Hi guys, I'm here to tell you what me and my friends do when we want to play but don't have much time, we call them Nothing-Games. Basically you get your caster and fill your WB/WJ points so that your at 0. However you don't have to spend them on WB/WJ, you can spend them on units and solos aswell! So it takes about an hour and it's pretty fun. If we have more time we usually go 4 way free for all or something aswell.

For a quick game 15 points do it wel enough in about an hour. With that many points it is also possible to make different kinds of lists. For instance if hordes also plays then they will always be at a severe disadvantage. Mortenebra only has a few points and needs screening to be able to do anything. And so on. In 15 points there is at least some potential to build up a screen...

The other side of the coin is Kara sloan and B13. That leaves some points for another solo even. They are pretty onesided to play, but are pretty devestating. Same with denny and 2 units of mechthralls. On feat turn they will decimate all... And then there is Goreshade with a small units of banes, plus another small unit of banes. They are pretty devestating in this small a game...

On the other hand, if it works for you then use it...

Run a timer. 15 points, 2 minute turns

Timed Warmachine games are alot of fun, many mistakes are made, but it doesnt matter because everyone is makeing them. Makes for a really interesting time.
