Feelin' some Warmachine
You know what game I like? Warmachine. It's one of the most down to earth, get in your face table-top games I've ever played. After playing 8th Ed. Fantasy for a good long time and getting back into 40K as well, I think to myself: I feel like I'm missing something. Could it be the risk of instantly losing the game? Could it be the more realistic cover system? What about the more robust combat system? Or how about the fact that the game is just faster to play? I think it's a combination of all them.
So to show off some of my Cygnar army lists, here are the ones I've been playing with for a while:
Points: 35
Captain Allister Caine (*5pts)
* Ol' Rowdy (9pts)
* Squire (2pts)
Arcane Tempest Gun Mages (Leader and 5 Grunts) (6pts)
* Arcane Tempest Gun Mage Officer (2pts)
* * Defender (9pts)
Rangers (5pts)
Captain Arlan Strangewayes (2pts)
Eiryss, Angel of Retribution (3pts)
Reinholdt, Gobber Speculator (1pts)
Stormsmith Stormcaller (1pts)
This is my eCaine assassination list. It's hell of a lot of fun to play but it's not for the weak of heart. Every move has to be thought of in the most extreme of detail and a wrong move can be mean the death of your caster or a vital piece of your game winning equation. Instead of the Rangers and the Stormcaller, I can also opt to take B13 and Gorman for more gun utility and shenanigans. eCaine can be played in a multitude of ways, but the method I prefer is by opening assassination lanes by pushing or by knock down. Ol'Rowdy and the ATGM UA'd Defender can help in some of that.
Points: 35
Major Markus 'Siege' Brisbane (*5pts)
* Defender (9pts)
* Defender (9pts)
* Stormclad (10pts)
* Squire (2pts)
Black 13th Gun Mage Strike Team (4pts)
Captain Arlan Strangewayes (2pts)
Eiryss, Angel of Retribution (3pts)
Reinholdt, Gobber Speculator (1pts)
This is my Siege list. It has 2x Defenders to take advantage of Siege's Feat round and the Stormclad is there because it's a solid beatstick. The B13 is generally a solid staple to most Cygnar lists and Reinholdt is just mandatory for that extra shot. Arlan is good in this list since it takes some focus off of Siege, but he can easily be replaced by another utility merc such as Gorman. As you can see, I like Gorman di Wulfe a lot. His chemical bombs are just amazing at adding extra damage or blinding a warcaster for assassination. Siege has enough utility by himself to make the rest of the army proud though. He's seriously the only Cygnar warcaster that has an answer for everything.
Points: 35
Major Victoria Haley (*5pts)
* Thorn (8pts)
* Defender (9pts)
* Stormclad (10pts)
* Squire (2pts)
Black 13th Gun Mage Strike Team (4pts)
Stormblade Infantry (Leader and 5 Grunts) (5pts)
Captain Arlan Strangewayes (2pts)
This right here, is my poledancer list. The two big win conditions here is a clear shot to the enemy warcaster with 2x boosted Defender shots with TK and TA.. or a straight out charge from a fully-loaded bonded Stormclad with all of Haley's tricks and whistles to set up the kill. B13 just because I can and Stormblades to do solid damage and act as a fire magnet. They also provide the SC with a free focus so I can utilize Haley's focus to throw out more spells.
