Which appeals to you the most?  Any reason is fine...rules, models, etc.

I like that most of their weapons have reach, or can get reach. Also the models. I have a feeling the druids will be hit or miss, as well as the lord of the feast.

Honestly, they all appeal to me about the same, except the Legion.

I like the Trolls best of all, Circle has my favorite models out of all 'em, but I can't get into their fluff, Skorne has good fluff and nice models, but they're a *female dog* to put together and I'm not huge into the Asian look, and I love the legion casters and beasts, but hate their Nyss sculpts.

But I will be getting Circle since Jeff only has eyes for Trolls and I don't want us to get screwed when the inevitable campaign rules come.

Ahem.

TROLLS

I originally went with skorne, the battle box minis rule, but legion is growing on me more and more....

Circle == ninjas!

everblight.everything i love. the box is not my idea of a good list tho. although a skorne army of cyclops and the basilisk combo is very tempting.

i love the legion

I really like Circle, totally awesome models and really sneaky rules which is always fun. I actually like the Skorne warbeasts a heck of a lot better but their solo and warcasters I just can't seem to like, and I don't think I can lead an army with their fluff, just don't like it.

Circle for me. Just something about a big pile of rocks laying the smackdown that I find appealing.

Trolls are the faction that is drawing my eye most, and that was my vote, though I could go Circle just as easily. I'm really just going mostly by looks of the models at the moment as I am getting the book later this week.

It's really a tough call, and I suspect that reading up on the fluff is going to be a deciding factor. Rules won't matter as much to me, as long as the combinations of animus' and models are fun and challenging.

Trolls call to me because of their association with orcs in my mind, but Circle, with the druids and dogs and werewolves... tough call.

I'd be all over the Trollbloods. Great fluff and concept. For some reason I just can't get past their chins. I don't like the big chin look.

Just a personal problem I guess. ;-)

I like Trolls in terms of the look of the minis but I really do like the way the Circle play. Kaya has some really interesting combos and movement/attack potential

Had to go with the Skorne purely for appearances with the Trolls coming in a close second.

Trolls and the Circle both look awesome.  I would definately enjoy painting some Trollkin or Wolves.  Unfortunately I'm a poor college student.

A poor college student...with loans!

Oh no...I'm trying to avoid the loans as long as possible.  That could be bad news.  Debt scares me.

But I see what you're saying.

Yeah. Don't do it

I thought it was going to be the legion, but the models just aren't doing it for me. So far I like the Circle the best. Wolves are fun and their infantry look awesome. Plus their caster girl is hot.

Thanks Malf.  You give good advice, when you're not trying to bring poor college students like me over to the dark side of Warmachine and financial disaster.

That's why you're an RA, though, right? You buy the alcohol then sell the alcohol?

Don't do it.

No no...I'm an RA to promote a residence hall environment that is safe and conducive to learning.

The free room and board is a nice perk.

I don't have Skorne but damn they look cool! I would have gotten them if not for Circle. But I gotta have speeeeeeeeeeeeeeed!

<---- See the pic? Trolls.

I like the models best from the trolls...plus their backstory is cool, and they have some "comical" models as well. Always been a sucker for the slightly goofy.

Skorne, based on the looks of the figs. When I saw pics of the battle box I knew I have to get those figs just to paint em.

Circle for me. I like the werewolf type beasties they have. And Kaya is HAWT

i like trolls, the look of the models and the fluff appeal to me.
circle was a close second.

i liked the warbeasts for skorne, but i hate the infantry, the faces on most of them are ugly to me.

and i just flat out dislike pretty much all of legion

Skorne- 'cause they look awesome and slamming rules!

Speaking of Skorne... is it just me or do they resemble some of the Yuuzhan Vong?

"Circle for me. I like the werewolf type beasties they have. And Kaya is HAWT "

This and I like the theme of druids making stonehenge get up and squish you.

Skorne theme and fluff are second, some of the models are great, although they are all hard to put together.
