Hey guys
A friend and I who played 8th for years have been working on a small rules set to play a version of crusade adapted from the 40K rules. The aim was to enable a level of army growth and to make games at a smaller level for fun, and more meaningful. We’ve had a great time of it so far, growing armies of High Elves, Dwarfs, Lizardmen and Empire. We started at 1000 points and used an RP system like the 40K one. You could spend the RP on many things like reinforcements, magic items (you start with 0 points worth of magic items), wizard levels (all wizards start at level 1) etc. Just like in 40K you can’t change a unit without spending RP, which is a nice way of a unit being ‘fixed’ and having its own story. Units earn experience for playing a game, extra for surviving it and for getting 3 unit kills. We’ve got a simple system of upgrades you can earn as the units ‘level up’.
If there is interest we can post it all up here? It’s been fantastic fun and hopefully is a nice way to get others into the 8th Ed hobby.
Thanks
Jamie
