2 things to point out regarding OnePageRules that weren't mentioned here. 1. They are working on making big steps to expand out including community and lore building. They have released basic lore for all the armies and are working on both setting and faction books. They also did their first convention recently so I wouldn't be surprised if they have a much larger presence by the time 11th edition rolls around 2. They released the ability to create your own balanced armies using their Army Forge Studio. You can give any in game ability to a unit and rename them for flavour and set the stats and it works out and balances the points for you to keep balance. A number of stl creators have partnered up with OPR to make compatible armies with their own rules and I'm sure plenty more will be doing the same. The future for OPR looks very bright

Just getting into wargaming, and people's obsession with lore is so strange to me. Why not just imagine and creat your own stories for your army, especially when putting so much effort to build them? I don't understand why people need someone else to tell them the history and backstory of their toys

I think OPR (GDF) is just more fun, more intuitive and for anyone who hates winning by 'gotcha's', 'Hero-Hammer' and 'net' lists. However it's hard to not miss some of the faction specific rules that give models a bit of flavour. 40k has made improvements, mostly by being more like OPR, but the promise that 10th's 'Index' would bring faction balance seems to have been empty marketing. It's also just a co-incidence that a lot of 'ugly' models seem strong right? GW sticking to their slow codex releases, turn structure and lack of proof reading and play testing has hobbled 10th for me (so far).

@@SimplyWarhammer I thought they would go for alternating activations, or alternating phases when they changed to 8th considering how much of an overhaul that was going to be.

My main gaming group prefers to play OPR, Grimdark Future. It's just a clean and concise system. Games don't take hours to complete. We almost never have rules conflicts. The majority of factions feel balanced and the rules and points are constantly tweaked. Alternating activations keep the pace going and everyone active during the turn. The "you go, I go" system of 40k is just terrible. Most other games that we play, especially skirmish based games are alternating activation and combat just feels more dynamic. If you have the models for it, just try Grimdark Future. The base rules are free and the full rules add a nice layer of complexity without bloat.

@SimplyWarhammer

Жыл бұрын

You have nicely described all the reasons to try grimdark over 40k 😁 I was hoping they'd bring alternating activations into 40k this edition, it's in every other game! The alpha strike really annoys me as a game feature 🙈

Herein lies the core issue of GW: They are a miniatures company that wants you to play a game, but they openly admit their priority is selling models and not the game. This leads to a myriad of problems. 1) Not enough resources allocated to every department. Clearly balance testing was not a thing; anyone who doubts this can look at the graph presented here. Technical know-how wasn't a thing either as is clearly shown by their repeated failures with the app. Marketing, normally a strength, has even started to fail with the blatantly obvious fudging of the "Battle for Whateverthehellitscalled planet" event results, leading to what will in all likelyhood be a "draw" and they will end up showing off both factions. When you have this right on the heels of the LoV disaster, it doesn't instill confidence in your company. 2) Intentionally buffing units in order to hit sales goals then nerfing the piss out of them in order to force players to buy the new, overpowered hotness. There are many examples, but rather than force people to read all of them, I'll simply say "Aggressors" and "Outriders" and leave it at that. 3) Selling you expensive models that allow for 'x' and 'y' customizations then suddenly making said customizations game-illegal. Nothing says "fun and enjoyable" like having your purchased, cleaned, assembled, painted and played with models suddenly be useless. All so you can rebuy them to assemble "legal" ones. Chaos lightning claw and/or combi-weapon terminators, we feel your pain. 4) Terrible army design. Gone are the days when 1 or 2 people (Andy Chambers, Jervis Johnson) wrote effectively every codex. Now you have several authors, each of whom seem to have zero communication with the others. This leads to situations where we have Eldar, an army that has never not been broken on release (forgive the double negative) and Death Guard at opposite spectrums. One army forces you to try hard to lose and the other dares you to try and win. The top 5-6 armies are roughly 20% (in wins) above the bottom 5-6. Even SM, the army that the perpetually offended criers on the internet said would be "beyond broken" because of OoM aren't winning 1/2 their games. It's time for GW to admit that while they have the best miniatures anywhere, they can't write rules to save their lives and either a) dip into those £500m quarterly profits and hire people for full time balance or b) admit they don't know how to do it and subcontract the rules.

For me I MUCH prefer the alternating turns of OPR, but like others have stated I really miss my characters being unique and have fun abilities.

I'll also say that I really think the most fun part of the hobby will also be painting the models. Just 2 cents from someone who really likes Warhammer, but can't justify the high cost of entry...

If this is what you value, OPR may not have much to offer you. On the other hand I don't know a lot of people who say they want to play 40k because they really like the rules, feel that GW does a good job with balance, avoiding power creep/bloat, /balance, or values play testing over "churn it out, sell it and maybe fix later". Furthermore not a lot of 40k players will say GW makes all units/factions relevant, or that the game is designed in a way to make it easy to get to the table a play a whole battle that does not 4+ hours. There are also not many people who chose 40K because they think GW is consumer friendly. OPR rules are not written wholly are mostly in service of selling miniatures, and GW rules are. If rules, balance, ease of play, factions getting mostly equal attention, and consumer friendly practices are your primary concern, then OPR has much more to offer to you then GW.

I think what some of this boils down to is that 40k players are 'locked' into the game system by being so invested with their model collection and money / time spent so far. That will always be a blocker to switching, the biggest blocker to running multiple systems is time. I like playing Horus Heresy and Star Wars Legion but both suffer from time as most my time goes into 40k! Thanks for the comment though, cheers

@@SimplyWarhammer Yes I agree, almost everyone wishes that we had more time and resources to devote to the hobby. Some gamers are very hard up on one or both. The games we choose to play are a combination of preferences and circumstances. Some people who play 40k/AOS actually like and choose those systems, but it does not seem to be a majority. This is hardly scientific, but a few months ago I went looking for KZread videos of 40k/AOS content creators, where they expressed very positive opinion of rules, mechanics and game play experience (especially in comparison to other similar games). I believe I only found one video like this. This creator is active in tournament/competitive AOS and spoke about really enjoying the complexities of list building, sub-faction choices, and hero/command options that AOS provides that other more streamlined games do not. So after an hour or two of searching I found one person who enthusiastically choose the game based on rules/mechanics/gameplay, and this was for a very specific aspect of the game that only a tiny fraction of players participate in (high level completive). By comparison you can easily find multiple videos of creators expressing preference for One Page Rules specifically for rules/mechanics/gameplay often going into detail of the ways they find it better than 40k/AOS. It just seems like 40k in particular is widely popular (in terms of people choosing to play it) and yet many of these players feel very lukewarm about the game system itself. Of the people who don't have issues with the game system, I wonder how many have never player anything else and therefore have nothing to compare it against.

I would say the 40k youtube community largely responds more to negative, controversial or in some way sensational video making so something saying positive things about the game won't get anywhere 🙈 lol I wonder whether the majority of 40k hobbyists are actually collectors first that try and get a few games in second, the competitive scene is a smaller subset but one that seems to be noisiest in social media and one that GW focuses more effort on!

I would add that I agree with not wanting to learn a "new" rule system is a deterrent. (true for me for sure) but what I found was that One Page Rules is the same d6 system so familiar to players of 40K. the units and rules are similar enough to reduce the learning curve, just leaving out some of the parts that take up extra time. I would encourage the reluctant player not wanting to "learn new rules" to review Grimdark Future rules during their opponents turn in their next game of 40K. They may be surprised to discover how easy it is to parse. By the end of that game of 40k they will likely have had time to learn the "new" system and build an army in the free app that matches the force they have on the table. Next game could be three games played with the same army in the same amount of time.

Nope. GW just can't stop being GW. After an initial tokens of good will they went back to their usual ways. 40k will (apparently) always be less agile than OPR. And the 10th is still not simple enough to ease the introduction for new players.

We are definitely playing Warhammer 40k, but with OPR ruleset. Trying to shoehorn in all strange factions like admech, necrons, sisters, knights etc into a completely new universe feels very artificial. Free rules are nice but our main reason for playing OPR is it doesn't take all day. We can play a 6-man free-for-all 1500p (each) in 3 hours. Playing that in 40k would take all day.

Well...inhale deep breath. Here we go OPR will one day rival GW in fan base OPR is still growing and is expanding the lore. GW has always suffered from power creep and always will. Why GW puts out rules is beyond me. They will just turn around and put out an army that breaks the rules completely and wonder why their shit is broken. They don't care about balance, just buy our crap so we can make the next better so you can buy our crap again. OH you like that faction well we don't so we will half ass it and ignore it for years. Same ol crap from GW. GW doesn't care about its community just its IP and money, money, money. So please quit pissing your money away on GW. OPR is, and always will be a superior option to GW. I switched I few years back. Got a resin and fdm printer for less then the cost of 1 GW army...don't get me started on the cost of GW. Found a new hobby in 3d printing and saved so much, that I got more armies and terrain then I can keep up with. Please save yourself and switch over to OPR. It's OK you can bring your non printed GW models with you we don't mind, even the ones GW left behind.

Thanks for this. It is strange as GW say they are a miniature company and we always see practices relating to sales of new stuff, as you say they get the best rules. And yet they do write rules and make a big thing of metawatch and balance. They update rules and points to try and keep things level. It's like 2 parts of the same company tugging at different ends of the same rope 😆 I don't think 3d printing is exclusive to none gw games though. Its so common now that people print replicas or even just cool proxies. The tournament I went to this weekend the winning Tyranids army was a 3D print Iron Hive army from Makers Cult and looked fantastic. I think it'll be good for everyone in OPR genuinely grows to compete with 40k, but it is the chicken and the egg scenario as people won't jump until its more popular 🙈 Thanks for watching 👍

By the end of 9th my group was bouncing between 3rd Edition 40k and OPR. When 10th came out one of the lads and I gave it a go and it was ok. But as OPR brings a bit more details on it's lore and how it diverges from it's predecessor the group is getting more excited. One of the gents has a craftworld eldar army but after looking at the background he thinks the Dark Elf Pirates are more interesting than the High Elf Fleets and while they are evil it's less gratuitous... so strong chance I'll be helping him print more minis for that army.

Imo 10th edition oversimplified too many of the wrong things and heavily limits customization. Most of the rules I've seen people praise are features flat out copied from OPR. Like fluid army building and universal special rules. Getting rid of those phase specific rules that varied by army and the 500 stratagems was a good idea. Calling every single weapon in the Vanguard veterans box an "heirloom weapon" so there's no functional difference between a chainsword and a thunder hammer was a bad idea. I liked chapter and successor rules, I don't like being forced to use power level under a different name. I'm actually more than a little insulted by that. Did they think the problems power level had would go away by calling it points? Did they think I wouldn't notice that it's an identical system with larger numbers? Did they think I just didn't give power level a chance and FORCING me to use it was the solution? No. No I'll have none of that, and I'll have none of their $50 hardcover codices that'll be OP for a week before the errata comes down, only to be replaced by the next.

I also like faction flavour and don't like power level, its too simple and we've lost interesting customisation. In particularly you can't take a vanilla squad to save money, you always have to take the best bit of you are wasting points. I think they went the power level way to keep it easy and simple for the start of the edition. Its also lots of effort to figure out wargear prices and I bet they didn't want it.

On the other hand, if you are aiming at a 2k points game in preparation for a tournament or a multi game/week campaign, well OPR is too simplistic. Too narow minded, not tactical/strategic enough. OPR leaves too many blind spots and to erata that, well, it will be many pages after that. And after 10 games, haven't you played all the games that system has to offer? Just by moving 3D terain pieces and adding a new bunker instead of a hill, you completely changed the game.
