SteamRoller 2.1 Released
After Origins Privateer re-worked the 2006 Steamroller 2.0 Rules and at first glance seem to have done a commendable job, I look forward to playing them at Gencon. You can read PPS_Biggie's post regarding the changes here and download your very own copy of the updated ruleset and scenario's here.
Muddy Waters
Dacarnix reviews the differences between Warmachine and Hordes and the viability of a mixed environment. "The release of Hordes is something without precedent, really. It’s a miniatures game that’s compatible with Warmachine, but it’s also a viable miniatures game in its own right. Some call it “four more Warmachine factions.” Others think it would be best if the two were kept completely separate."Read more... Discuss this Article Here.
What I did at the Weekend
Kelriever describes his frustration at tournaments from this years Origins convention in Columbus OH. "There's a lot that's worthwhile to say about Origins, but the starter for me is to talk about how dead tournaments are, at least for me. You know it’s bad when you don't like most of the games you won, and the most fun you had was spending no money and playing pick up games." Read more... Discuss this article Here.
Primal Order: TrollBloods Analysis
Malcain takes a look at the Trollblood faction of Hordes. "So you have primal staring at you and you're wondering, "What the hell can I do with (insert model name here)"? That's the question I'm going to try to help answer when it comes to Trollbloods." Discuss this article Here.
Tournament Terror!
Dacarnix touches on a pet peeve of all honest players, the player who is willing to bend and break the rules to get an upperhand. "Gaming, at its heart, is about having fun, and a good number of players enjoy a healthy, competitive atmosphere. It’s hard if not impossible to enjoy such events, though, if some players choose not to play by the rules.." Discuss this Article Here.
From albany to indy
It's a little late but here is my laid back report of the 4 days I spent hanging out at Gencon 06. "After driving the sixteen hours to Gencon in previous years I decided to fly out with Ranz and LMBB this year so we show up at Albany International Airport 3:30AM Thursday morning ready for out 5:30 flight. This also happens to be the morning they arrested 18 terrorists in the UK so the airport is freaking out" Discuss this Article Here.
VLAD - Fanfic
Funny and true to game mechanics, Slappy has produced some of the best Warmachine fan-fics I have had the misfortune to read. "Vlad then ordered all the mortars left to hit the Cryxian positions. They fired…but kept missing?? Then the Old Witch emerged from a forest and made a Sign at Vlad. He understood. Then he looked in the sky and saw an eagle. It was a portent!! All the sudden the mortars started hitting their targets… "

ArchDomina Makeda
Mr.Sota presents the first of his analysis of Skorne Warlocks by looking at ArchDomina Makeda. "Makeda’s spells and feat are designed with troops in mind. She is considered a Troop warlock, so troop selection is paramount. Also consider that the final list will need some form of heavy hitting power for high armored Troops and Warbeasts."

Competitive vs Casual
Ranz's humourous look at the difference between casual and competitive players. "I have always played games. I don’t play computer games unless I have a friend sitting there trying to stop my touchdown drive or receiving my killing blow as a sinister voice says “FINISH HIM!!!” ." Discuss this Article Here.
Lord Tyrant Hexeris
Here is Mr.Sota's second installment taking a look at the recently released Lord Tyrant Hexeris. "Many combinations can be made with Hexeris’ spell list and the animus/abilities from Warbeasts. Since Hexeris will frequently have fury to burn, he will have an opportunity to capitalize on Animi from Warbeasts."

Khador Purchase Guide
One of our long time Khador players Mengu put together this quick guide on how to go about starting your khador army from scratch. "Often times I hear people wanting to start Warmachine and don’t know what to purchase, or sometimes people will want a second or third faction and need some advice where to start. Well, with the help of some Komitatus members, I made a quick guide to start a Khador army. Since I’m an all painted all the time kind of guy, I also took into consideration modeling and painting."
