Soul Slave? Cull Souls? A fan that Blinds? Razor Wurm? Someone at Privateer has been reading my dirty filthy Skorne-douchebaggery-hope-chest diary!
If I didn’t already love the Skorne so damn much, this would have done it. All you rage-quitting theorymachiners out there can start sending me your bargain basement Skorne offers right now!
Let’s talk for a moment about how freakin’ ...

Here are the next couple of models in my NorCal-inspired Skorne army; Master Tormentor Morghoul & a Cyclops Savage. Plus some better shots of the Krea and Zaal.
Bases have been left till later, as always.

In the wake of all the recent conspiracy-theory laced rambling on the Privateer forums, I’ve been thinking about something; is it possible that Matt Wilson & Co really do have a secret agenda of some kind? Beyond just making awesome games and running the company? Is there something about Warmachine/Hordes that’s fiendishly designed to influence our behavior? ...

A recent string of unfortunate trade attempts resulted in my playing Cygnar again, rather than starting my fancy new Protectorate of Menoth army.
(And apropos that, let me send out a big, heartfelt Fuck You to people who can’t grasp the concept that when you mail things, you shouldn’t endzone-spike a pile of heavy shit onto fragile models from 5 feet up, ...

Here are some more of the red merc army models.
The bases on most of these are still WIP. I hate doing the finishing steps on bases for some reason, so I always do them as the very last step, in a big batch, when all the models are done.
Credit for the Wrecker conversion goes ...

I thought I’d post some of my red-themed Merc forces here. I did these originally as an add-on force to bring a Khador army up to 1000 points in Mk 1. The Khador part of the plan never really panned out, but the mercs looked good, so I stuck with the red scheme when I ...

So I realized recently that I’ve been into this whole minatures hobby for a long-ass time. And for the first time, as it relates to my hobbies anyway, I felt old.
Disclaimer: this gets a little rant-ish in the middle. If you are easily offended by humorous hyperbole, think the general use of the word “you” is ...

I jotted down some thoughts on the topic of why people tend to play either primarily good-guy armies, or stick with mostly evil forces, and I thought I’d share them here. Here goes;
I have a hard time playing the good guys in sword-n-sorcery (or steampunk for that matter) games. Unless they’re the really hard-line, ultra-committed paladin ...

So one thing I’ve noticed recently is that man, I do not know what about 80% of the models in Warmachine do any more. Let alone Hordes. Let alone updates-comin-atcha-every-6-days-or-so-Field-Test-Hordes……
I’ve been playing against a new group of opponents, encountering things I’ve never had to deal with before, and I’m shocked at how much of this game (that I ...
