I came across One Page Rules many months ago. Never tried any of their rules out...until now! In my hunt for a simplified version of Infinity I tried a playtest copy of One Page Rules' Double Tap (https://onepagerules.wordpress.com/misc/). Its free, so I grabbed a copy and dived right in.
|
Gotta love rules that fit on one page. |
|
Here is the 'battlefield'. I like how quick and easy it is to set up and break down later. |
|
Here are the Infinity Haqqislam minis. They are in a state of undress, more painting still needed. But I have a Hero (Knife/SMG), Sniper, 3 Rifle troops, and a Shotgun troop (its a flamethrower but option not available currently). |
|
Here are the Sedition Wars troops. There is a Hero (pistol/knife), HMG troop, Sniper, and 3 Rifle troops. |
|
Sedition Wars set-up. Sniper in a key location, with HMG troop about to fill the alleyway. |
|
Haqqislam's Sniper is ready on the rooftop as the Hero and Shotgun (flamethrower) prepare a sprint to the enemy's side of the battlefield. |
|
Haqqislam advance! |
|
HMG wipes out the Sniper. |
|
Near the end, a lone Sedition trooper takes on the Haqqislam Hero and Shotgun troop. Lucky rolls and the Sedition troop is the clear victor. |
|
The Sedition Sniper got two confirmed kills this match. |
|
These two gunners traded bullets throughout the game. Eventually the Sedition trooper prevailed. |
Double Tap has some potential. I have some questions I'll be posting up on the One Page Rules forum (http://onepagerules.proboards.com/). I'm hoping they'll flesh this ruleset out some more; special rules, upgrades, weapons, etc. All in all I like what they have done with Double Tap.
Some at my local club have been playing Infinity recently, so I've forwarded this blog post. Thanks Jeff.
