War machine --steam-powered miniatures combat-- is a table-top miniatures game published by Privateer Press. Players take on the role of an elite soldier-sorcerer known as a war caster. While a war caster and his army is a formidable force on the battlefield, a war caster's true strength is in their ability to magically control and coordinate the actions of their mighty war jacks steam-powered combat automatons that represent the pinnacle of military might in the Iron Kingdoms.

- Others are portrayed as stalwart revolutionaries; Regardless, each Merc has a goal that makes them willing to accept anyone's coin
- Each Mercenary will only work with a few specific factions but can add power or fill in gaps and weak points that each of the factions have
- Mercenary War casters encourage a tactical mindset by offering many combinations of abilities with other mercs and with the other faction's war casters
- WARMACHINE is fully compatible with its feral twin, the monstrous miniatures combat game of HORDES
