Subject: [Privateer Press] Warmachine: High Command - new Deck Building card game rules and info released
Privateer Press is releasing their new Deck Building card game, High Command, at Gencon over in the US, and so they've put out the rules and details for it a little early. The base set will be playable out of the box (like a board game, or Dominion), and will get expansions and extra cards as time goes on. They're also doing Tournament support for it, so it can be a competitive game as well as a casual board game.
The game will be available from the end of the month (28th). They're also doing a pre-release of the Hordes: High Command (compatible box with another 4 factions in it), but that won't be out as a general release for a couple of months yet.
Sounds pretty awesome altogether.
CRUSH YOUR ENEMIES ON YOUR PATH TO CONQUEST
The fires of continent-spanning war engulf western Immoren, forging great leaders in a crucible of conflict. Bold commanders orchestrate grand strategies and daring battlefield tactics, their actions bringing glorious victory—or the despair of final defeat.

WARMACHINE High Command is a deck-building card game for 2–4 players set in the steam-powered fantasy world of the Iron Kingdoms. This stand-alone game can be played with just the contents of this box or combined with other WARMACHINE High Command products for a customizable experience. Leverage your resources, rally your armies, and dominate your foes to set your banner above all of western Immoren!
This box contains game rules and 386 cards, including: 89 Cygnar cards 89 Khador cards 89 Protectorate of Menoth cards 89 Cryx cards 15 Winds of War cards 15 Location cards
and a short official video about the game (from back in February, included for those who haven't seen it):

Assuming you have a card in your hand to deploy, don't you just put it down and discard enough other cards as resources to pay it's Purchase price? That's assuming you'd already Purchased it from the market and had it come back through your deck.
I suppose it's a little confusing that you have to purchase a card into your deck and then purchase a card from your hand to the table.
