I have seen that there are an epic version for Grimdark future, called "One Page Micro Sci Fi", and I would like to know if there are something similiar for the Fantasy version, in a NON-Warmaster style.
Is somebody working on it?
Thanks,
Slorm

I actually had some prototypes for a 15mm version of AoF, maybe I could add it to the Sneak Peek folder...

Seems good. I support a 6mm version however, as It Will really feel Like a Mass Battle. (Alike to the 6mm sci-fi)

Hi - couldn't help but add my tuppenceworth to this conversation.
I've had a play with 6mm fantasy regiments, which will be my next project after micro sci-fi - maybe in 2027, the way my painting is going.... But I'm a sucker for beautiful 6mm and Microworld do some fantastic and affordable ranges.
The scale is 1:4 so each inch in the rules is 1/4" - I just swapped cm for inches (roughly 1:2.5) for movement and shooting. Mount each regiment on a single base - use the 1:4 scale for this. A typical infantry regiment with 10 figures in two ranks is mounted on a base 1.25" wide by 1/2" deep. Yes, this is small, and it is probably best to simply double the size of regiments. I haven't made up any units yet, so space on the base may be an issue - perhaps a 1:3 scale, which will allow some diorama-building on each base.
Mark casualties either on the rear of the base or using markers. Typically, specialist figures in each regiment die last. Multiple special figures in a regiment (e.g. sergeant and banner bearer) die in a predetermined order, although if you're down to that many figures, the regiment is screwed!
The game rips along with the minimum of fuss and NO RULES CHANGES. There may need to be a single page covering some adaptations, but that would be all that is needed.
As I said, I haven't made up any units and playtesting was done using card regiments on paper terrain but it was fun and worth the effort. Roll on 2027...

I know this thread is a bit old, but has anything been done on the 6mm fantasy regiments? It would be awesome to see a massive battle like that taking place!

obviouslyderek: What would be the challenges of running AoFR with 6mm models mounted several to the base, treating each base as a model, rules-wise?

Hi people, I'm reviving this dead thread so I don't have to create a new one  I am currently planning to implement an OPR variant of Warmaster (and similar systems). Have any of you tried this before and can give me tips or provide your rules? Of course I will share my results with you as soon as they are ready to play  |

Of course I will share my results with you as soon as they are ready to play Hey you might want to wait just a little while because apparently sometime this year the guy who owns OPR plans to release a "Not Epic" for sci fi and a "Not Warmaster" for Fantasy. I'm eagerly awaiting it because I think these will become my go to games as I'm fed up of any thing larger than 15mm these days. I've tried to make my own rules but I just don't have the expertise. One game you might find can translate to a simple large scale 6mm game (at least visually) is 'One Hour Wargames' By Neil Thomas. |
