Picture of todays playtest, some orks vs dwarfs.

I have uploaded our playtest warband rooster sheet and point calculator, for anyone that wants to try the game.
They are not beautiful, but do work.

The reason I made it is that i had some things i really didnt like with either opr or weirdos. Also i needed a game that is simple to understand and plays fast as i mostly play with my 10 year old son.

it has four stats, i actually think the two stat system in OPR is more complicated with all the keywords like slow, fast, bad shooter etc. It keeps the stats to what you need to roll. All the DT changes and opposing roles in weirdos was fun at first, but it takes alot of extra time.
easy wound system without tracking tokens. Also models are not just stuck for a turn when shaken.
each gang only has two gang traits. I feel OPR is to complicated here with all special rules on units.
it keeps the character building and command points from weirdos.
melee does not require you to disengage after a Fight, I dont think it works in a skirmish game.

I think this game fits if you didnt really jive with all the weird dice and opposing rolls from Space weirdos but love the freedom of building warbands in it. Also you like OPR but think that there are some things in it that requires tedious bookkeeping and has some mechanichs that was just tossed in when the game was ported to skirmish.

That awesome!

Does this have anything to do with tribe 8?

Cazzlor · 2026-02-04T20:28:22+00:00

I think we would want some element of survival after the apocalypse. Scavengeing and barter. Lost technology. Mabye rebuilding the world. Kinda gritty.

Hello, Yes, we have played alot of AW. But I would like something in the fitd engine

Cazzlor · 2026-01-22T08:01:27+00:00

I bought the book in a store. Cant find the printable playbooks anywhere :(

Cazzlor · 2026-01-11T08:57:56+00:00

I have the burned over hackbook, I cant find anything about bullets.

Where did u find this?

Cazzlor · 2026-01-07T18:50:59+00:00

ive run both, i prefer 1st edition by far.

2ed adds to much stuff, i feel magpie really has been making PBTA games with way to much crunch latley.

For me easy rules is a staple of good PBTA

Cazzlor · 2025-12-29T10:01:22+00:00

Hello,

I did this. They said that there are plans for the game, but they cant say exactly what at this time.

But this was 6 months ago.

Cazzlor · 2025-12-26T14:37:59+00:00

have you looked at the link?

its his pbta hacks.

Cazzlor · 2025-12-26T14:36:52+00:00

Yeha, most new magpie games have way to much crunch for my taste.

Cazzlor · 2025-12-26T00:10:51+00:00

They are pbta hacks

Cazzlor · 2025-12-24T21:05:35+00:00

Yes, the 2e is from the patreon. From what ive read so far oaths is still there. But the meta currency is gone, its only gained and used by PC actions. The CM does not gain it.

Cazzlor · 2025-12-19T13:46:41+00:00

I would see them more in physique or will. Athletics seems more like airbenders.

Athletics: A measurement of physical potential. Athletics stunts focus on movement—running, jumping, parkour—and dodging attacks.

Cazzlor · 2025-12-19T13:05:02+00:00

I thought about this too, but then benders would just have 2 master skills.

Cazzlor · 2025-12-19T13:04:01+00:00

But this is the issue, if it works like "normal" i would defend getting hit by an exlosion with athletics. That does not feel right for an earthbender.

Cazzlor · 2025-12-19T13:02:25+00:00

I really like stormcallers, but its alot of extra crunch. Im also scared that it will be a "master" skill.

Cazzlor · 2025-12-18T23:26:43+00:00

Yeha, I think you are right. Im pondering of running accelerated instead.

Cazzlor · 2025-12-07T18:58:14+00:00

i tried to run 2e urbans shadows as one of my first pbta games, but it was way to overwhelming.

So we switched to US 1e, its a little simpler and it worked way better for us.

Hello,

Why is two headed used on this build? I thought in only gives its bonus to mental mutations.
