    Hello! I've been slowly discovering One Page Rules and thought maybe some of you guys would want to talk about it! I'm mostly interested in the Fantasy Skirmish but feel free to talk about all the other types.
    I would like to ask any OPR veterans if you have any tips for someone wanting to table Vampiric Undead? My reflex would be to mimic Mordheim and invest heavily into a killing-machine vampire hero, some quick units to pick off smaller targets and of course some fodder to hold objectives. Any comments on that?

    I love OPR. The models are great and I think most (if not all) of the rule sets are fantastic! They are not the most in-depth, and there are going to be balance issues - but who doesn't have balance issues?! But for a set of rules that are simple to explain to friends who have never played a tabletop game they really shine.

    I've been eyeing their Saurian models for both fantasy but haven't pulled the trigger yet. I don't really have anyone in my local scene who plays anything outside of 40K but I'm trying to work down some of my friends.

      The models themselves are a mixed bag for me, but i love the Jackals! I found that if you want to get people to play new games with you- you will have to provide two armies in the beginning ;D...

      I found that if you want to get people to play new games with you- you will have to provide two armies in the beginning ;D Entice them to play with you with little time involvement and wait for them to take the bait....

        I have the Grimdark Future Firefight starter kit printed out which has Alien Hives and Blessed Sisters but after finally trapping someone I realised the set's out of date and the bugs list was totally outclassed. He seemed keen for a rematch another time though!

    I've been meaning to OPR for ages now; especially the Grindark Future while I was pretty damned unhappy with where 40k was with 9th. Much as I wanted to though, my friend was on an AoS kick, Ari we ended up playing a lot of that and when I wasn't, I had tons of other games I wanted to try out so never really got around to it.

    It's very up my alley though; I really enjoy uncomplicated rules that just get out of the way and let you play the game, so at some point I'll probably end up giving something from them a go.
