Dn't have the book with me, but isn't Nix height 1? meaning Hamilin the rat catcher can always hire him?

Thats strange, I've found the Acolye very useful for dealing with corpse counters that my opponents Resurrectionests keep producing and using to get back everything I kill. Sure, he is in trouble if left unsupported, but I find with my marcus list, I don't need to leave him unsupported for very long at all. I might not use him in all lists, but I struggle facing the continual hordes of undead someone like nicodem can put down if I don't have a way of getting rid of the corpse counters. If you place him in the area you want the figth to be, and can get your crew in that area at the right time, I think he can be useful. And they need to send people to walk up to him to deal with him, they can't just throw a few shots your way whilst waiting for the rest of the crew to join. Don't use him until its worth him leavign his cover is my advice.

Try and bring her out on your opponents last attack when possible. She is pretty durable, but better to be safe than sorry.

Also it contains 3 mercenaries, so not a legal crew

I think you still have to pay merc dues and are limited to only 2 mercenaries. After all you are still hiring a Guild crew, it is just the Victoria special rule that lets her join the guild crew, she doesn't have any rules to change what can be hired in a crew containing her. I know that this is still being discussed, but this is the way I think it is going to fall. But I think that you are right, she would make a good second master to Perdita, being two melee beatsticks supporting guild guns. Phil

Yes. Unless an action states it is only once per activation, or once per turn, you may continue to do it as long as you have action points. Phil

Marcus lists typically include a lot of speed, but nothing that can take a hit. So make sure when you hit something, hit it hard and make sure it says hit. (although I've yet to play with waldigiests as they haven't arrived in my FLGS yet) I'm not convinced on myranda yet. Her animal insticts just doesn't seem useful enough for me. I make it resticted to Constict,devour, roar or uproot as spells she can cast with it (well and primal flame but she can do that anyway). Her shape change is handy, but she is rarely as good as just having the actual creature would have been. Phil

I hope you mean the other one... :doh: Typical they changed the ronin just after he used them to beat us. Phil
