So yesterday it came out in Privateer Press's release schedule that Hordes would be getting epic warlocks. Trolls will be getting an epic Madrak. I am pretty excited about this, but I am not sure why. Epic warlocks and warcasters must be fielded in 750 point games and I can count the number of 750 point games we have played here locally on my one hand. It is my goal to get more players playing 750 point games because I think it opens up a whole new world of warmachine (and soon, hordes). Anyway hopefully by this August, when Epic Madrak will be released, we will be playing a lot more 750 point games.

Also No Quarter #18 was released yesterday and I have to say that the rules for the new Cryx dragoon are simply awesome. He gives all soulhunters (Cryx cavalry) similar abilities to the Hordes light cavalry: they can't make ride-by attacks but they can move their speed in inches after making a combat action and cannot be targeted by free strikes. This actually makes them playable with casters other then Terminus and Epic Skarre, however I would have preferred to just see them errata'ed to this instead of having to take another model to get them to work. I really like the Cryx cavalry in theory. In theory they should be able to get soul tokens then use them to become more deadly but in practice they charge in and get soul tokens then die the next round before they can use them. With Darragh Wrathe on the field they can get back out of combat and hide from retribution, which makes them much more useful. I foresee me playing a lot more soulhunters after his release.
