Video Content - Jackals vs Aliens

This week we've got a new sponsored GF: Firefight battle report for you, this time featuring 250pts of Jackals vs Aliens! :)

Community Survey - Respond Now!

Every 6 months we run a community survey to get a general feel for what sort of players are currently interested in OPR, and to give everyone an opportunity to send in their feedback/suggestions anonymously.

This is a super quick survey that only takes a few minutes to fill in, and we’ll be keeping it open for a week, with the results being revealed to the public in next week’s post.

AoF: Quest - First Preview

This month we're going to be finally sharing the latest progress we've got for our new game Age of Fantasy: Quest (re-named from Sellswords).

AoF: Quest is a solo/coop skirmish adventure game, where 4 heroes take on hordes of baddies, complete quest, grab loot, level up and go on epic adventures.

Today we're sharing the updated core rules for the game, as well as the hero creation rules, so that you can get familiar with how the game plays.

The plan is that week we'll be releasing the campaign generator, and the week after we'll be releasing the Ratmen compendium entry.

With that, you'll have all the basics that you need to start your first campaigns, and we'll be going through an extensive playtesting phase after to refine the game after.

Grab the early access preview here and build your first heroes!

GF:FTL - Two New Fleets Available

The new GF: FTL beta is currently available on Patreon, and this month the Blessed Sisters and Infected Colonies have joined the battle, bringing us up to a total of 12 out of 16 fleets available to play.

Check them out here and make sure to leave us your feedback!

Mission Packs - New Missions

Here's the 8 missions you're getting this month:

• Grimdark Future – Like Clockwork + High Speed Chase
• GF: Firefight – Decompression + Console Overload
• Age of Fantasy – Blazing City + Hammer & Anvil
• AoF: Skirmish – Vermin Trap + Beast Hunters

Make sure to download the missions before the end of the month, as they aren’t sent out via WGV/DTRPG, and are not stored anywhere for future access.

Only-Games - New Models Available

We've just uploaded the Ratmen, Lust Daemons and Saurian Starhost models from the October release on our Only-Games store, so if you don't have a 3D printer you can get them too. :)

Grab the models here: https://only-games.co/collections/onepagerules

2D Print - New Mummies + Jackals Minis & Terrain

This month we've released some new paper miniature packs for you to enjoy, with the Mummified Undead Set #5 and the Jackals Set #1, as well as the brand new Jackals paper terrain pack.

These sets feature a ton of minis with front and back views in two different color schemes, as well as black & white. They also include black border versions of the minis, plus VTT tokens to play online.

Make sure to download the PSDs before the end of the month, as they aren’t sent out via WGV/DTRPG, and are not stored anywhere for future access.

3D Print - Delay Updates, New Previews, Expanded Release

Unfortunately we're slightly behind with our production for December, so the release of some of this month's models will be delayed, sorry for this. We'll keep you informed via our weekly posts, and will update this post as the models are released. The delayed models are: Starhost Triceratops, Blessed Sisters Warriors, Superior, Fanatics, Flagellants, Fanatic Superior, Bases, Game Aids

At the top of this post you can see previews of some of the models that will be released in January, with the Ratmen Veterans, as well as the Blessed Sisters models that will be released in December, with the Warriors, Superior, Fanatics, and Fanatics Superior. Please remember that these are early WIP shots of the models, and not the final versions of the models.

Now, let's talk about our expanded release.

Currently we are releasing 3 armies per month, which is not normal, and is only because we have a backlog to complete. This is an exception, and December is the last month during which we're releasing 3 armies. Now that the backlog has been completed, we will be going back to releasing only 2 sets per month in January.

To give you a better idea of why we're doing this for those that are new, you need to understand that for the past 2 years we used to release ~8 units per month. During the last 6 months however, we've doubled that number to ~16 units per month, which has been extremely taxing for the team, and we can't keep doing that without completely burning out.

That being said, whilst we are going back down to 2 armies per month starting in January, we're still going to increase our output by 25%, releasing ~10 units per month, which is much more realistic for us to do, and it's still a ton of content for just $10, especially with all the other stuff you get (legendary units, terrain, bases, game aids, welcome packs, loyalty rewards, etc.).

Running a Patreon with monthly release deadlines is not easy, and we don't want to make the mistake of overcommitting to how much stuff we release anymore. So in the future, instead of going crazy trying to deliver 3 armies per month, if we have the capacity to produce more than the 2 monthly armies, we will release them via alternative means such as crowdfunding.

We hope that you enjoyed the 3 armies per month special, and we're happy to keep providing you awesome models at a more reasonable pace in the future. :)
