Privateer Press publishes the tabletop miniatures game known as War machine --steam-powered miniatures combat--. In this game, players assume the role of an elite soldier-sorcerer, referred to as a war caster. Although a war caster and their army constitute a formidable force on the battlefield, the true strength of a war caster lies in their ability to magically control and coordinate the actions of their mighty war jacks -- steam-powered combat automatons that represent the pinnacle of military might in the Iron Kingdoms.
Players take on the role of powerful War casters, leading their titanic forces into battle. Their armies will comprise a mix of Infantry and Mighty Combat Automatons (War jacks). The Retribution of Scyrah, an Elven religious militant sect, believes that humanity's use of magic is responsible for the dying state of their gods.
Enthusiasts of the game collect, assemble, and paint fantastically detailed models representing the varied warriors, machines, and creatures in their armies. WARMACHINE is fully compatible with its feral twin, the monstrous miniatures combat game of HORDES.
The game's mechanics revolve around the strategic deployment and coordination of these steam-powered war machines and infantry units. Players must carefully maneuver their forces, utilizing the unique abilities and strengths of each unit, to outmaneuver and overwhelm their opponent. The war caster's mastery of magic plays a crucial role, as they can influence the battlefield, debuff enemy units, and empower their own forces with devastating spells and abilities.
The Iron Kingdoms, the setting of WARMACHINE, is a richly detailed world filled with political intrigue, racial tensions, and technological wonders. Players immerse themselves in this dynamic setting, aligning with various factions and vying for control over the region's resources and strategic locations.
The game's emphasis on combined-arms tactics, the interplay between magic and machines, and the depth of its faction-based gameplay have earned WARMACHINE a dedicated following among miniature wargaming enthusiasts. The game's continued expansion and support from Privateer Press have kept it fresh and engaging, with new units, storylines, and gameplay mechanics regularly introduced to the ever-evolving WARMACHINE universe.
