Hello! I'm a 40ker who is looking to switch over to Warmachine. I got the Cryx and Menoth starter boxes in my swag bag at Adepticon last year, but I wouldn't necessarily have to limit myself to those two options. I know nothing about the setting or army types so any advice is greatly appreciated.
Here's what I'm looking for:
1. Low model count. The lower the better. I often spend 20+ hours converting and painting a model and it would be nice to have an army finished before 2014.
2. Lots of plastic/resin models.
3. At least moderately easy to learn
4. Prefer shooting and magic-tricksy-stuff over close combat
Just FYI, in 40k, I play Tzeentch Chaos Daemons because I like their deployment method, their flexibility, and it gives me lots of opportunities for conversion and custom models.
Thanks!
