The point of me trying to swap over was to “trick” my players in to trying a new game, by letting them use everything they already own. If I ask them to buy new forces for a game they’ve probably not thought about before they’ll likely resist, but if I turn up and say we can try a thing with what they’ve already got on the table I’m far more likely to get them to give it a go. That’s the reason I was looking at Firefight. I thought it would be compatible enough to get started with what we have, and from a big enough company and part of a large enough collection of game systems that it might be tempting if I pushed. I’m not interested in Firefight specifically. I’m interested in a sneaky backdoor out of 40k I can trick my friends in to using without really meaning to. Firefight looked like the best bet, and does sound good. One Page Rules might be great, but I fear that brand doesn’t carry enough weight with my group yet.
