Hi guys,

Last week a fried of mine came here for the week end and we had few games with my Menoths. 25pts vs 25pts, just to show the game..

Now he is back in Italy and he found other 4 or 5 guys to start play with. They are all warhammer player so not new to the wargames but they are all new to WM.

I've been told if I can help with a few points starting list, like 10 points to be added at the battle box. The problem is I can do that for menoth but I've no idea for the other factions. So I'm here Smile

Can you help me out ?

cheers
Fede

p.s. for menoth my suggestion will be:
min Zealot+ Monolith + min choir + reclaimer. to be added at the battle box.
To add to the Battlebox? Hmm. Let me see.

Cygnar
Army: Starters Army
Type: Duel (1 caster, 25pts)
Points: 21
Commander Coleman Stryker (*6pts)
* Charger (4pts)
* Lancer (6pts)
* Ironclad (7pts)
* Squire (2pts)
Stormblade Infantry (Leader and 5 Grunts) (5pts)
Journeyman Warcaster (3pts)

Nice bunch of models in there. Good buffs for jacks and some nice models to use in the army with Cygnar's access to loads of crazy stuff. Big Grin

Khador
Army: Starters Army
Type: Duel (1 caster, 25pts)
Points: 21
Kommander Sorscha (*5pts)
* Destroyer (9pts)

Doom Reavers (Leader and 5 Grunts) (6pts)
Widowmakers (Leader and 3 Grunts) (4pts)

Shows off what Khador does best. Accurate shooting, big swords and crazy dudes.

Army: Starters Army
Type: Duel (1 caster, 25pts)
Points: 21

Shows off Cryx's ability to be everywhere and get in everyone's face.

Mercenaries
Army: Starter Army
Type: Duel (1 caster, 25pts)

Here's a really nice article on getting started in Warmachine MK2: http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2010/01/w...start.html

Hope this helps man. Big Grin
Are they just starting WM or will any be picking up Hordes?
I think they all we start with WM. Mostly because the focus and warjacks.. then maybe they will get Hordes as well. (My friend will probably go for Khador and Troll )

Thanks Vish for the suggestions Smile
Tell me what they think. If they got any ideas for additions to their armies I'll be happy to help out. Big Grin
