So I was looking a basic list in the new WM II format and ran across and old battlebox list

Coleman Stryker
Journeyman War caster
Lancer
Charger
Ironclad

Stryker get +6 points and the rest of the list comes in at 14 points. So as a basic format list will this still play well?

It's probably not awful, but I don't think the JWC adds a lot. Arcane Shield is nice, but the JWC is a pretty fragile 3 points that doesn't add that much to the list, imho, YMMV. I'd think about dropping the JWC and taking another Charger.

What does 15 point mean? Is it short for 150 points?

No, it's the new point cost per Warmachine Mark II.

It means 15 points, under the new point rules in Mark two, it's about 350.

Well if you use the old points it is actually about 345 of very close to that.

New point system seems to allow more Jacks be used in an army.

Also, I own only 1 charger. It is the only light Jack that I never got around to buying a second one. May need to get one now?

Wow...those are major changes. Is there going to be a new rulebook and new faction decks? When do the rules come into effect? Are they final or still being balanced?

right now they're field testing.
the rules won't go into effect until next january or so, when they'll release a new rulebook and faction cards

New rulebook next year. New faction decks with all relevant unit rules released simultaneously (new
artwork yay! pay for new cards, boo!)

After that, codex style books for each faction with all released units.

Signs point to business as usual after that, but nothing is certain.
