactics' that 40K cannot hope to match. So many ways it is better. I've been playing wargames for over 40 years, and One Page Rules has delivered a breath of fresh air.

I have really gotten into one page rules myself, I knew of their models but there is such a good community behind it. Hard to pass up, great video mate.

I don't know if you've ever tried it, but I've found that OPR works really well when you have more than 2 players to a game. I played a 4 person FFA awhile back and had a blast. The alternate activations make everything seem to go by much faster. Can't say enough good things about it

I've transitioned to the indie system 'F28 - War Always Changes' instead. It support large battles, skirmishes (akin to both Kill Team or Necromunda) and Narrative scenerios (that use a GM!) that's mix wargaming with tabletop rpg. (Same core rules for all 3 sizes but more complicated gear and feats the smaller you go) You can use your 40k armies as they are or do whatever you want. Your Bolt Action platoons could go up against a friends Napoleonic army without changing any rules

Great video, man! I liked the format. Also a very nice looking army at the end.

Printing and painting game pieces + playing OPR with my friends is getting me through a difficult time right now. I can't say enough good things about the system. Definitely try the other missions out, as well as secondary missions. You can spice it up too by playing with command points and additional actions.

What's absolutely amazing too with this system, is that if you find an issue or have a suggestion, you can just hop onto the discord and talk to Gaetano directly, and if he thinks your feedback makes sense, he'll just make the change in the new 2.50 beta, that basically automatically updates all the pdfs and army rules instantly

I remember playing the game in 2015 when I found a thread posted by some fa/tg/entlemen and got a pal of mine to get his old WH40K armies out and we had some good times. the rules were so easy that even if he did not speak English, I could just explain them to him and make it work. good job Ferrara, good job.

Started playing OPG Grimdark future as I couldn't keep up with releases of GW rulebooks & erratas. I'm not a fastest painter. By the time I could build a half of my SoB army, a new codex come out. I was just ARGH... I couldn‘t get the rules from last codex. With a new codex, which I purchased by the way, I was just overwhelmed. But with OPR GDF I could start just after a day of reading the rules and I could remember all of the rules. BTW, OPR miniatures for hive fleet look much better than Tyranids.

OPR is genuinely better and easier to start table top wargaming and 40k than GW’s recommendation to start with kill team which ironically is MORE difficult to start playing than 40k itself. Go figure!

I had been playing 40K since 1992, but gave up on the game in recent years because of the endless rules bloat: the supplements, strategems, formations, FAQs, points drop/rises all the damn time. Forget it. I discovered One-Page Rules this year, and my excitement at playing my 40K armies again has been rejuvenated.

A big advantage to OPR is that, because a game takes very little time to play out, it's much easier to fit a match into the players' schedules. You don't need to carve out four hours of your day, not including packing and travel time, just to play. Between that and not having to commit countless hours keeping up with minute rules changes from month to month, OPR is just not that big a life commitment. People can actually just play now.

I also transitioned to OPR and kicked GW to the curb after 30 years of playing it on and off since Rogue Trader.. great games, fast game play, no convoluted rule book spread and adjustable rule complexity. I love it!

One page rules is amazing. I've been playing it for a while now. So much better then 40k. Good to see you playing it mate. You are going to have much fun with it 😉👍. If you purchase the full rulebook there are good ways to Play competitive and many more cool add ons.

yes! i started playing OPR GDF 4 weeks ago and played 6 games and i have a very hard time going back to 40k. the only thing missing is 1-2 competitive and fair missions with fixed Objective positions like in 40k. buti had 2 draws 3 wins and a loss. it is a matter of time until a comp Missio set makes this game more competitive. great video and thanks for sharing

The rules are very dense and complicated for W40K, so I never really got into it besides getting some Vehicle Minis from the Death Guard (Because they rule) I painted all of my Plague Marines and spent days thinking about their weapon choices, etc. I only ever got to play some Kill Team with a friend, but even then, you needed some very specific minis. So I kind of Quit GW around last year too and looked around and found FROSTGRAVE, TURNIP28 and even Gaslands. It is so surprising what some easy to learn Rules and a "Just do what you want" kind of attitude to army or model building can do for a Hobbyist. W40K is a game of precise strategy, of wrapping your head around 100 different things to efficiently use the few turns you have. But.. sometimes you just want to grab some treasure, smack a Skeleton with a Spell and be done with it.

Grimdark Future is like 3rd & 4th edition 40K in some respects. They also have great STL files for 3D printing.

He makes a really good point about random fan rules. While I could probably get my group to play something I put together, no one else is going to want to because everyone has their own ideas of what makes 40k better. The same is also true with playing any non-current edition. You certainly can, but most people are going to want to play what's most accessible. Add to that the issues with 40k, meaning that by the time you've "fixed the game," you might as well be playing something different anyways.

3rd was my fist ed as well. the Big Black Book was a fun rule set and it was ALL the rules you had to have. Mini-Dex's came out in magazaine format Models were high but box sets made them buyable.. gee seems like all the things that GrimDark does are the things the 3rd did well.. and that GW forgot over time.

I've never played warhammer but sometime last year I got a bug to paint models like when I was a kid. I bought a GW box to paint and started learning about all the game and lore and game-space. It didn't take long for me to abandon Warhammer and find One Page Rules, 3D printing, and the heart of what this hobby is. The rules make the hobby so appoachable, I was able to get my mom to play One Page Rules Age of Fantasy Skirmish and she had a good time with it. I even got her setup with a small custom team of models that matched her personality in a matter of days. Where else can you find something that flexible and convenient? We played another game on another occasion, by her prompting, this time running some of the alternative rules and it really mixed things up and made it more fun. One Page Rules puts you in the driver seat and lets you make the game into what you want; short or long, complex or simple, esport or RPG, cookie cutter or literally full custom army. I would have never gotten into wargaming without OPR and I'm very thankful to have found it.

3rd edition 40k had a wonderful cheat sheet that was all you needed for movement shooting and assaults, which was all you needed as a kid playing last man standing.

Thanks for shining more light on OPR. Their printable model line is fantastic. GW really needs more competition in the hobby space. And the bloated rules with very little thought into balance really needs addressing.

One last thing to mention about OPR: for those wanting to run a game closer to the older Warhammer Fantasy Battles (so-called "rank and flank" combat), there's a version of Age of Fantasy that does this, called Age of Fantasy: Regiments. It's built off the same mechanics as regular AoF, but has rules for placing units into formations, facing, pivoting, etc. It's not going to be as crunchy as WHFB - it's still One Page Rules - but it operates more to the playstyle that rank-and-flank games are used to. This also means that people who are more interested in Historical wargaming (Napoleonics, Medieval, Ancient) can use the rules as well, so long as they limit themselves to appropriate armies/units. (The same can be said of "Bleakpowder" style games, like Sludge or Turnip28).

I might give this a go sometime, but I normally just play 40k using older editions (4th and sometimes 2nd)

Awesome bugs! And great interview/insight into OPR. I joined the Patreon a while back and printed out all the stuff for Grimdark Future: Firefight to give my now stalled Necromunda project a purpose ($5 or free vs about $300 in books? Ok). It wasn't quite the old fashioned rules (photocopy of a photocopy of someones self-published free set) we used to play when I was a lad - that was also back when fanzines came as mimeographed sheets stapled together. When they were fresh they smelled like PVA. What was I saying? Oh yeah, anyway great vid and thanks for helping push back against the Dark Path™ of wargaming that a certain cabal in Nottingham is advancing. Cheers!

"Draw the rest of the owl" -- love it

I played killteam a few years ago, it never had the funds to build a full 40k army. If I couldn't afford it, I wouldn't even dream of trying to teach it to my gaming groups. With OPR and Grimdark Future, I've gotten 5 of them excited to keep playing. Some of them are now painting their own armies too, which they also had no interest in doing either.

Have been playing 40k since 2nd Ed. Played my first game of OPR yesterday an I'M A FAN❕️

Playing Grimdark Future with only the basic ruleset is ok if you want a very casual and straightforward type of wargaming, but if you want a more competitive experience, I beg you to get the full rulebook, and play using at least the first 15 pages + the extra actions on page 20. These extra actions add SO MUCH to the way the game plays out, providing you new ways to exploit your units and introducing a whole layer of mind-games in trying to predict your opponent's next actions. They make the game much more tactical and interesting, really turning it into a competitive experience while still keeping the game an easy-to-learn-and-play system.

Onepagerules is my favorit tabletop system so far. Great game

As a dad with kids that are involved in numerous activities I don’t have as much time as I used to. One page rules really appeals to me.

I played 40k and fantasy back in the 90's, wasn't cheap even then. But I saw the trend going into the 2000's, and just stopped playing. I was also working with my friend at the time who owned a comic book shop, and was looking to expand his CCG tournaments and fit in table top gaming. So I helped him set up stuff, and had first hand experience working with GW America. Let me tell you some crooked ass sales people back then, not to mention the amounts you had to order and the complete trash they pushed. I can remember when Dark Eldar came out, I had ordered a small amount of it. No one wanted it, and no one was going to drop their expensive ass army to make one. I walked into the store one day, and we had cases of Dark Eldar. The sales rep went around me, and lied to the owner about how great the shit was, I don't think we ever sold any. In the end, the owner found a 3rd party source for GW models. He had no minimum order amount, and was getting a cheaper price from the 3rd party then from GW.

OPR has been really fun for us. dont think i can go back to gw for awhile

Well. OPR for the win.

Cheers to One Page Rules!! Revolution within the hobby!

We’ve been playing OPR Grimdark future for about a year now. So much better than the complicated power creep trash GW rules has been putting out since the 8th edition Space Marine release

Welcome to OPR I love them they are amazing the rules are great! also if you are into printing their models are better and better each month, more details, more complex and great looking. The rules are in my opinion is better, can add extra rules in as you wish for more complex play with the full rules, most armies are pretty well balanced and if they arent they try to fix them pretty fast. (Prime Brothers are a bit insane though, I hope they add more units to the normal Brothers)

That was an interesting interview and the conversions look great!

Lol! That's my Telemon model! Love the paintjob you've put on it!

I have to try this out. Also great Idea on the tissue paper on the base. I like that touch. And those are awesome bugs. I want to get some.

Lots of reasons to quit 40k. Glad things like one page rules were there as a landing spot. We also went back and started playing older editions of 40k like 3rd and 5th. AOS was replaced by kings of war and conquest. MCP, infinity, battletech and malifaux have all seen table time in our handful of get togethers before the lock downs started relaxing. I can tell you we won't be putting current edition 40k or aos on a table any time in the near future, if ever.

I love to play tournaments and to get in reps with and against competetive lists, so even though I like the idea this is not reaching all the way, yet at least. Best thing about GW games are the enormous player base.

Oathmark represent! Miniature agnostic is the future.

Although i have never played opg i really like to see alternative activation. In most cases i like to play with smaller 40k armies since big armies are mostly just more expensive and doesn't really add to much to the gameplay except a cooler easthetic. I mostly find myself winning or losing in the first turn (since the boards are smaller) which just makes it feel arbitrary to keep on playing after round one.

That paper in front of your lamp has got to be a fire hazard.

I’m going to follow you mate ! I’d love to play 40k but i ain’t rich.

Your video states the obvious point; tournament play, James from Worksop’s belief this is the future at all cost and the and it’s tournament players ruined 40k. I remember playing a games in the Nottingham store around 95 where the points system wasn’t heard of, unbalanced armies, weak one beating strong ones; a better time. If you like OPR the. BoltAction will blow you away.

Games people can actually play should be a higher priority to designers :)

amazing you are collabing with Trent too, (a bit jealous lol) looking forward to being able to collab with you guys is the only thing that keeps me trying to make something of my channel lol

Alternative activation is simply better. U can play Warhammer that way... Kill team and Warcraft already do this. It works better anyways

One Page Rules is the warhammer I play

Those Genestealers with wings look great.

Wow! Your game-board is HUGE! One Page Rules looks really fun. I haven't done much gaming, I've only played once or twice in my life and that was a long time ago. Starship Trooper is awesome, both the book and the movie (a rarity). What are you spraying onto your CA glue - an accelerant? What kind? Also, it's very cool watching you airbrush. I need to invest in one. Nice work, Knarb! p.s. Your camera work is great!

really like the look of your bugs! The GW look bit sameish to me personally, so it is cool to see bit of a remix. the lil winged ones give me a bit of a nostalgic Zergling vibe, and the humanoid rifle bugs are simply badass! and yeah check out OPR everyone. even if you have nonexistent attention span, you'll like it.

My Warhammer group sort of stopped playing 40k when 9th came out. The pandemic and a new ruleset sort of made for a decent stopping point. Not to mention that Warhammer had lost it's soul over the years. It felt more and more like a corporate cash grab banking on the players sunken-cost fallacy. Which is interesting, since the store's policy is to almost ignore the regular customers. I guess over time you realize the cynicism of it all. Recently though we started looking at One Page Rules, because we said "we want to sort of find a way to still use our armies, but Warhammer seems to have lost the plot lately"

I really love the concise nature of One Page Rules. I really wanted to get into either Warcry or Kill Team, but without having to get ripped off... I basically can create whatever I want now and go at it in either Firefight or the Skirmish for AoF. it's a great website. well done to the creators and thank you.

try warsurge toooo.

40k has been mince since 4th ed. GW refuses to admit their you go I go system is dated and needs completly revamped.

I play about once a month, but I might take a look at these one page rules.

The OPR army grows.

Is there an army builder available? Paper lists seem pretty ancient

I'm a bit of an OPR evangelist at my hobby store. Got some people into it

I played only Kill Team. Screw BigHammer, it's too clunky and nowadays it's just pushing waves of miniatures at each other. Now I play Bushido (fantasy skirmish on 30mm bases). It's indie, it's obscure, it's founded with Kickstarter and produced probably in a garage, has metal minis, but designs are really neat and by far the best mechanics I seen, with interactive combat and actual importance of maneuvers

lol i love OPR and the entire idea, i may be a bit salty about it tho cause i tried to get him to collaborate with a few youtubers last year and he basically laughed me out of the room...... still its better then the way GW treats us i guess

yo what are those roads you put down on the gameboard?

honestly the story behind OPR is exactly why i quit 40k and started up my own game (its a fan made game based off a different series not connected to 40k) i would have loved to still play 40k but there is WAAY to many things GW has done that killed the game for me. all the things hes talking about with how to keep the game short, fun but still gives allot options for strategy is a real pain in the ass lol

Just for info you dont need army template if you use their new online army builder.

OPR has the opposite problems of 40k.

Thank you so much for makin`this vid!

I think OPR is doing great things for the hobby but the game lacks depth for my tastes. 20 years ago I would have been well into it but these days the nostalgia is hitting too strong and I'm getting back into 2e 40k!

ONE PAGE RULES FTW!!!!

one page rules ,rules mate :)

I'm surprised you got a lot of draws, the games I've played almost always one side gets tabled.

The interview was cool and the minis look great, but when you said you weren’t sponsored and would speak your mind on the game I expected a few more in depth opinions than games good, may be too simple for some folks lol.

Sweet models, but a part of me cries knowing there is a Hive Tyrant missing its tail.

1 page > 1 ton of books lol - really want to give that rule system a shot sometime!

Really cool video! Makes me want to get into a war game 😎👍

Thanks for this, just got into opr and love.

If you switch on the subtitles it calls genestealers "jean stealers". :Ddd Watch out! Those guys will steal your jeans!

I really have to take a look at Fantasy (hoping that it is more like WHFB and not AoS)

One Page Rules!!!! YAAASSSS!!! 40K is overrated, overpriced and overplayed. Good on you to leave 40k and play something that is FREE and leagues better!

What is that spray you are using as super glue kicker?

Those models look cool, but I don't have much of an interest myself in getting a 3d printer.

I agree that the game needs fixing. It needs a more advanced ruleset allowing for more strategy. For now it just seems as if a good way to show off your models and have them interact

F- YEAH OPR!

Why keep giving them money when you can buy 3D printer and get specks from OPR for 10 bucks a month plus the rule books and when you pay monthly you always can print as many as you want

Это зерги? А прочие: протосы и терраны будут? Или Жнецы (пожиратели) против команды капитана из Масс Эффекта?

Oh wow, I haven't heard about tomorrow war in forever.

As a noob I think 9th ed 40K SUCKS. It is endless rules and OP of the month model grifting. I hate it. I thought it was going to be chess with guns. OPR is more what I wanted 40k to be and I actually find it fun to play.

Зашёл на сайт: 1) для каждой армии свой лист; 2) террэйн такой же; 3) правила те же; 4) армии те же что и в вархаммер 40000... В чём преимущество этой игры? Или просто без перевода мало что понятно?

Nice video! after seeing it I started the research of those "fly wings" but without success, where I can find them? they look like the one on Thingiverse but not quite... Thanks in advance! and keep up with the content! 😁

back in the old days when tg was still good

"I quit Warhammer" is the new "I quit Facebook". Everyone needs to make statement leaving and then after awhile they come back like nothing happened. Great video.
