Community: manowars suck, no buy. PP: but she is a woman, buy now. Badum tssh. Id say like 20% of Khador Joined purely because they liked MOWs. The Shocktroopers, and the Drahkun don't suck. So just improve the rest and Im sure money will rain like on a japanese game show.

Sorsch-O-War and MoW themes forthcoming. I'm looking forward to it.
Yes, Sorscha traditionally has more synergy with the Winter Guard, but if I'm not mistaken, the third iterations of most casters are sometimes connected to different units, no?

All this time my money was on Harkevich 2 being the Man-o-Warcaster. I'm pleasantly surprised.

Bonus points if she also becomes a cav caster, becoming Girl!Drakhun and ebing both a MoW, fast, and face-beating.
Good thing she figured out her DEF wasn't keeping her alive anymore in the new edition. Genre-savvy she is!

This completely defeats the close ship PP sells between her and the Winter Guard not to mention her gameplay style as a warcaster. To be fair, she's the poster child for the Fifth Border Legion, and they also have MoW. The WG association was due to the second version of her.

It also looks like there is the MOW Battle Engine being teased in the bottom corner also. It looks like it will also have horses....

The thing that has me most interested (outside of my girl MOW Sorscha) is the MOW Standard bearer. It looks to be a super cool model and would be an interesting attachment. Or could it be more universal than a shock trooper attachment, and actually effect the other MOW's? I don't know enough about other armies in the game to know if that would be unique or is already replicated somewhere else. That would be pretty cool but he'd probably need a boatload of special rules to actually be effective.

Welp, I'll get the salt, because I'm eating my foot.

As I see it, other incarnations of casters do not mean completely they're changing or evolving. It can also mean they're just adapting to different scenarios. Vlad will still fight on foot if it is required, sorscha will leave the heavy armor at home if it's appropriate and strakhov or zerkova will leave the retinue at home if they want. So sorscha in heavy armor did not forget how to go fast but she is probably in a scenario where more protection is desiderable. Maybe she is stuck in ferocious close quarter combat in Llael.
We will see what it will be.

Winterguard and MoW have been 'close' fluffwise, representing the 'new' arms. You have your regulars supporting and supported by heavily armored elites.
They are close enough together that I can see her going that way.
Though I am mighty interested in how it will play out; as said I am hoping for a horse but I am 99% sure it will be a vain one, but there are plenty of things that can be pretty nice, you might not even have to be afraid she is going to get slow.
I hope we can see some stupidly mobile medium-based action.

What makes people think Sorcha is a Horse Caster?
I'm like 99% sure its our first medium based caster in a while.

MOW are Medium Sized.
That armor looks more slick and elegant then the other MOW armor.
Don't count out her being a mobile caster just yet.
