Post by: idolminds on Sunday, February 18, 2007, 03:51:33 PM
Warmachine (http://privateerpress.com/WARMACHINE/default.php), and all the guys below are from the Mercenaries faction.

Pirate dudes!

Damn, those are cool as all hell. Still, Warhammer 40k if not, is just as awesome.

I was thinking about picking this up again as a hobby, I feel I need to focus on something other than work, feeding myself and gaming. But I wasn't sure if I wanted to head back into 40K or not, but then I saw these! I could see myself painting these!

Pretty fun.  My problem is I'm just too stuck on 40k to care about anything else.  But there are a ton of miniature games that aren't Games Workshop, and most of them do have pretty cool minis.

I have found out that there are no places that offer free catalogs to look at all this shit. I could look online...but thats boring. Bah!

No such thing as a free catalog with this stuff, heh.

Yeah. The Warhammer one is pretty expensive. To it's credit, it's one of the nicest catalogs out there and actually shows off not only the finished model, but also the individual bits and pieces in the kit so you can look around if you might just want to order just those or get an idea what you might be in for if you want the kit.

Warmachine though.... I haven't actually looked too much into the details, but I understand that it's basically become the rival to Warhammer these days so you get your little fanboy wars going. Some of the Warjacks (I think those are the names for the mechish things) are kinda cool though. I really like that little one you posted a picture of, for example.

I really like the designs.  I think my issue with the stuff is that it's just a little bit too cartoonish for me.  I like some of the goofier stuff when it comes to all this, but this is just a bit too Warcrafty.  The Warjacks are indeed cool, though.
