embraCe the PerfeCtion of the maChine

faCtion baCkground

The faithful of Cyriss, the Maiden of Gears, have lived

among the people of western Immoren for centuries,

quietly working to uncover the laws of the universe.

They have long been tolerated as an enigmatic cult of

mathematicians, engineers, and stargazers, but in remote

temples and facilities the inner circle of the faith were

advancing their agenda. There they constructed massive

machines with which they intend to complete their Great

Work and transform the very face of Caen to bring about the

manifestation of their goddess.

Playing the ConvergenCe

A Convergence army operates like a machine: each piece

serves its role, and the parts work together to accomplish a

greater goal. The faction’s pragmatic and calculating nature

plays out in the form of widespread synergy, enhancing

their own abilities and hindering those of enemies.

On the battleield each specialized unit combines with the

others to create a machine of destruction. Reciprocators and

Obstructors lock shields and advance, then slide apart to

allow aggressive Eradicators to charge into enemy lines, all

while Perforators at the rear launch protean javelins.

As the forces of the Convergence enter the Phase of Alignment,

they must march to war against other powers of western

Immoren over sites of geomantic potency. Their leaders and

soldiers have abandoned bodies of lesh to be transformed into

clockwork vessels. Immune to pain or doubt and armed with

advanced weapons, these steel armies possess unlinching

resolve. The clockwork state is itself their afterlife on Caen,

and so they have no fear of death.

Even more than any other WARMACHINE faction, the

warcasters of the Convergence dramatically change the

nature of play. Vectors take on the stats of their warcaster

and gain a ield marshal ability distinct to each character.

The same army seems to transform and become an entirely

diferent machine with each commander, opening up a

wealth of game possibilities.

With so many exciting tactical options and interesting

combinations of abilities to experiment with, the

Convergence of Cyriss ofers plentiful play satisfaction for

any tabletop general. Now ready your machinery, conirm

your calculations, and…

Because the Nine Harmonics of Cyriss proscribe the “false

minds” of warjacks, Convergence warcasters bring complex

vectors to battle. These imposing machines function not

of their own unpredictable imperative but solely as pure

extensions of a warcaster’s formidable will. With an arsenal

centuries in the making, the Convergence of Cyriss is

prepared to carry out the Great Work no matter its cost.

Let none imperil the Great Work!
