Warlord Games: Our Beyond the Gates of Antares ruleset is now ready for the first stage of public playtesting: we call it the Alpha version. Our Alpha playtest program is open to all volunteers, and you can sign up simply by filling out the form below and registering as a playtester. Once you have signed up you will have access to the Antares Playtesters forum where soon you will be able to download the Alpha version of the Antares ruleset as a pdf. You will also be able to read the update files, post comments and participate in the discussion.
Anyone can sign up as an Alpha playtester without any obligation to participate in our development program. No doubt many will wish to do so simply to take a look at our work in progress, and that’s just fine by us. Either way, please bear in mind the Alpha ruleset is very much a work in progress and not yet a complete set of rules; although, we are hoping our Alpha playtesters will be helping us do something about that!
The Alpha ruleset therefore covers only a limited number of factions and the rules only allow for basic infantry combat at this stage. The objective of the Alpha playtest program is to stress test the core rules platform, and at the same time extending the rules to cover further factions and elements. Updates and errata to the rules will be published onto the Antares Playtesters forum over the course of the Alpha program, which is scheduled to last until November 2014. You can sign up here.
