Subject: New Warmachine faction- Convergence of Cyriss
My hopes for some crazy Orgoth-style Remnant crushed again (hopefully Hordes)
The thing I am curious about is since WM factions represent the backings of industrial powers with actual established nations, then where is Cyriss going to be based? They got some other province that Cygnar did not want out in nowhere?
Underground. Same as the Cephalyx I imagine.

And the changing stats based on warcaster takes the thing I hate most about Warmachine (The 'caster specific meta) and cranks it to 20.
Isnt the Caster kind of the central part of Warmahordes? Thats like complaining about the central premise of the King in Chess
Its not like 40k where if you wanted to you could just have a bare bones leader and focus on everything else.
Except, imagine if, in chess, your king acted differently based on which king you have. Some are standard kings with 1 square moves, some are upgraded to knight L-moves, and just a couple are queen-move gods. You try getting checkmate on a king that can move like a queen.
The caster is central tot the game, but the variance of caster abilities and levels is insanely unbalanced.
So the main premise of the most balanced tournament games is unbalanced?
Alright
