    Default Where to go next?

    Hi everyone.

    I'm fairly new to Warmachine and Cygnar and I'm looking for some advice on where to go with my army next.

    I currently own 15pts worth, consisting of:

    pStryker
    Ironclad
    Charger
    Lancer
    Black 13th

    I will probably pick up a Squire at some point too.

    I've really enjoyed using pStryker, I like his flexibility as it suits my play style. I prefer to play aggresively but cautiously, I'm always looking to throw the first punch with my army, but I am not afraid of sitting back and letting my opponent come to me should the situation require it.

    I'm also interested in trying out a couple of new casters, I'm particularly interested in "Seige", eCaine, eStryker, pNemo and pHaley.

    Any suggestions for where I should go next?

    Consider to take a unit, like maybe ATGM with the UA, my personal love is for PK's with UA, but not all pick them up (ATGM instead is a must have).

    Defender and Ol Rowdy can be a good pick if you want to take new heavy (Defender is a must in faction), or just the Stormclad for a good heavy beast usually picked up first.

    Squire, JWC, Rhuper Carvolo and Arlan Strangeways are great solos for us.

    Thanks for the response, I'll take a look at them!

    Is there any advice on the casters I'm interested in?

    for the casters youve listed heres how id break them down:
    siege: he's our go to guy for armour breaking (his feat comes to mind) plus he helps control the field with spells like force hammer, rift and foxhole
    Ecaine: as far as im aware one of our top assaination casters along with Estryker his feat is just monsterous when applied to a 'soft target' although he doesnt like giving away his focus so ive normally seen few jacks in his lists normally his army is just a way of helping him get to the enemy caster then feating
    eStryker: as above our premier caster assassin in the right conditions his threat range is incredible along with his overcharge special rule nothing is safe from him he has some pretty awesome spells like deflection, rebuke and positive charge (not entirely sure on this one correct me if im wrong) and his feat also helps your units get up the field quickly to get the first strike
    im not entirely sure how Pnemo/haley work as ive not really seen em in action so best leaving them to other experienced players
    when all else fails. sound the charge!!

    B13 are GREAT but if you wanna be laying on the hurt id suggest Long Gunners and Gun Mages... Thats where i went next with the variant model for pHaley (the one with her holding her spear... looks much better than the other models)

    Next up id suggest squire a journeyman a UA for the gun mages and then start playing around with different Jacks...

    The Defended heavy jack and Hunter Light jacks are GREAT if you like shooting and i would also highly reccomend picking up a few more Chargers a Cyclone and on the infantry front id reccommend some Storm Guard.
