which rules do you prefer to use?

[btk_kilroy_winterhart]

So which rules set to you like to use mk1 or mk2? Just curious.

[Trygle]

MK1 for Rhyas

MK2 for everything else.

You ask this like there is a choice involved. And if there was a choice, the answer would be completely obvious anyway.

[Lachlan the Mad]

A question straight from 2010, I see...

[Lord Sessadore]

People still play Mk1? Not trying to be rude or anything, but this would be the first I've heard of it.

[nicholas_342]

Actually we've talked a bit at our lgs about giving it a go just for kicks. Most of us didn't actually play mk1 so it would be something new for a day and then back to mk2.

[jandrese]

There are more and more models out now that just don't have a Mk I version though. You could try to convert them, but they're just going to be Mk II models in Mk I, underpowered compared to everything else.

[Rogue Sun]

Go ahead and play Bane Knights in MKI. Let me know how that works out for you and your opponent.

I <3 Mk2 because it brought me Vindictus, eGrissel,
and SPD 6 Choir.

[PG_Alviaran]

MK2. The system is just so much more streamlined and balanced.

And forget MK1 Bane Knights. Those were just frustrating. Imagine MK1 eVlad. Imagine if he got Eliminators.

I have thought about running a just for kicks kind of event where people can use MK1 cards (with MK2 point values). The problem is, most of my guys have only been playing since MK2. I should see if it can be swung as a midnight event at a con.

Well, if you played ALL the stats they'd be drastically undercosted, IMO.

Slayers are awesome when you get them for 6 pts a pop in 750 pt games.

Right up till You see pHaley and realise they're never gonna get to do anything.

[TheLoki]

Mk2 is alot more balanced but Mk1 was more fun imo. Don't get me wrong i LOVE this game. But i signed up for the crazy mk1 stuff. MK2 is really good but they are homogenizing WAY to much.

[wargrim]

I like power attacks, so MK2 for me. MK1 had so many penalty's to power attacks, besides the occasional slam I never saw one made. And some things were just stupid, like Skarres red button of auto-win.
And I play trollbloods, so it's nice to do things outside the brick and without for fitting anything to do something other.

[TheLoki]

Mk1 was extremely broken in many MANY respects. I'm just hoping years from now when mk3 comes out (or even mk2 remix) they find a happy balance. TBH my only real gripe overall with MK2 is the sharing of signature spells and abilities.

[PG_Keravin]

Mark 2 because the balance makes it more fun for everyone.

[xeletor]

Mark 2 for sure. Though I would like to once try and include some spells that were lost in the transition from MK1. Like Sandblast on Amon. Any other cool spells that you miss?

[PG_TheEmu]

Locally, we've talked multiple times about playing MKI evening/tournament or something. Then we remember how good MKII is compared to MKI (which was still awesome), we laugh it off and proceed to enjoy MKII.

[PG_TimVanBoening]

I MUCH MUCH prefer MKII. The game was fun in MKI, and I enjoyed demoing it for people, but the overall enjoyment grew exponentially with MKII.

I would say I do miss some abilities, mostly the Bloodgorgers and Gerlak Slaughterborn, since those are the ones I was most let down about.

And Shadow Wings. 10 inch teleport on pGaspy? Yes, please!!!

[Lich_Lord_X]

MK1 for Rhyas

MK2 for everything else.

Yup pretty much. She'll never see the table again for me, unfortunately.

[DemonCalibre]

if you told me I would have to play Warmachine MK1 or nothing, I think I would just quit.

I don't even know how i put up with some of the nonsence in MK1
