Pensfan Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Now, let me first preference this a bit... our group has only played a handful of games at best. Most of us have played less than a dozen games, while I have played 3 real games and a couple demos myself. However... in those three games, my unabashed All-Star has been Papa Loco beyond the shadow of a doubt. Has he survived any of the games? Hell no.. Has he taken out 2-3 x his SS cost in enemy models? At least... every time! I have heard a lot of people talking about removing PL for other options in a Perdita led crew recently so I was a little hesitant about him at first. However now after using him a bit on the actual table, he is quickly becoming an "auto-include" in any Perdita crew, and a pretty damn good option in any Guild crew.

EricJ Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Loco is a model that can not be ignored, that's for sure, when he dies he just does TOO much damage to everything around him, your opponent can't afford to let him get in the middle of a bunch of their models.

Pensfan Posted August 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Exactly... I have been advancing him under cover to make sure he hits the groups largely unscathed. The best part too is that if they start focusing on him, that leaves the rest of my army to go after their priority targets. Now I admit we are all new, so this is going to change some, but right off the bat I am really liking the tools he brings to the table. Especially the psychology of him.

nilus Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 I love Papa Loco, I just suggest in a lower Stone game to remove him because in low point games it can be hard to secure objectives and having a walking bomb makes that even harder. That being said last night he managed to do a lot of damage. I think he managed to take out 5 or 6 models on the table. Only 2 of them were friendly.

AoM Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Loco!!!!!!!!! I don't leave home without him. Hell, I'd rather drop Nino or Fransisco, personally. Loco and Santiago are my Ortega auto-includes. You can't ignore Loco, and when all else fails, just run him into the thick of things and let him go out in a blaze of glory. He doesn't have enough of a brain left to remember anyway, as evidenced by the plate in his head. Don't let anyone knock Loco from just theory-faux. He's just so much fun on the table, and he can totally throw off whatever your opponent has planned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wulfen Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 I'm not a huge fan of Papa myself, and my last game I removed him in favor of models that could actually help with objectives, while not having to worry about having my own crew near him. The Convict Gunslinger is a much better fit for me, since not only is he a good shot, but he can also really mesh well with the Ortega crew's special abilities and triggers. Papa is fun, and he'll see the table, but not as often as the other Ortegas. Personally I'm a huge fan of Nino. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pensfan Posted August 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 I love Nino, Santiago is great, and of course Perdita is oh so dreamy... <3 However Papa Loco is my auto-include with Perdita at this point. He is so deadly that your opponents are forced to deal with him or be blown up by him. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AoM Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Poor Francisco is crying himself to sleep again tonight. As he should. That's what happens to people who steal hats from the Three Amigos! Olé! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilus Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 As he should. That's what happens to people who steal hats from the Three Amigos! Olé! He didn't steal it. He bought it at Chevy Chases yard sale. That guy is hurting for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capcap Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Wow sounds great. I can't wait till I see him on the table! Hopefully in two weeks my store will get a restock! : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aproximo Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 So the whole crew is auto include except Francisco and even he has fans... Dang I wish my rule book would arrive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
