Mission Packs - New Missions Released

This month we're releasing our very first mission pack, with 4 different missions, one for each game. The missions are designed to give you fun new ways to play the game, and whilst they are intended for each respective system, you can totally play any of the missions with any of the systems (maybe with small adjustments).

Give them a shot and download the mission pack here.

Sellswords - Core Rules Update

As many of you have already lamented (and with good reason), the development of Sellswords has been excruciatingly slow. Whilst this is partly due to a lot of unexpected issues I've been having to deal with, it's also partly because I think the game is not that fun.

After some more thought, I went ahead and created a new v0.6 version of the core rules, and will be giving this a try to see if it feels better.

The most important changes are here in summary:

• System switched to D6 so it's more intuitive
• Table size changed to 2'x2' again so it's more accessible
• Hero and enemy activations are now alternating so it's more dynamic
• Enemies activate in random order so they're not as predictable
• Removed stick together rule as it discouraged small parties

Right now only the core rules are available, which you can download here.

I'm hoping to get more time on my hands so that I can play the system more, and I will be heavily editing a lot of the current systems to further streamline the game and bring it to a point where I actually have fun with it, so that then scenario creation will be a breeze. :)

Etsy - New Models Uploaded

We've just uploaded the Duchies of Vinci and Alien Hives models from the April release on our Etsy store, so if you don't have a 3D printer you can buy them too. :)

Grab the models here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/onepagerules

2D Print - Bodyguards Gang

This week we've released a new set of gang minis, which you can download here.

3D Print - June Previews, Loyalty Reward Updates

At the top of this post you can see the first previews of our June release, with the Alchemist, Captain on Automa Horse and the Psycho-Rex.

Over the past week we've also been re-thinking the way that our loyalty rewards work.

Due to the timing of it, we think that it's a bit confusing that the currently displayed loyalty rewards are only available to those that have joined in April or earlier, so we're going to be extending their release until we have the new models ready.

We're also realizing that the production of these big models is taking longer than predicted, so we might only be able to release new loyalty rewards every ~4 months instead of every ~3 months, and so we've changed the current description to reflect that

We hope that this new setup will be clearer for everyone, and if anything changes, we'll make sure to keep you updated. :)

That's it for this week, happy wargaming!
