Fire Starter

There are relatively few models or units in Warmachine that are worth taking in multiples. Griffin light myrmidons are an obvious example with Epic Vyros; and the Phoenix heavy myrmidon is another example, although probably only with Adeptis Rahn.

A (Very) Few Good Elves

I have already posted my non-Theme Rahn list and I will try that later in the winter once my Houseguard Thane arrives. In the meantime, I have a cunning plan with Rahn’s No Quarter theme list. When I used this before, I concentrated on getting two units of advance deploying Stormfall Archers on to the table, and while interesting, I think I may have missed a trick.

The Synergy Drug

I played Epic Vyros last night against one of our resident Trollblood players, and all I have to say is, yes, synergy is a thing. It really really is.

Why, Hello 2014

Its New Year Resolution time, and apart from the easy resolutions like “always play painted models” and “paint what you buy” (actually, that one we’ll skip); it is a good time to reflect on my hobby and what I want to do in the coming year.

The Year That Was 2013

In the twilight days of 2013 we have a new Doctor, and somehow I have had a rubbish year despite the fact no one has died and I mostly have my health. No pleasing some people.

Field Guide: Up From The Ashes

The Retribution of Scyrah is the combined arms faction of Warmachine. No where is this more apparent that in the Phoenix, the first of our 10 point heavy myrmidons. Although this guy makes it into almost every list that doesn’t include the big guy, I cannot claim to be an expert on how to use him so this article is an much for my benefit as anyone else’s.

It Was The Week Before Christmas…

And nothing stirred, not even a mouse; probably because the giant Tatzylwurm ate it. But this is getting ahead of ourselves.

All Quiet on the Northern Front

There are times where real life and my hobby just simply refuse to cooperate with each other. I am in the middle of one of those patches at the moment.

The Elf Brick

Despite having a week at home, there has been very little hobby going on. For any regular readers of this blog, this will be a recurring theme. My one hobby ‘task’ was to finish painting Epic Vyros, and I’ve made some progress, ie his horse is done. Almost.

Ravyn’s Revenge

It strange how just a couple of games can completely renew your enthusiasm for this hobby. For various fairly boring reasons, I have not been able to play much Warmachine over the last four weeks so after a long day at the office, I was very happy to be able to go to club on ‘Magic The Gathering’ night and break out my angry elves.
