Tried Osprey's Black Ops Rules??

by Seal » January 13th, 2016, 9:30 pm

Hey,

I am curious if anyone here has used the Osprey Publishing Black Ops rules. I recently read about them, and I feel that they could be used in connection to the Infinity universe to create some different types of game scenarios.

If you have used the Black Ops rules, would you mind posting your thoughts about them?

Take care and thanks!

Never played them, but I'm interested, too.

They look promising, the only thing that I don't like is that they use six sided dice. I think that the future of serious wargaming and RPG is diceless (cards/resources, instead).

I'm going to try to get the rule book this weekend. If we get a game in soon, I'll post a review/report here.

I have only just begun to use cards with some of our games, but from what I've seen they work well.

Take care ;)

Hopefully the rules have some good scenarios, so even if the rules are meh, we can still have some new scenarios to play.

I'm trying to convert the scenarios from Ghosts of Hefei, which is a gang-warfare game.

So, no pathfinder for this mysterious rule system?
