Correct, you are hiring within your own faction so the model isn't being taken as a Mercenary.
I was reading through that this morning and thought that it wouldn't be possible to take the Freikorps due to their Freikorps Mercenary rule.
Bearing in mind that the Viks can *only* hire mercs, it seems strange to justify taking them by saying you're not taking them as a merc...
I may well be wrong, but that was my first impression.

On rereading, I see what you mean, had missed the max 2 in play at a time. Ah well, back to the drawing board then.
Cheers for pointing out my stupidity

I'd argue that any further summoned Viktorias do not get the paired swords - by RAW as I see it they will all be sword/gun. If you lose your swordmistress, she's gone for good.
On the plus side, I can potentially start the game with 2 x viktoria and 4 x ronin at the table at 25ss and end up with 5 viktorias on the table Sounds like it might be fun!

I think I see where MrNybbles is coming from now - Vik can only hire models with the merc characteristic, where as the Freikorps Merc special rule states it only applies when you hire models *as* mercenaries.
It's pretty vague, and there's some assumption involved that this in fact relates to out of Faction models hired by the crew, but I see where he's coming from now.
