Can't decide between Hordes Trollbloods and Rhulic Mercs

Hey all,
I've played Warmachine/Hordes since it's inception, but when I got divorced the wife claimed my minis and then ebayed them (heartless I know). Anyway, I have decided to jump back into it with the new Mk 2 rules. Just wondering what you guys thought, Dwarves? or Trollbloods? Doesn't seem like too many folks on these boards were playing. Also kinda wondering why not? I personally find it a different flavor from 40K but still a good game.

I play Retribution of Scyrah. I hear others are getting into it but this is the time of year on 40k so I'm not surprised that few have bothered yet.

I know little about Hordes, well I know enough, but not enough to be too helpful ;p However Rhulic mercenary isn't too bad. But your faction is Mercenary as there isn't a dwarven faction per say.

I guess I'm just not sure what you are looking for in the way of help.

well, to be honest I was just hoping to hear things like "another troll player? groan" or "not more Seaforge commision" I was playing at GameCafe pretty steadily last summer, before I took to the high seas. Mostly the players there seemed to be Cryx and Khador. I just figured that there are enough different factions that I ddint' need to be doubling up. I'll probably go Seaforge just cause I like the way the Rhulic jacks look. But trollkin have some nice models too. And I love throwing things, dire trolls are made for that. Plus every model having a tough roll makes for a stick around army.

Yeah. I dont play at GameCafe or make it up there for 40k as often as I would like. From what I understand this area does have a lot of Cryx/Khador love.

Personally I only started playing after they introduced the Angry Elves. Mostly cause I actually LIKE their models (though as with all PP mini's the weapons look oh so dumb)
