Well, you reap what you sow.

The complaints about AoS were that it was TOO free and TOO loose, that there was no structure.

Congrats. You got structure and points. Enjoy it.

You're right, people who like the new structure WILL enjoy it. People who don't will probably use one of the two other ways to play that's covered in the book. Seriously dude your posts on this topic are getting almost comical!

Fortunately, we all have the freedom to try different play styles and do what we want. Lucky us

Out of interest is anyone actually looking forward to "open" play? I guess if there are Triumph and Treachery style game modes it could be fun, but it seems everyone is looking forward to Narrative and Matched play the most.

Well I'm looking forward to finding out what it is!

The open play to my understanding was what we already have. I'm looking forward to the campaign stuff.

I've played the four player scenario that came with Web Store orders and it was really fun. It also worked well without points (as long as someone doesn't have enough to take on all 3 opponents at once) as the strongest guy gets ganged up on.

I used to play Triumph and Treachery in 8th edition a lot too which was fun.

I am hoping for some fun scenarios like a "Royal Rumble" winner stays on, or pit-fighting for heroes and monsters.

We use T&T in our campaign now. The cards were adapted over to AOS rules.

I'm only interested in campaigns, so open play will likely never be something that I use.

My community is largely competitive so points are all that will happen, and those are integrated into the campaign.

Depending on what "narrative format" is... it will likely be integrated with points.

You could have figured that out by looking at any of the Ogre warscroll battalions.

My Ogre collection, like me, are very special snowflakes who do not conform to any formation. I require warscroll points to know where my army currently stands in regards to the widely accepted points value for pickup games. Which doesn't exist yet.

I LOVE Triumph and Treachery, and would love to see how you've adapted the rules for AoS. :-)

Meanwhile, the totally undiscussed third style of play, supposedly an expanded Paths of Glory has me excited too. I'd love a fun, light campaign system with a lot of silliness and randomness. For me that'll be the counter-part I enjoy between sessions of point-matches.
