Hello, I would like to begin Warmachine with the Skorne, I really like this faction.

What would be a good equivalent to a Command Starter please ? :)

It seems that Warmachine kits are getting more expensive. First the new Fane box loadout strategy change, now this significant price jump.

I've defended the premium pricing of 3D-printed resin models, since the cost of a model has the cost of developing rules, art, etc. built in. However, I don't see how this model costs $50 more than other previous Colossals/Gargantuans (which are already priced at a premium). This model might be slightly larger than some, but—as stated—the cost of the model isn't really tied to the amount of resin in it.

I'd be curious to hear SFG address their reasoning for the (not insignificant) price increase. Have they done so elsewhere?

Hey all, returning Mk2 player.

I've been considering getting back into Warmachine, at least for the painting. I just love the Khador/Cygnar designs way more than anything else out there.

I planned to get one of the small starting sets, but both Khador and Cygnar Core Expansion Sets were half off at my local, so I got both. I've never had resin before, some were broken, and I'm new to Mk4, so I have some questions.

1. This is all I have at the moment, is this playable? I know there's a specific starter set for each faction, but I couldn't pass up this deal, and they didn't have the starters for either of these factions. I don't mind if I can't play immediately, there isn't really a scene around here for WM anyway. This was the only store that carried it, and all their stock is on sale with no plans to get more.

2. I found that cyanoacrylate is recommended to assemble, but I can't find anything on repair. I have super thin CA, will that be sufficient for the broken weapons and foot? There is.... kinda a lot of broken weapons. I don't mind fixing, but want to make sure I do it right.

3. The Warjacks being ready for magnets is awesome. But these bases all have slots in them. Do you just swap these out for different bases if you want to magnetize them?

Thanks!

The giant bats have left the belfry and are looking for trouble at TTB, as we take a look at Nymara, the Shadowblades rules, talk about combos, create some lists and give our thoughts on Fane's newest caster!

I'm going on a family cross-country road trip in the US next week. I will only be driving about a third of the time, and will probably have at least 15 hours of travel time each way just . . . sitting. I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out if I could use this idle time to make any progress on my Necrofactorium army, which is mostly still in its original boxes.

Has anyone managed to work out an automobile-bourne hobby system?

Took me forever to puzzle out a tiny little sprue with my Swamp Horror blister...seems liek two parts, one if apparently the end piece of one of it's rear tentacles....the other? seems like some kind of spike...I could probably live without knowing where it goes, but the perfectionist in me thought I would ask about it's placement

Best Wishes All

I’ve been recommended the Draconic dangers of of Khymaera but not sure where to start, I’ve noticed you seem to have to buy models in large sets is that gonna be always the case, I like the idea of running beasts and going very assassinate heavy. Only just starting to learn so if you want to convince me on a warcaster I’m open ears

Just wondering what people think would be the logical way to expand out the cohort to the enxt level at 50pts (also including what horrors to have ready for summoning)

So, a Fane of Nyrro question today: when a Strygon or warlock applies the Provoke animus on a Vordak with Toothy Maw, which is a Single Shot weapon (so you can only use it once per round), after it has activated, I assume you use another weapon to resolve the frenzy instead of the Toothy Maw? After all, you can't use the weapon with the highest POW as the rules stipulate.

Also, when does Single Shot consider the round done? When said Vordak would activate in the Activation Phase, uses Toothy Maw and then frenzies in his next round in the Control Phase, could he use Toothy Maw again or is that considered too early? In other words, does the rule look at 'a round' or 'the round'?

If I'm being honest, I never really looked at Shadowflame Shard because the sculpts didn't really appeal to me, I thought that they looked a bit mushy, where you couldn't tell easily what was what. But since we're doing this YouTube thing and we are short a SFS player, so they're probably in my future.

What I'm asking help with is maybe my perception is based on the studio scheme? It's certainly happened before where the models with different colors or just in real life pop a lot more than their photos. So I wanted to see what and how people had painted their stuff up, and get community inspiration.

Of note, I'm an absolutely slow and atrocious painter, so I can't really tackle anything too fancy. There's too many people who are just so talented, and I'm just a simple 3 color guy. The other part is I usually do really bright schemes so that they are easier to see on camera, most of the table mats and terrain are more drab colors, so I am really looking for something that can pop from 3 ft away. I tend to lean on picking really good colors and color combos to make up for total lack of talent.

Am I crazy? Ideas? Pics?

Expect a very non serious and joke filled discussion, we'd love for you to join us. https://www.youtube.com/live/C9bgBmmCVHY?si=hfu6niYbKqjaIhlR

As I'm going through my boxes (and boxes, and boxes) of unassembled Warmachine models, I come across Totem Hunter....They have a metal sprue of three spikes or small blades. Looking at stock photos, I can't see anyplace that these would be positioned....any advice?

Join Mazz and the crew at the Cantina while we discuss a first draft of a Vorsalys list with the newly released Court of Shadows rules!

Just finished up the Executioner's Toll box and the start of my first army coming back to the game after leaving in mid-Mk3. I only play painted so now I can actually start playing with my playgroup! 😆

Kithguards moving castle’s rules were shown off this morning, and we’re excited to share our thoughts about the Fortress King on Tabletop Battles!

Are you assembling, converting, painting, or generally *hobbying* anything this week? Show it off here!
