I've arranged to play Dreadball with Justin and Big Rob this week Ross, but if they're happy to carry on without me then I'm sure I could help you out with a Warmachine demo.
If someone could give me my first Necromunda campaign game that would be a big help?

I can give you a game with my second gang the war zone brawlers, works out well for me too as i'm on a work trail this week and wont have the time to pack a 40k army
Up for anything fow, althought mainly looking for a tourney game.
Had a look at the War Machine factions and I am entirely none the wiser! I did see mention of pirates quite a bit - is that hordes or not? I have a load of pirates so would any of those be any use, or am I deluding myself?

Simon and Justin will probably explain this better, but loosely...
Pirates (the
Talion Charter) are a "contract" within the Mercenaries faction for Warmachine, hopefully explained better than I could manage here:
http://battlecollege.wikispaces.com/mkiiMercenaries
It's tempting to call them a theme, but that conflicts with "theme-lists" and would just create confusion. So forget I mentioned it.
There's a useful article on the PP site that relates to building a Mercenary force:
http://privateerpress.com/files/MercContracts-1_0.pdf
Current Warmachine factions are Cygnar, Khador, Menoth, Cryx, Retribution (of Scyrah) and Mercenaries, all of which can also be played against any of the Hordes factions (Trollbloods, Circle Orboros, Skorne, Legion of Everblight) if you're a sucker for punishment.
Proxying is always an option, but characterisation is very strong in the game so you'd probably want to bulk out your force from the excellent (I'm not on commission) range from PP.
Hopefully that is of some help (and mostly accurate).
^ What Stuart said basically. The Pirates are a small faction within a faction and are sadly a bit under represented at present.
I'll bring along a handful of starter battlegroups just so we can play and you can get the rules down, then you could look at which faction to play should you decide you enjoy the game
OK. There was one religious fanatic group with knights and the like - They probably fit the bill in that case.
