[Battle Report] Fane of Nyrro (Hysene) vs. Thornfall Alliance (Helga) | 50pt Battle Report: https://youtu.be/X6uvThukRoY

Ladies and gentlemen, brace yourselves for the mud fight of the century! In one corner, Helga the Conqueror brings the full fury of the Farrow—and in the other, Hysene steps from the shadows to prove that speed, hunger, and cruelty can bring even the biggest hog crashing down. Tonight we prepare for tomorrow, the mud flies, the slop spills, and only one walks away from the battlefield...

As the title suggests, a quick YouTube rant about the fixed load outs in the new Fane of Nyrro boxes. Maybe I'm crazy, but it still just hits me the wrong way. Enjoy a spicy Thursday!

Greetings, all! Let’s start the week off with guns a-Blaizing.

We’ve got a double-decker serving of lore rants for you today.

Constance Blaize’s new lore dropped yesterday, and I have… opinions.

Every Village Needs a Bicycle:
https://youtube.com/shorts/mUCgR22kuqo?feature=share

And in case you missed yesterday’s equally measured and reasonable opinions on Nyrro:

Vorsalys Is Weak Sauce:

Be sure to keep checking out the channel later on this week, because—believe it or not—the takes are only getting hotter.

Speaking of hot things on the menu, we’ll also have another battle report, Fane vs. Farrow: Conqueror? I Hardly Know Her! 

Guessing the casters is an exercise left to the reader’s imagination…

Rounding out the end of the Bandit Blitz, we are finishing up the final tactics short and then everything will be the lore story behind Jakes and Bandit. I'll update the links here as they post.

Even if you're not a Gravediggers player (or maybe you're just Grave-Curious), we have a little bit of everything for folks here. It turns out Bandit and Jakes have quite the history, and it's pretty interesting lore well worth checking out.

Just links to any content that folks may find interesting or may have missed this week. Finally got the Fane of Nyrro into a battle report, I strongly encourage folks check it out, it really showcases the nonsense that Hysene can get up to!

Join our battle report pre-game for Hysene vs Oriax as we discuss lists, tactics, and matchups. And don't forget to check out the actual game, available tomorrow!

I know everyone says that their games are "can't miss" but I really do feel like this game helps drive home how well Hysene can leverage Shadow Shift to bully opponents...even at her own risk!

Just a quick short on the new rules for Constance and Gallant. Rather than just read them to you all, I wanted to do a quick breakdown with how they fit with the game design trends we started seeing with the January update and the mid-year balance patch.

EDIT: Self own: got a bit too excited mis-reading Aegis as ranged not magical.

After a few games against Fane, I share a few thoughts and things to be aware of as you experience them for the first time. Added bonus: actual photos with painted models! All the photos are stills from battle reports that we will be posting in the coming weeks, but don't worry, no spoilers!

With Fane of Nyrro upon us, we wanted to do some lore shorts, but quickly realized that you really need broader context to make sense of a lot of the new characters. So join us as we step through a high level overview of the entire history of the nation of Ios in Warmachine. This will cover everything from the creation of elves to the emergence of the Empire of the Eternal Dusk and the Fane of Nyrro in the modern setting. We try to break the longer narrative into smaller, bite sized pieces fit for an Eldritch!
