Retribution of Scyrah

Okay, just so I can illustrate the innerworkings of my mind, I did a quick 15 min workup of what I want the paint job to be.

Enjoy~!

A little New Years Warmachine!

For our group's first Warmachine of the year we played at my place and busted out two very BRUTAL games. First we had Leviathan vs. Siege. In this match up we saw Karchev and Kreoss duke it out with Karchev coming out on top. In round 2 we saw my Cygnar vs. Siege and his Protectorate forces. I used "Siege" vs. his newly acquired Feora. This was a first use with both casters and even after a crucial "Critical Brutal Damage" from my gun mages Feora still crushed my new caster. This was the first time I have picked up my Cygnar since the Hordes fieldtest started and that is a crazy transition back, LOL. Gratz to both Leviathan and Siege for their wins!

Paint

Still looking for a good paint job to go with on my menoth. What do you guys think about:



Well that is if I can pull it off to look like the picture.

Better late than never...

The core group got together a couple of weeks ago and played a couple of games of Warmachine/Hordes. I used the new MKII playtest rules for my Trollbloods and did battle against Siege's Protectorate army. At 35 pts. our armies looked like this:

Trollbloods:

eDoomshaper

-2x Dire Troll Maulers

-2x Impalers

-1x Axer

-1x Kriel Warriors unit

-1x Fell Caller

Protectorate of Menoth:

pSeverius

-1x Blessing of Vengeance

-1x Revenger

-1x Avatar

-1x Vengers Full Unit

-1x Choir of Menoth

-1x Paladin of the Wall

-1x Vassal of Menoth

We played a pretty strait forward assassination game. The terrain was setup according to the tournament scenario guidelines and had a huge impact on the deployment and movement during the game. The new frenzy rules are HARSH!! The only warbeasts that did not frenzy was an impaler that i never forced. The game turned out to be a narrow win for the Trollbloods, but if Severius hadn't gone down that turn it was all over for me the next round. Definably an example of "Playing like you have a pair" on both sides. Great game.

Hordes MKII

I signed up for the new play test last night and after a good reading I have to say that I am both happy and terrified. Some of my favorite things are gone, but some units that I wouldn't have touched with a 10 foot pole are making a strong showing. Cough...Trollkin Thumper...Cough I have to say that the next couple of games are going to be very interesting.

Game Day Confirmed

Looks like the next game day has been confirmed as November 27th. Warmachine 35pts MKII - Note any official revisions that have been posted on the forums about your faction.
