It's a standard article, no pics currently planned. As you can see in this article and
the Warmachine Kung Fu Series, I've started linking to uncreated articles. Once I get around
to working on the first one, you'll see what I'm interested in doing. Basically I want to create
information on various articles on the site as well as useful information about the game, faction
and background.

A few naming conventions:

Search to see if an article name exists.
Link only to proper nouns for now.
Warcasters and warlocks include their entire title for the creation of links (Check the title in the rulebook)
Capitalize as per normal conventions (no little words etc.)
For the main description of the model, include its name and its type. So Trenchers Unit, Monolith Bearer Unit Attachment. Paladin of the Wall Solo
No need to add the word Character, Warcaster or Heavy or Light. I think we'll stick to just Warjack.

As for the article itself:

Stats are a no-no
Introduction to the unit.
Background information.
Strengths
Weaknesses
Warcaster or Warlock Interaction
Unit or Solo interactions
Odd rulings

I know I'm being vague, but it's a heads up for anyone who's interested in participating in this venture.

Perhaps someday I'll get around to adding a 40k section to the site. Muahaha.

Mostly done. Of course none of the follow-up links are going to get
done anytime soon. Trying to get some of the structure in place before
I go willy nilly on the minutiae. It's going to be a huge learning
experience, that's for certain.

I also have yet to read page five. Yeah, I know. Summarizing
angry rhetoric isnt' one of my strong points.

So finished the Kung-Fu Warmachine 01 Article.

http://www.dakkadakka.com/wiki/en/Warmachine_Kung_Fu_01_-_The_Curse_of_Amon_Ad-Raza

I'm going to use that as my starting point to spread to the stubs.

Here's a sample article for Amon

If you edit, you can copy the structure directly. Create articles only
through existing stubs.

I like these articles. I have been playing Warmachine since before Escalation was released and I'm still finding these very good and insightful.

Hope to see more.

I think this is done. I don't know the order of No Quarter, so I'll have to wait
until I get to that point.
