Hey all!

Longtime 40k Player now trying out Warmachine. I decided to go Mercs for something different and really liked the look of Drake Macbain. My problem is I'm not sure what all to get with him. I'd like a decent starter army. As of now the only purchases I've made is Macbain, a Nomad, and Rutger Shaw because he looked interesting. Steelheads look interesting but I'm not sure if that's the way to go and if I should use Riflemen or Halberdiers. Any advice is much appreciated!

Mercs is my main army, but i honestly havent looked into Macbain lists to be much help.

But from what i have seen.

Boomhowlers are good options for him.
