    Personally, I'd like to see Circle + anything. Circle's battlebox needs revision badly, and this would be a good time to do it. Circle v Legion is iconic though, so I went with that.

    Indeed. One must not forget the Treeman Hammerhead with his Linear Branchcannon.

    Anything without trolls. I am a regular wm player that never found a good springboard into hordes and I would love a starter to give me a more economical taste of the game.
    The problem is that i loathe trollbloods. I actually resent that those goofy mongrels even exist in a compatible game to what I play already. There is no way I would buy a starter set that is half trolls. Even splitting it would be unappealing since then I'd have to play against trolls.

    Re: wishlisting, what do you think should be in a Hordes 2player starter box?

    Been intrigued by both Legion and Circle for a while, but am still building up my Warmachine armies, so a starter with the two of them in might finally tempt me over to the feral side.

    Preferably skorne and trollbloods. Of the hordes army, those 2 would be the factions I'd be most interested in starting, however, if they did come out with a start box, my money would be legion and circle (that just comes out as most likely starter set).

    Fennblades would disagree. Troll infantry likely to be a bigger seller as well.

    I voted circle and legion which at a guess is more than likely

    Just out of curiosity, why does everyone feel Circle and Legion are the most likely combination?

    Re: wishlisting, what do you think should be in a Hordes 2player starter box?

    I thin just hoping. I was voting trollbloods and skorne since they seem to have a simpler learning curve than either the legion or the circle.

    I would have to admit, plastic champions and cerati would be amazing.

    that and they're on the cover of the book.

    Legion are very popular and many starter boxes include one popular army, and circle because many starter boxes include a synergy army (not that other armies can't do a synergy army). Maybe thats my personal perception, it may be different for others.

    Re: wishlisting, what do you think should be in a Hordes 2player starter box?

    I voted Skorne vs. Legion as I think that they have the best matchup. But if they mix up the starters abit and give the Trolls a heavy, then Skorne vs. Trolls would probably be my preferance.

    Trollbloods vs Skorne or Everblight!

While tournament players are generally happy to let people play however they want, it is the fluff side that seems to feel they need to tell others how they have to enjoy the game.

    Re: wishlisting, what do you think should be in a Hordes 2player starter box?

    I voted Skorne vrs Trollbloods. I'd like to see a mix up with the beasts by including 1 heavy & 1 light each, An Impaler/Mauler for Trolls with Savage/Titan for Skorne with Plastic Champions & Plastic Centrati.

    Proberbly end up being Legion plus Circle though. Plastic Skinwalkers & Warmongers would be nice.

    Re: wishlisting, what do you think should be in a Hordes 2player starter box?

    Just a thoght, but I noticed a trend where people tend to ask either for Trolls and Skorne or for Circle and Everblight. Now, perhaps I got this wrong in the first place, but I kind of "learned" from this forum and other places that Trolls and Skorne were the two "massive" hordes armies and Circle and Legion were the two "tricky" hordes armies.

    Or to put it in other words: Half the people are asking for the two powerhouse armies and the other half are asking for the two finesse armies. Am I just imagining this?

    Maybe. I've always seen Troolbloods played as a very finesse army, though that may be our local players.

    yeah, that sounds about right. if you went by the plastics it would probably be trolls vs legion. With both battleboxes with fennblades and warspears.
