Are there any official rules for a 2v2 game?(2 headed dragon?) I'm looking at the warmachine weekend event list and saw it. Does anyone know the turn order or do the 2 people just act as one big list?

I don't think there are any official rules, but I've played quite a lot of 2vs2 games and some changes worked great. - Only one feat per side - Both allied armies neutral to each other (so neither friendly nor enemy) "*" type spells work as Offensive. - Scenarios adjusted for the increased army and table sizes (for example we play 1,5 SR scenario for a table 72" long and increase CP limit to win. For example in mk2 we played to 10CPs) - A player who has lost his warcaster/warlock continues playing (unless a side loses all of their warcasters/warlocks as per normal rules)

We have done a different take on 2v2 to make it truly ridiculous and broken. Its basically, you and your partner take your turns together like a normal single army would activate, you both deciding when things activate on your turn. All mention of friendly faction is removed and just made friendly...hahaha. That makes for some really interesting and overpowered combos. Of course that is just for funsies.

How many points do you normally play? In my head a smaller point game would be better to not have boring long turns.

Now it's always at least 2 warcaters, 150pts per side (standard 75pt army per player) The turns are a longer than normal, but absolutely not boring. The game is finished in 4 hours which is still a lot less than our big gamse of WH or WH40K used to take.

We did smaller points, I think it was 25 pt armies for each partner (so about 50-60 pts total with warbeast/jack points) when we did this.

It sounds like the new Unbound rules might work or be a good place to start - discussed in the Insider here. Each player could have a 50pt detachment (+ jack/beast points), with alternating detachment activations. The Insider even mentions rules for 3 and 4 player games.
