I think that they are following the 3d print equivalent of the Mantic Games' strategy. Make the GW proxy forces to draw people in, and then eventually sprinkle in your own unique IP armies/games once you have an audience. I would like to see them keep up both types of forces in tandem. While GW keeps disenfranchising their customer base, why not stand on the sidelines and pass out cake to draw people in. That is just extra resources for them to pump out more cool stuff!

Someone about a month ago suggested that 3D printing was idiot proof. At the time I was sitting on enough money to buy three or four of the Christmas battleforces since I don’t really buy models unless they’re in big bundles. I had signed up to one page rules Patreon back in November on their second tier it cost about as much as a rulebook and a codex and I just wanted to support them because they put all the rules up online for free. So This person had a link on her channel to Anycubic. So I went over and bought a mono X. This is probably the best miniature based purchase I have ever made. Turns out the monthly STL that you get on patron happens whether you know about it or not. After I got a printer and looked into it I had a lizard man army, Beast man army a robot legion army some alien hive and the eternal dynasty armies just sitting there waiting for me. Plus bases game aids markers little rulers. DICE! I think they’ve said that they’re going to be coming out with demons in the next couple months because they’re playable in fantasy and sci-fi. So if you’re in the demons there’s a heads up and I think they’re redoing sisters.

@Rakaziel 2 жыл бұрын

They are finishing the Saurians in April - June (and scifi Jackals in May-July) - then 4 months of demons (July - October) and then Sisters and Ratmen (if I remember right) - Albeit the best Ratmen deal is Resin Warfare's campaign on MMF - and Archvillain Games' March release. There are more but these are the ideal "starter pack".

Should they continue making new factions instead of rehashing GW and Mantic? Absolutely, it's important that the option is still there but I think it'll garner more respect as a game system with that aspect of it's growth. I also think that the Unit Builder is the most underrated feature that OPR has to offer for its game system. You can do "counts as" for the vast collection of Confrontation, Warmahordes, Runewars, and any other game system or miscellaneous miniature out there but it sure feels special when you can tailor those minis to your unique vision and I would love to see the feature expanded to custom abilities and spells. I ran the equivalent of a Frostgrave wizard and his crew against my friends' stock Ogres list for a game of AoF Skirmish and we both had a blast.

Usually a 70% off discount on older files- so they’re even cheaper than you outlined here! Also, welcome packs change regularly!

A point that i never see being considered in videos about 3D printing is that being able to print your own miniatures gives you (the user/consumer) the freedom to create and modify or replace all miniatures with models that you see fit your own imagination. Of course, there has always been green stuff and kitbashing for that BUT, the first requires high level sculpting skills whilst the second forces you to buy entires boxes of miniatures and still constrains your wish of customization within boundaries related to those already existing shapes and designs.

Should they continue making proxies or forge ahead with new armies? It's gotta be both. Which sounds like a wishy-washy, "I'm not making a decision," option, but it's not. They need to pull in dissatisfied WH[40k|FB] players AND they need to develop their own identity. The Eternals are *amazing*, but so are their Beastmen. Oh, and Beastmen are a viable faction now. One thing about this model of business is that, and I don't think I've heard anyone in the GW/minis KZfaq community talk about is the rather insidious process of GW *deliberately* power-creeping armies through codices so that there's always one or two "the best" armies for that season, half-year, whatever. The fact is, GW will NEVER, EVER actually "balance" their game because they want to sell minis and rulebooks. OPR? Doesn't work that way. The rules are free. That is a HUGE HUGE HUGE difference in how the two games are played, respectively. Look at your beastmen army. Ready to go from the get-go: Is now and always will be balanced. Or you could wait another few years for a couple of pages in a magazine somewhere, you know, like normal people do. ;)

I know a few other 3D model creators have stores that are allowed to print and sell on there behalf. Does OPR have anything like this?

It's even more of an unfavourable comparison because for the entire time I've subscribed to OPR (8 months) the discount has been 70%. Love the hair BTW.

Thinking and talking of OnePageRules always reminds me of chess: only 6 different minis, 64 fields, simple rules but hard to master. An unbelievable complex game. Also a plus: The simplier the rules are, the more balanced a game is. I will have my first game on sunday. (blue) Battle Brothers against Xeno-Alien-Monsters 😉

Good comparison. I always use card games as my example. GW is yu-gi-oh and OPR is poker. Much simpler rules but you win by playing better instead of having bought the newest product ;)

Fairplay the 3d printed models actually look like the file format, very impressed with the quality whilst i remain unimpressed with GW practises and price

I do thing it needs to be said that 3D printing doesn't really work for some people who live in tiny apartments, or share an apartment with many people. The things spit out toxic fumes and waste products that aren't super safe unless you have a dedicated room with ventilation. OPR has a solution to that! Most of their minis are available officially on Only-Games as pre-printed resin miniatures, and they even have Starter Armies that come at a discount. I share an apartment, and have a tiny room to myself, so that's way better for me.

You had a haircut, looks great 👍 Also... great comparison between GW and OPR... thanks for that. We just got into 3d printing to start playing Epic Armaggedon again set in the Horus Heresy... cheap and fun, can't go wrong!

OPR is awsome, since I play it I have FUN using my minis. All the time with GW I felt exaustex, becuase rules, Codexes and Meta changed so often.. More often I get a chance to play....

OPR have 70% off sales all the time for patreon members, its a great chance to pick up an entire army for the cost of a unit pack from GW.

Great video and review. I hope you can cover the rules or a give a gameplay video of OPR games. I know it would be different from your normal videos but it would help the game grow and get out there even more.

OK, I have to say it. "Your hair cut is cute AF Bud". And that little purple patch is great too. ;) Ok that out of the way I'm a HUGE proponent of 3d printing your miniatures. Yes it is kind of a pain but it is also super cheap in the long run and OPRs are the way of the future. The rules are all up front and there is no updates hiding behind a paywall. I see bad times ahead for GW once the masses learn about this stuff. Thanks for putting this out in the universe Bud.

While I don’t want to make a Beastman army, I do want a Tzaangor main DoT army… basically the same thing.

One of the things that I've always been a fan of is the Seraphon... lore... I love the Seraphon lore. I'm sad that GW basically abandoned the mini line, so when I saw OPR's line of Lizardmen I fell in love because they look exactly like how I've always imagined the Seraphon.

Sooo, with the new haircut, can we expect more Sisters of Battle and less angry Vulcans in the future? Would be nice, Sisters of Battle are intimidating, but angry Vulcan scares me.

@chrisgoodier6825 2 жыл бұрын

Woo OPR! Great vid. More OPR please! 🙂 There are also the welcome pack STL’s with the patreon. (Not sure you mentioned them). Aliens Hives and Feudal Guardsmen this quarter. I’d like to see more guardsmen variants - beastmen guardsmen anyone (it’s in the old lore). Would also be good to see more minis which would work for cyberpunk settings like Infinity. PS. Digging the new haircut.

Before 8th edition I actually built a basement army. I actually remember buying some members for the basement Army from a guy on Craigslist 50 bucks got me two sets of Gor's and ungors, a painted great unclean one, a sixth edition Giant, an 8th edition giant that had been converted with some plague boils on it, Bela'kor and 20 Bestigors all for $50. And then of course I acquired some other models from saving up my tip money when I was doing pizzas and then going to the game store to buy the beast herds. Think I bought eight boxes. The 2 minotaur lords I called the Red Bull and the Black Angus.

Many of us have STACKS of minis already. You don't need a 3D printer - use what you've already got. Join OPR Low Tier for one month to get ALL the rules, and have fun with a new system without going broke keeping up with GW. Yeah - you also get free BattleFleet Gothic too. (FTL - Faster Than Light), since GW won't make it anymore.
