@Khoranis as someone who owns a 3d printer, I cant justify paying pp for their models when I could make them at home for pennies.

So here’s what really killed Warmahordes: A major selling point was how they play tested the hell out of the new edition. And for 80% of the factions, it was. It was not for Skorne, or Trollbloods. While the latter had had a little taste of glory in competitive (usually getting nerfed after), Skorne was a near bottom feeder, easily the worst of the nine core factions. Most players were hoping for mid table. They sunk below Mercs, Minions, and Convergence. The Skorne Community on PP’s own forums were livid. PP’s response, on top of every other bad thing that you mentioned, was to kill the forums. This is what I think truly killed the game: scattering the community and implementing “no negativity” posting. Proof the community would be right would come six months later, when they got the first rules overhaul, and had had zero 1st-3rd place finishes (when everyone else had at least one). All this said, and while I would have preferred a AoS 1.0 style rules rewrite, I LOVE everything about this. Except the price. It’s fine. But I want to see GW’s model come down, and I think it’s about $50 too much for the starter and $40 too much for the add-on pack to pose a major threat to GW’s Top Spot.

Let's be honest, at this point pretty much nothing will ever take Games Workshop's top spot in terms of tabletop wargaming. They've been doing this for far too long and their various IP's have aspects that appeal to almost everyone in some form or another. Privateer Press coming in with a new edition and offering 3d printed miniatures certainly isn't going to be it. But I do wish PP the best of luck moving forward, and I hope that MkIV is a mega success for them. I really enjoy the Iron KIngdoms, and was a dedicated Warmachine player for a very, very long time. (And I do agree with you that PP's pricing on these sets is a bit too high; $200 is a BIG ask for a new edition when they've burned quite a few bridges in the past with both customers and retailers alike.

Warmachine 2nd was my game. I loved it. I had one of the most active scenes in the country and played every week. I dropped out when it started to be more like Warhammer. Lots of new armies and big centerpiece models that caused the average point value of a game to go up and get more confusing. I really hope 4th is fun again. If you haven't played it it really is the most fun tactical game on the market. The spell system is great and the ability to win out of nowhere adds so much fun and tactical depth.

I am weirdly incredibly interested in how they are handling they’re new model production. Entire range to be 3D printed, and all attachments will have pre made slots for magnets which come in box. They want you to magnetize these models so you have more fun swapping things out. That’s damn cool

"Just glue the model together" Omg I feel this so hard. Every time I ask about a loadout I get the answer, "magnets".

I'm excited for the relaunch, I bought a whole Khador army at my flgs for $35 as they dumped their used Warmachine stuff. It's sat unpainted sometimes used for DnD, but it seems I may finally give them a go.

I liked flat terrain back when I played Warmachine. It was usually printed with a really nice image so you knew exactly what it was. It looked better than you would expect on the board too. And I didn't have to worry about the minis that I had spent hours assembling and painting falling over and shattering because I had to try to balance them on a styrofoam hill. Not saying I dislike 3D terrain, just saying the flat terrain isn't so bad.

Fantastic video! Super excited to see you covering this. Can’t wait for more!

I'm very excited above t the new edition! I already ordered my Cygnar preview battle group. I will for sure watch any Warmachine content you put out.

Excited to see you cover this more, if only for the effects it might have one the industry in general. I also wouldn't mind seeing lore vids like the lovely AoS series you've done, but that might be a big ask depending on how much work they are 😅

I am super interested in the lore and world of the iron kingdoms and would love to see videos on it, the aesthetic of the setting was one of the things that made me want to get into war gaming so I really hope this move works for them, it sounds way more consumer friendly so that's a big plus for me

I'm a good bit biased in this situation because I play Ret and it's a faction that doesn't exist in the new time period, but I'm quite disappointed in the fact that existing models are being relegated to a separate format and that new rules like Command Cards and Warjack Customization aren't going to apply to legacy armies. I'll give mkIV a shot with the models I have, but I doubt I will stick with it. I'm very hesitant about buying any of the new models, as all new minis will be 3d printed, and they're charging quite the premium for the new kits

Got yourself a new subscriber. Thank you so much for the more balanced and nuanced take on what PP is doing. I for one am very, very excited for MK4. The price point for the armies is, I think, just low enough for me to get one of my mates into it :) He absolutely couldn't before.

So glad you could cover this. Been a consistent Warmachine player for over 7 years. I am so glad they are moving the story forward and making new product while reducing the sku bloat. So all the new Warjacks going forward will be getting all the customization options. All the older jacks will still be their preset as before.

Ever since I left Warmachine after the release of MKIII, I have not been able to find something that really scratches that ouch like WM did. This announcement actually has me excited to play again. As such, I would enjoy seeing WM and Iron Kingdoms on your channel.

I’m finding this video about a year after you published it. I’m an old war machine/hordes player from Mk one and two, and it really fell off with Mk 3 in my gaming circles. We play everything from conquest to malfux to AOS. The problem that most of us are finding is, we invested hundreds of dollars in our armies, and now, private to your press, wants us to scrap our old armies, and buy all new models for different factions. Given the economy in the US, and the fact that we have hundreds of dollars of models that we’re not allowed to play with anymore (competitively), there is very little interest.

As a curious AoS player I’m stoked to hear about this “new” system :) I loved every second of your community rant! Keep doing what you do Doug 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

I played at the beginning and won events in the northeast and gen con and origins, I about 2009, I focused on blood bowl and let WM fade in my mind. But now, I am back, working on learning the new rules and meta. I just got back in this month and am dying to game w a new group and enjoying the rebuild. nice video!

I'm interested to see where all this is going. I have been drooling over some of their monsters.

A few friends and I are extremely excited about the new mk4 rules and announcement. We played back in mk2 and into mk3, we weren't involved in the mass community at the time and we didn't understand why everyone was pooping on them. The community died out but we are going to play isolated if it doesn't pick up in the local area. The sculpts look very nice and throwing magnets into the kits is a huge step!

Yes please continue to follow / discuss war machine. You seem fair and not biased toward drama. Just the facts, which I appreciate!

Rhulic is the dwarfs you were trying to think of

Your experience with Warmachine is similar to mine--I drifted into Warhammer during the End Times because I was drawn to the dynamic narrative, and after spending weeks painting up my first army for my first Warmachine tournament I felt disappointed that I lost my games so fast and to opponent's armies which weren't even primed and even "missing arms"! But I'm excited at this news that Warmachine isn't gone.

PP’s plan for Mk4 is designed to be very new player friendly and enticing. That being said, there’s little to bring existing players of previous versions into this edition. Their OP strategy is designed solely for the new armies. Yes, you might be able to bring in some older models but it’s mostly the new stuff. Yes, they will update to allow you to use existing models eventually but their primary mode of play is described by them as an anything goes arena akin to the Wild West. So if your collection is not going to be part of their new army building methodology, you’re effectively going back to third edition and playing with unbalanced broken…stuff. I had been playing since the game first came out but couldn’t take the insanity of trying to prepare for the massive number of gotcha moments coming at you. Their immense model bloat and addition of more and more rules made the game essentially unplayable. And now they’re telling us that that is our only option for OP. Umm, just no. And I agree that the pricing of their new starters and expansions is ridiculous. It’s the same issue with their sci-fi warcaster game. I like the designs, the rules look decent but the price is way too high. I wish them luck but they have a serious uphill road to climb and they seem to be throwing broken glass in their own path.

Honestly, the majority of people that I see are interested in MKIV are old players from MKII, myself included. These new rules are addressing most of the issues that a lot of old school players said was problematic (abusive spam lists, gotcha scenarios that your faction may have little to no answer, theme lists that provide such huge benefits that you have to take them; because if you don't build one but your opponent does, you're going to be too far behind the 8-ball to win, etc). I think the big issue they are going to face is convincing players who felt burned by MKIII to give it another shot

Warmachine will always have a special place in my heart as it was also my first step into miniature painting and gaming. I would be lying if I said I did not want you covering it. I think warmachine has awesome anesthetics and lore

I would like to hear more about this! Warma-hordes sits in a really weird space for me. It was sold to me as a skirmish game but turns out it was an army sized game.

Maybe a little bit late to the party here, but 16:30 talking about only some of the warjacks having arm-swap options; only new Mk IV releases are getting the new mechanics like the modular jacks and spell rack options. The Stryker is a Mk IV jack so it has the 64 possible loadouts, while the other unit cards are for legacy models. The plan is that new Armies will have just three Warcasters, two jacks, and a handful of units and solos and that's it, so basically _every_ Army is a Convergence of Cyriss style limited release. Meanwhile the Mk IV launch will also include two Armies for each faction built from the existing range that doesn't have all the new mechanics but does have a wider range of models to compensate, so the Stalker doesn't have weapon options but the Cryx Bane-themed army has five jacks available. And then, on top of that, there will be Cadre models that can be used by any Army that belongs to the same Faction as the Cadre, and that's where the Colossals, Gargantuans, and Battle Engines are eventually going to live. (And the Unlimited format exists where you can play anything that shares a Faction together, but they've flat out stated it won't be as well balanced.) I think it's a good compromise to allow existing players to continue using their collections while also not bogging themselves down with needing to balance every new thing against the entire range forever.

"Wonder why they died alone and lonely..." Thank for the laugh. I'm definitely that guy.

To help out with the "flat terrain" discussion. Privateer Press never embraced mousepad terrain, but the community used it extensively. All we did was take out the specific rule for Elevation mattering, much like GW did when they declared that hills are just part of the battlefield surface and not a piece of terrain.

Warmachine was what got me started on war gaming. I'm so glad they're going hard to bring it back into the light.

32:00 No they most certainly did _not_ trim down the number of stats, they actually _added_ three. A lot of models used to have Magic Ability (X) where X was how good they were at casting spells, that's been replaced by adding an Arcane Attack stat to MAT and RAT, and Warcasters also used to use the FOC stat to control how much Focus they had and how good they were at casting spells _and_ how far away Warjacks and Warbeasts could get from them, and now those are three different stats.

Thank you for this video. This gives me a good feeling about the game and I look forward to seeing more of it…when you can. 😉 I’ll be willing to give it a try and promote it to my community. Thank you.

Yasssssss minions!!! Granted I was more blindwater than farrow but one of my favorite warlocks was sturm and drang

The new edition sparked a big surge in new and renewed interest in the game and if you find that you enjoy it again there's definitely an audience that's hungry for it.

I liked the Animus system in Hordes. Basically each beast gave your Warlock an additional spell, and your beasts could cast them too. I can see the confusing part is your warlock had to spend fury to cast and the beast generated fury by casting them. I played trollkin, so I often doubled up on much needed animus like the ones Dire-trolls and Axers had.

I was a Khador player who really Loved the Farrow, I remember getting up to some absolute nonsense back in the day with Butcher3, Rorsh, and Brine. People told my list was stupid, but 60% of the time it worked every time. B3 is basically an assassination machine, everyone knows, and everyone knows to bog him down as hard as you can, but with Rorsh, Brine, and a Battle Boar you have a secondary credible assassination vector with a similar deceptively long non-linear engagement range against all but the most sturdy of Warcasters/locks. It's more tenuous than Orsus Zaktovir's reputation, but fully buffed Brine is an absolute that that can pressure units off of objectives if you're setting up for it and youre prepared for your beasts to go Berserk on the next turn (Warmachine was resource management, Hordes was risk management). I wish more piggies were willing to work for the motherland, because I might have picked them up as a second faction.

We sharpened ourselves against and learned a lot, we didn't even change our lists, but his attention on Ruin and my use of it was actually the focus of our rivalry, and it paid off better for me because I was learning the best implementation of a model I was using, and he was learning a model that only I was playing in the local meta)

Just played a game a couple days ago. Had a blast.

I got into Warmachine way back when it first launched all those years ago. Don't mention the number, my knees hurt enough as it is. It was definitely a breath of fresh air after years of 40k dominance, and watching the game grow and evolve over the years was a delight. Oddly enough, it wasn't the lack of painting that made me eventually step away from the game. Painting seems to be a lot more popular down here. No, it was the hardcore tournament players. As that side of the game took off, it became harder to find someone willing to play a more casual game. There's only so many times you can play against fully tested and tweaked lists, inevitably losing on the second or third turn because your brain isn't a battle computer that can estimate charge distances at a glance, before a game loses its shine. But hey, I'm pleased to see PP moving forward with Mk4. Blending the Warmachine and Hordes rules together makes sense. STL printing kits seems odd now, but will probably pay off in the long run, and including slots for magnets is a genius move.

IDK if you twigged since this video but judging by PP's public comments Cryx and Menoth are never getting new minis. At most the concepts might appear in a future new faction but, as with Dusk replacing Retribution, they're all about new factions. The legacy rules are really just to soften the blow for legacy armies, which will never get modular jacks etc.

Yes, I absolutely want variety in my wargames. Please keep it up, even if they aren't as common as 40k/AoS! And I agree, I think people bring the videogame/ mmo mentality "ded gam", and that's not healthy for wargaming nor accurate. I have a curious feeling how many people play the exact same group of folks over and over and not the rando at the shop or practice tournament games. Of those 3-4-5-6 other people, if they had a small force or rotating schedule, the game wouldn't seem so dead. Also, the competition made GW get their collective baggage together. Competition in the miniature sphere is a good thing. If PP can take a slice of GW's pie, I'd bet we could see digital codex's and rules. Or I'm dreaming.🤷‍♂

Storm legion models will no longer be immune to lightning, instead they will only be resistant to it. Check the rules and this means that instead of 2d6+ damage it's only 1d6+ damage. Which kinda sucks for screening an electro-leap gun with your models. But it's clear they're doing this because there will be so few army options at the beginning of mk4

While I think they are beautiful the colossal‘s and gargantuan‘s where the beginning of the end for me. If I wanted to play with knights I would play 40 K. The theme forces of Mk three and everyone taking the same theme forces with the same free models also should’ve been a red flag. That being said I’m very excited for this new addition and while I have to wait a while for my protectorate and circle I’ll wait patiently and get what I can without having to buy a whole army

So by the end of Mk III, they had Circle, Convergence, Crucible, Cryx, Cygnar, Grymkin, Infernals, Khador, Legion, Mercenaries, Minions, Protectorate, Retribution, Skorne, and Trollbloods.

im up for warmachine videos! :)

I played cygnar and what killed it for me was the continual nerfs of my favorite models. Haley 2 got nerfed into the ground Caine 2 nerfed into the ground. While other factions got buffs or new stuff it felt the models I had bought were being made unplayable.

I'm so excited for this, mk 1 was my first actual wargame The middle earth magazine was my gateway but my local gaming community was very much over GW at the time and everyone was playing warmachine and hordes mk 1. I really really hope this turns out great. And if they're printing the minis anyway, I wish they would just straight up sell stls on-line Edit: apparently they will sell stls, wow

Yes please make more warmachine content.

I think it's a great idea to cover another game. This was a great game at one point if it can get back to it we will just have more options to play.

Like most things teens and young folks get into, politics and games, they have a childish need to be catered to. They need to have the focus on them.

Summary of each faction: Cygnar - Morally best of all the kingdoms, but subtly imperialist and bigoted to non-human races prior to Oblivion. Khador - Russia. Every Russian stereotype is there. Honestly imperialist and bigoted to non-Khadorans. Ord - Spain and Pirates. Llael - France with biowarfare. Ios - Racist/Isolationist Elves. Rhul - Patriarchal Dwarves. Protectorate of Menoth - Religious zealots who hate anyone who isn’t thinking about Menoth 24/7. Cryx - Nagash’s wet dream, mostly because it’s a bunch of islands. But good luck taking it, since it’s ruled by a dragon.

Yeah man….. I started playing this game 4 months before legends came out. They had the minis world by the balls and squandered that all the whole GW was course correcting. I think the only way they’ll survive is bringing back pressgangers you can almost watch their numbers dip with direct correlation to when they removed pressgangers. They were the real reason this game became successful.

Just found your channel. Seeing little what is being said about Warmachine. Haven't played in months and last I did was brawlmachine which I thought was great way to get new players at smaller points which we actually got new players in. I've played Warmachine/Hordes since early MK2. Personally my group and I liked/loved MK3 due that lot of rules were changed in good way but it did mess with some factions in bad ways like Skorne. I feel like the game found a balance finally even with the large amount of models for each faction. I liked that PP never devalued my army. I hope they still don't is my biggest concern going forward. I would like if they left MK3 available for those that may still want to play it if they want. But I understand why PP is doing what they are doing as a company. they got to make something for folks to buy and they have to make it where folks can easily pick it up and play and stores can carry it without the bloat of models. My local group are excited about these changes. Due to personal life challenges and too much stress, I'm not looking forward to learning new stuff. Perhap later when I have less stress. Or when I see my beloved Circle return. I may play Legacy since I have so much of their stuff.

The other beta rules are trickling out, so won't take long to see all the other stuff they got in the pipeline. I am nervous about those extra spells. A lot of t he time that turns into a none choice.

I picked up the Orgoth preview box, I figure this is basically Warmachine 2, so new game new army.

I would love u to talk about warmachine some of my favorite gaming memories

Id love some warmachine content (lore, news updates, new factions etc...) Not so much battle reports
