I wanted to play 40K solo without flowcharts, so I built my own engine. It's out now on Wargame Vault (PWYW)

Hi everyone!

I've been playing 40K solo for a while, and every system I tried either slowed the game to a crawl or felt like filling out a spreadsheet.

So I built Oddan's Solo Heresy — a card-driven solo engine for 10th and 11th edition that keeps the battle moving without killing the narrative. Any battle reports, rule edge cases, or constructive criticism would be highly appreciated to help improve the system.

It's Pay What You Want - grab it, break it, and tell me what you found!

I need your advice - front is quite ok but I have a feeling that back of the model is too simple. What do you recommend to add? The goal is Palanite Enforcer Captain fighting outside the Hive (ash wastes).

Printing Cards Tutorial - As promised, I’d like to show you a short, basic tutorial on how to prepare a card deck at home.

What You’ll Need

• A printer and regular paper, ideally 80g weight since lighter paper folds more easily. If you have a cartridge printer, it can get a bit expensive. I use a Brother T535W with refillable ink - a very, very economical option.

• A large quantity of cheap commons from any other popular TCG like Magic or Altered. You can buy them for pennies in very large quantities. I bought a few thousand Altered commons for under $30 USD.

• 63×88mm sleeves (Classic Card Game) with a solid thickness. I use 100μm ones - I think any premium series will do fine. They give a really great feel in your hands.

• A guillotine or paper trimmer - costs under $20 and saves an incredible amount of time. I use a simple Fiskars trimmer. You can of course work with scissors or a craft knife, but it’ll take longer and won’t be as precise.

• A bookbinding or hobby knife - if something comes out crooked, you can easily correct and trim it.

Step by Step

  1. Prepare your print sheet using the provided template, or download a ready-made PDF (coming soon!). Each sheet fits 4 cards (front + back). Three are folded along the shorter edge (the top row) and therefore have a mirrored back graphic. One is folded along the longer edge.

  2. Print a test sheet to check the scaling. It should work with default settings, but be sure to hold your MTG or other game common card up to it to confirm the size is right. Printed cards should be identical in size. Don’t forget to set high print quality for the best and most vibrant colors.

  3. After printing, let the ink dry - give it about an hour before you start cutting.

  4. Cut the cards with a trimmer or guillotine - this is the most precise and fastest method. Seriously, if you’re committed to this project, you’ll lose far more time than those $20–30 for a good tool are worth. Of course, if you’re in a hurry and excited, you can do a few cards with scissors or a knife - just watch out for crooked cuts.

  5. Once all cards are cut, fold them along their respective edges first.

  6. Insert a TCG common inside each folded print to provide the right card stiffness and the feel of a real card game.

  7. Slip it into a sleeve and your card is ready to play.

Additional Notes

• For storage and organization I use binders and 9-slot pages from Gamegenic.

• You’ll need to print two copies of each card (except Legendaries, Warlords, Ephemerals, and Defence cards - you only need one copy of those).

• You can reprint additional copies of any card at any time - for example extra Intercessor Marines that enter play from other cards.

• Spread the project out over a longer period - it’s a truly massive number of cards and you definitely won’t finish it in a single evening.
