Warmachine Unboxing: Cygnar Trenchers Theme Force
November 14, 2017 by johnlyons
This week we have an epic build for John as he and Justin unbox the Cygnar Trenchers Theme Force set for Warmachine from Privateer Press.
This set contains twenty models in total consisting of...
- Commander Anson Hitch
- Patrol Dog
- Trencher Cannon Crew
- 2x Trencher Infantry Rifle Grenadiers
- Trencher Infantry Officer & Sniper
- Trencher Infantry Unit
- Trencher Master Gunner
...giving you plenty of options which can then be mixed in with the Starter Force in order to create a solid army list.
The guys talk about the stats and abilities of the Trenchers and then John introduces his pick of additional units he would add to create a 50 point list.
Do you like John's picks or would you go a different direction?
I would call the dog Sergeant Stubby.
Llael is clearly the valleys of Wales populated by the French! I always figured Cygnar was predominately American-influenced, while Ord was a mix of Spain and England crammed into a region that was basically Plymouth through to Dartmoor 😀
I think Commander Hitch may be a Khadoran spy.
fabulous looking figures love the commander as well.
Llael’s main group, the Ryn, are very French with some Renaissance Italian thrown in for good measure. They also have a large minority of Umbreans who had broken off from Khador(the warcaster Vlad is the Grand Prince of Umbrey) way before the events of the Warmachine games and are more Eastern European in flavor.
Cygnar to me is very much a mix of America and England(especially the Caspians), with some of its other ethnic groups feeling a little more continental Europe(Midlunders always felt kind of dour German-esque and Thurians more Irish)
