OnePageRules Battleplans

Inspired by ULC Battle Reports this is how we currently play OnePageRules skirmish games using WarCry battleplan cards.

• fast setup as there are fewer decisions
• games feel unique
• encourages storytelling and a cinematic feel

Process

1. Roll-off, winner decides if they want to be Attacker or Defender
2. Starting with the Defender take turns naming units as Sword, Hammer or Shield
   You must balance your models/toughness points as evenly as possible.
   We place our minis on this A4 tableu.
   This is also a great moment to explain your units stats and rules to the other player.
3. Reveal the Terrain
   Shuffle until you have one that works for the terrain you've got.
4. Reveal the Deployment card
   Defender picks if they want to be blue or red.
5. Reveal the Victory card
6. Start playing, Attacker has initiative

Rules

Standard OnePageRules skirmish rules but:

• deployment and victory conditions are determined using Warcry Cards
• Scout allows the unit to take a Move action at the beginning of the round they are deployed in
• Ambush units cannot deploy before round 2 or the round in which the card tells them to deploy. They may ignore the deployment position of the card and follow Ambush deployment rules instead.

Recommendations:

• use Kitchen Table distances and board size i.e. 2'x2' or 22"x30" board and halve all distances in the rules.
• follow competitive validation/Force Org. rules and play with 200pt armies

Ideas for further constraints:

• limit armies to one non-hero Tough unit
• limit armies to 10/12 Tough points/model counts
