I’ve been playing Shae’s tier list for about six months now so I decided to jot down some observations. After coming from the relative simplicity of playing Khador the Privateers really challenged me. I’ve found three things needed to be mastered to get the most out of the Privateers – Synergy, Deployment and Activation order. [...]

I’m trying to get some experience using my Privateers and I thought I’d start out with some small games using Shae. I was playing a 15pt game against Khador on Tuesday and I thought it’d be a good opportunity to try out the following list – Captain Phinneus Shae Freebooter Press Gangers (Leader and 5 [...]

We’ve been treated to some Privateer treats with the previewing of the Shae and Fiona Tiers. Bell of Lost Souls have also previewed the Fiona the Black Tiers here. I haven’t painted Fiona yet, but I’ll have a look at this Tier too. I have a good few more Pirates to paint and painting them [...]

I don’t need to learn the rules, I know them and am an accomplished Warmachine player, but I do [...]

I had a great 750 point game against Phil’s Protectorate of Menoth force recently which I’ll post photos from in the next few days. I wanted a chance to field Epic Irusk as I’ve only had a couple of opportunities to use him before. He is still an excellent troop ‘caster and his abilities are [...]
