    I’m proudly stuck in WH 3rd edition for model buying/painting reasons and so I don’t have to keep earning scholerly degrees to learn new rule sets.

    Also one page rules really revives your unsupported models.

        @RudeOnTuesdays @Marduk73
        I have played OPR before, but only the 40k variant and not the Killteam variant.

        There are some things I love about it, but some other things that I found a bit too simplified and hurting immersion, e.g. WS and BS being the same on all units…
        IIRC there is no shooting and melee-ing in the same activation, which makes the default Chaos 40k gear choices quite bad in OPR.

        AND armies tend to be a lot smaller (which can also be good, I guess).

          Yeah, they even ‘cheated’ WS and BS in certain armies with special rules for a unit shooting at a higher or lower quality than normal (e.g. Ork Boyz have quality 4+ but when shooting they have 5+).

          With workarounds like that they should probably just differentiate the two.
