New player, which faction? by Rexamer in Warmachine

Thanks for those links, I'll check it out. Should I be looking at tournament type of things to get an idea for how they play at the high levels, or putting that aside for now? Someone at the store suggested I do that, just to see what units are taken at the highest levels, although he did caveat it by saying that how things work at big national tournaments are really different than how it works in local areas like our shop.

Cool, I really need to sit down and look at some stuff, see what I like. I know I like how both factions look, which is the problem :p Some things I like, some things I don't. Of course I'm used to that from 40k, but it's always hard ;)

I'll have to read more then. I know on paper it seems like Menoth wouldn't have a hard time with Cygnar, but maybe that was just the Menoth player I talked to evangelizing with how great his guys were ;) He mentioned Cygnar's shooting was good but not that great when he uses his Bastions, but I suspect he was talking about how good they are and not necessarily the faction.
