Sellswords - Small Update

Despite a long hiatus, and with a thousand other things going on, we're getting back into Sellswords, so that we can finally complete this game for good!

After running a bunch of playtests with v0.21, we've come to the conclusion that whilst on the surface the game is fine, it's far too complex and too finnicky to provide the type of fast paced and fun experience we're looking to create.

With that in mind, we've been working on a new version of the rules, which you can see a tiny snippet of already today, with the main rules page.

Here's the core changes:

• Simplified activations, and made them more similar to AoFS
• Heroes can now take two actions per turn
• Simplified the acrobatics rules and brought them back into core
• Made shooting/melee more similar to AoFS
• No more being locked in melee, minimum ranges or pushing
• Added a new stagger special action
• Made difficult terrain more similar to AoFS
• Tweaked enemy stats a little
• Simplified enemy group behaviour, and clarified wound assignment

The idea with this version is to bring it closer to AoFS again, to keep it in familiar territory, as well as significantly speed up the gameplay, increasing the time you actually get to play with your heroes whilst lowering the time you have to activate enemies.

This change is going to require some playtesting, as well as re-adjusting all of the other systems in the game, but we're hopeful that it will finally hit the right spot for us. :)
