GF Video Batrep - 3000pts High Elf Fleets vs Robot Legions
Hi there,
I'm making this update for those of you that haven't been very active on the forums so that you know what's coming up with the release of the 3rd wave armies.
This release is going to be much bigger than expected because of some changes that are coming to the core rules and point costs, which means I will have to re-work a couple of units from every single army.
What are these changes you ask? Well...
- Units may only fight in melee once per round (may choose...

Just a quick update, all of the AoF Skirmish 2nd wave armies are fully done and available in the secret folder, so go ahead and enjoy them.
I'm trying really hard to get everything done so that we can release all 2nd wave armies before Christmas but things have been extremely busy, so let's hope for the best!
Cheers,

2018-12-16 15:41:32 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone,
I've just updated the folder with the 2nd wave armies for Grimdark Future, point costs and all. Now you can go out and actually playtest them if you want. :)
Next steps are: creating skirmish versions of all the armies and then updating all games with the feedback provided by the community.
Hopefully it's all done before christmas!
Cheers,
Gaetano
2018-12-07 10:18:48 +0000 UTC View PostHi guys,
I just finished the 2nd wave of AoF armies and they are all available in the shared drive, including the updated point calculation system.
Next up I'll be working on the GF armies and hopefully it should all be done by end of November / early December.
Cheers,
Gaetano
2018-11-19 10:10:14 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone,
I just uploaded all of the 2nd wave armies on the shared folder for you to check out. This is an early build without point costs and other things that still need to be fixed, but it should give you a good idea of what the final armies are going to look like.
Enjoy! :)
Hi people,
I know I've said that we are almost there many times, but this time... this time it's realer than ever. If you check that secret folder you will find that we've update all of the army files, that all of the games are available, that all point cost systems are up to date... yeah it's real.
What does this mean now?
I'm still trying to see if I can polish up the rulebook a bit, trying to see if I can add some extra images and texture to it to make it prettier, but I'm not s...
2018-10-10 11:29:38 +0000 UTC View PostHey there,
Quick update, just added all of the AoF:Skirmish armies to the secret folder so that you can already start to get your warbands going!
Soon I'll be working on the GF:Firefight armies and then that should mark our final milestone before releasing 2nd edition.
Cheerse,
Gaetano
2018-10-03 12:47:06 +0000 UTC View PostDear Patrons,
I'm very happy to announce that today the full rulebooks have finally been completed and you can check them out in the secret folder!
The last thing that we needed to add were our own set of diagrams to explain the rules, and with the help of the great Dave Needham we were able to produce those.
If you have any graphic design needs don't hesitate to contact me so that I can connect you with him. :)
At this point the next step is for me to complete the Firefight/...
2018-09-28 11:01:23 +0000 UTC View PostHello peeps,
I've just added the first draft of the firefight rules to the secret folder, go ahead and check them out. :)
The rules are mostly unchanged from the previous edition, with the biggest change being that now there will be no groups of models anymore, but it will always be individuals.
I'm thinking of giving heroes the ability to activate multiple models at once, however that needs to be playtested before I implement it.
Cheers,
Gaetano
P.S.: For those t...
2018-09-13 09:55:54 +0000 UTC View PostHello,
Today we are releasing 6 more armies (technically more) for Age of Fantasy so that you can dip your toes in the new edition.
None of the armies have any point costs calculated yet, and in order to try and speed up the overall release of the game some members of the community have said they would help by crowd sourcing the point calculation.
If you would like to contribute you can find the thread here: 2018-09-06 11:23:50 +0000 UTC View Post
Hello,
I just added the Age of Fantasy core rules to the secret folder so if you like fantasy please check them out and give me your feedback. Everything that has changed is marked in yellow, however if you already had a look at the new Grimdark Future you will notice a lot of similarities.
The next step will be to create a Full Rulebook and Point Calculation System for it, and then start working on the starter armies so that you can give it a go.
Cheers,
Gaetano
2018-08-14 08:59:49 +0000 UTC View PostHello Everyone,
I am excited to say that the first 6 armies that are going to come with 2nd edition have been created and you can find them in the secret folder. This should give a lot of you the rules you need to play 2nd edition already, and I hope that you enjoy what you see.

2018-08-03 09:50:15 +0000 UTC View PostHello people,
I'm going to try and keep this brief, so here's a rundown of what's new in the latest beta release:
- Poison was re-named to Corrosive to make it more generic
- Psychic spells are now cast with D6+X instead of 2D6+X
- Fear was modified again, hopefully it should be pretty clear now
- A new special rule was added called Mend
That's it for the core rule changes. What's more important however is that I have finally converted the first army into the new ...
2018-06-25 15:13:21 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone,
After the massive post that I made last time I am coming back at you with something much shorter, but no less important.
Beta 6
This latest release brings some good news and some bad news.
The good news is that I have modified the following rules:
- Fear: the new version is cleaner and more intuitive, affecting the chance that units have to win in melee
- Immobile: added this new rule to allow for units that can't move in the futur...
2018-05-24 15:57:42 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone,
Let's be honest, things have been moving pretty slowly for OPR or at least it might seem so when you aren't me. This update is going to be a bit longer than usual, and I will use it to fill you in on everything that has been happening with OPR and where we are going next.
Beta 5
If you check the secret folder you are going to find a new version of the core rules for Grimdark Future with Beta 5.
The first thing you will notice is that the divis...
2018-05-16 13:04:01 +0000 UTC View PostHey there,
Just a quick update: as requested by someone on the forum some new Machine Cult units have been released, so I've made up some rules for them. You can find them in the secret folder as always, and they will be available to the public soon.
I've also seen that there is a new army coming out for Age of Fantasy and it looks really interesting, so I'm looking forward to making rules for them.
Finally I wanted to thank everyone for contributing in the 2nd edition discussions ...
2018-04-23 13:18:05 +0000 UTC View PostHey,
I've just added a new Beta 4 version of all available files to the secret folder, which changes the balancing of the AP and Deadly rules a little. What is currently available is pretty much the vision that I have for 2nd edition, so the next thing I will be working on is the format.
What I would like to do is to have a "rulebook" file, which contains a thorough explanation of everything (expect it to be 10 pages or so), and then the regular 1-page reference sheet. This way both newc...
2018-04-02 14:35:27 +0000 UTC View PostHey there,
I've just updated the secret folder with a new version of the Battle Brother Detachments which contain new units fro the Prime Brothers, as well as an update to the already existing units giving them more weapon options.
This week I'm going to try to get a game in with them and then probably they'll be out for the general public next weekend. Enjoy your exclusive preview! :)

2018-03-18 20:30:53 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone,
Today I'm releasing a new Beta 3 version of all the available files, bringing things closer to my final vision of the game. There is still a lot of testing that needs to be done on my side, but I'm liking the direction in which the game is headed. Here the changes:
- Deadly always deals 3x wounds
- Added 4 standard Hero special rules
- Fear is now Fear(X) to give more flexibility
- Re-introduced the Furious special rule
- Modified the point calcula...
2018-03-14 23:04:55 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys,
Over the past couple of days I've been working more on the point calculation system, as this is one of the main reason people have been backing the Patreon. Here is what you will find in beta 2:
- Point values modified to simplify calculations
- Added point values for unit special rules
- Added point values for weapon special rules
- Added unit creation guidelines
The unit creation guidelines are probably the most important new addition as they give you ...
