Warmachine Prime Mk II (2010)

About this game

Step into a world forged of iron and tempered by war. In WARMACHINE, the very earth shakes during fierce confrontations where six-ton constructs of iron and steel slam into each other with the devastating force of a locomotive, where lead-spewing cannons chew through armor plating as easily as flesh, and where bold heroes set the battlefield ablaze with a tempest of arcane magic as they forge the fates of their unyielding nations in the fires of destruction. WARMACHINE Prime: Mk II is the core rulebook for the second edition of the award-winning tabletop wargame WARMACHINE. The popular game now plays faster, easier, and more aggressively than ever before. Prime Mk II includes the rules for the game; detailed profiles and game stats for powerful characters, warjacks, and soldiers; histories of the nations of the Iron Kingdoms; and an instructional hobby guide that will help bring your tabletop battlefield to life.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 3.7/5 this is a heavy game — read the rulebook before people arrive.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
