I actually just picked up some Hordes minis. I wouldn't mind learning the game sometime.

I still have 2 starter sets and the old rules, well 2 years old. I doubt my minis are still in one piece though Smile

How hard is Warmachine? I always liked the minis. We used some of them in some DnD campaigns.

think its super easy actually. The rules all make pretty much sense and the cards for the minis really state alll the rules that apply to the mini on them. you just need to learn how to read the card stats really in my opinion.

CJ · Subject: Re: Warmachine Tue Dec 23, 2008 3:18 pm

whats good to start out with??? I was looking at this too....is there a starter? Rule book?

Don't let CJ play! Actually, for you CJ, I'd recommend the Trollbloods. They seem like they'd be up your alley, in terms of models you'd like. Very cool models.

Buy a warpack and that'll give you the quickstart rules. The nice thing about this game is that the rules are incredibly intuitive.

The rule book is like a 25.00 softcover and you want the warmachine prime:remix version. they did make starters for some armies ( i play Cryx and I know Matt plays Khador and Altahara was using Mercs). Most games I have been a part of are 500 or 750 pts.

I'm liking Cygnar (sp) Looking at some of the mini's for these guys and I can already See my paint scheme.

Witt.....just think, it will be another game for you to beat me at...lol

I printed out the quick start rules and an example of the cards.....it's just like and card/mini based game. Rules seem pretty easy as well.

Will buying a battle group be a good start with the rule book?
