Warjacks

The spearhead of the WARMACHINE fighting force is the warjack. Outfitted with an array of wicked weaponry, these imposing constructs of steel and iron are brought to life through a fusion of steam power and magic and controlled with deadly precision by the warcaster.

A warcaster is in constant telepathic contact with her warjacks and can channel her focus through a warjack to boost the machine’s combat abilities and enable it to execute devastating power attacks.

The relationship between warcasters and their warjacks is as close as the kinship between any brothers in arms. Over time, a warjack gains experience and may bond with its warcaster, taking on unique personality characteristics and developing new aptitudes.

# Gameplay

Warjacks are the main source of an army's combat strength. They come with a number of elements. Each Warjack has a weapon, melee or ranged or both. Some jacks also have special abilities such as the Ironclad's Tremor ability, which knocks down units near it.

A Warjack can purchase extra attacks and boost attacks with focus they receive from the Warcaster. Without focus they can only advance and perform one ranged or melee attack with each weapon. Warjacks can only Charge or Run if they have focus points.

Warjacks must also be in the Warcaster's Control Area in order to receive focus points. Each warjack can have up to a maximum of three focus points at once.

Additionally, Warjacks have access to Power Attacks. Only one power attack can be performed once per turn at the cost of 1 focus point. Warjacks can Slam, Push, or Headbutt other units with varying rules on how these function on different sized units.
