What’s coming up?
Cryx Dread Armada FronTier continues
Cryx’s naval campaign continues as the Dread Armada FronTier sails into week two, giving you 8 more days to bag the full army bundle at an exclusive (and truly pirate-worthy) FronTier discount!
The FronTier ends on October 29, taking the bundle with it.
Between now and then, we’ve got an absolute treasure trove of tactical tips and army lists to share with you in the FronTier updates, direct from the Warmachine dev team.
Today’s update hones in on Aiakos, Scourge of the Black Seas and warcaster for the Reaver Cutthroats Command Set. Catch it later today over on FronTiers.
New app version release
We’ve been working behind-the-scenes on a big app update including bug fixes, general clean up, and quality-of-life improvements.
This includes a major fix for the “Startup Failed” bug that’s been preventing some folks from using the app. Otherwise, it’s a bunch of little improvements that add up to a lot.
Some highlights include the addition of single button damage tracking (where you’ll be able to tap the heart to fill the bar) and the introduction of a brand new bug reporting form which you can access through the app menu, to make it even easier for us to track and resolve issues.
Pending iOS and Android store approval, we should see the update green lit for launch in the next couple of days. Please note this is a whole new version release, not a data release, so you’ll need to fully update your app when it lands.
Monday October 26
Warmachine 3D live preview – November Tribe drop
Join us on YouTube for a live preview of next month’s STL drop!
Find out what goodies (or baddies, depending on your perspective) Tribe subscribers will be getting in November, and get the first look at some new model rules while we’re at it…
Tuesday October 27
First Menoth release – Defenders of the Flame Command Set
All those faithful who’ve been patiently awaiting salvation can rejoice, because Defenders of the Flame releases next Tuesday!
Accompanied by the Revenger and Crusader warjacks, also releasing Tuesday, this blessed drop heralds a blazing new age (if Feora has anything to say about it). We can’t wait to see all your paint schemes and battle reports!
If you picked up the army bundle from warmachine.gg, you’ll also be receiving the exclusive Four Gifts cards in the Classic edition colourway.
Refresh yourself on Defenders of the Flame rules to get ready for their arrival.
Last chance for Fanevania Ashmael MiniCrate
Every month, MiniCrate brings you a new alternate sculpt: a Warmachine character that's been reimagined, produced in a single limited run, and fully playable in your army.
Ashmael went full vampire in the October MiniCrate, and what better way to celebrate the spooky season?
You’ve got until October 27 to grab this limited edition warcaster variant before he disappears into a cloud of bats. We didn’t think Fane could get any more extra after the Warmachine 3D extreme variants dropped, but alas…
Wednesday October 28
New MiniCrate – Llaelese Liaison Locke
Every month, MiniCrate brings you a new alternate sculpt: a Warmachine character that's been reimagined, produced in a single limited run, and fully playable in your army.
Available from October 28, the Llaelese Liaison Locke variant (try saying that five times fast) represents Locke’s time spent travelling between Ord and Llael following the Infernal War, and her role as a secret observer for the Convergence of Cyriss while serving the Crucible Guard.
Locke sees her work as a form of devotion to her goddess, Cyriss. She’s careful to redirect the Guard away from Convergence holdings in Llael to protect her erstwhile allies.
So far, she’s been spared the choice between her two loyalties, finding ways to achieve the Crucible Guard’s goals while also serving her faith. Whether this remains possible in future is yet to be seen.
Lock & Load US is fast approaching
If you’ve not got your badge yet, there’s still time to grab yours and join us from November 6-8 for the US’s biggest weekend of Warmachine!
