Grimdark Future World Book Launch & 10th Anniversary Sale

For ten years, the universe of Grimdark Future has only been glimpsed through a couple of narrative campaigns, short army book introductions, illustrations and design cues on models. Things have already begun to change this year, however, with the rolling out of the new Secrets of Tixal narrative campaign and short stories. 

The Grimdark Future World Book is the next big step in unveiling the lore for our game!

So what is the Grimdark Future World Book?

This 64-page book has been a long time project which has grown and developed alongside the setting and its lore. A primer on the wider Grimdark Future setting, it will connect the lore shown so far through narrative campaigns, short stories and army book intros and build a foundation for future stories and campaigns. 

Featuring:

  • Humanity’s origins and history in the Grimdark Future

  • The history, ongoing conflicts, key locations and factions of the Sirius Sector

  • Information on societies in the setting, touching on everything from space travel to policing.

  • Galactic geography, introducing the wider galaxy and the planets contained within.

  • Beautiful artwork on almost every page, including some factions never before depicted by OPR

  • New short stories and flash fiction throughout the book, depicting life on and off the battlefield in Sirius.

Free Preview of the Grimdark Future World Book

We've made the first section of the Grimdark Future World Book, the first 13 pages, completely free! Learn about the history of the Grimdark Future universe, from the Human Civil War to their arrival in the Sirius Sector, and more!

It is no coincidence that we're launching the Grimdark Future World Book the same month as OPR's 10th Anniversary. This book is the culmination of years of work and the growth of our worlds. To celebrate, we're having a huge sale on models on MyMiniFactory! This sale will only last until April 15th, so take advantage of it while you can!

Note: Sale excludes books, PDFs, and digital models exclusive to recent crowdfunding campaigns, such as Secrets of Tixal.

With 64 full-color pages filled with wonderful artwork, we're sure many of you would love to have a physical version of this book. In the near future we hope to be able to provide a print-on-demand version of the Grimdark Future World Book! When we do, we will provide a discount code to everyone who purchases the PDF before the launch of the physical version.

Happy Wargaming!

I'm only seeing the 50% off code. Is the 70% for tier 2 patrons somewhere else?

Oooh.. so glad this discount came round on a month where I have some spare money! Time for a new army or two... and a book! :D

It's a beautiful piece of work. Even for those of us still thinking in terms of other IPs as backgrounds for our games. What you've built manages to combine original ideas with our preconceptions from another game in a way that I think gives a more interesting setting with more possibilities. I'd really love to hear an audiobook version of this. My pathway into the setting of he other game was through listening to Loretubers like Oculus Imperia and Baldemort. It's great to see OPR starting to get the same treatment.

Is it possible to read it on Kindle?

One Page Rules · April 10, 2024

It is a PDF file, which should work on Kindles.

Yes, maybe this is being greedy, but when can we expect a similar book for Age of Fantasy? 🤔😇🙂🥰🔥

Will we see models for some of the artwork included. Really loved the look of the Battle Brothers. And ALL the spaceships are fire pure fire.

One Page Rules · April 12, 2024

When we eventually do models for some of the factions pictured in the book, they may differ from the artwork.

Please be more direct in stating if patrons would need to buy the world book to get it, or if it will be provided to patrons some point down the line. If it isn't a patron reward why not run a frontier or Kickstarter with a few extra models thrown in?

O
One Page Rules · April 9, 2024

The first 13 pages are available for free. The rest of the book is a purchased product.

Perfect! This is Amazing and I'm going to start in this Lore adventure now!

As someone who prefers physical copies to PDFs, does it make sense hold out until the physical copies become available or is the point of the discount to recoup the PDF cost when purchasing the physical?

O
One Page Rules · April 9, 2024

Details are still up in the air on the exact discount for the physical version, but we want to do what we can for early adopters.

I’m more than happy to pay $15 for the World Book, but just wondering before I do. Is there a patron discount or anything I should be aware of?

O
One Page Rules · April 9, 2024

There is no Patron discount on our books, no.
