Interesting read thank you
Love the viks, played them in to 3 tournaments exclusively, won 8 drew 1. So versatile as I seem to play them completely different
Overlooked model is the malifaux child, copying students fast can end up with us having 5 3AP models
General Vik tactics were to keep it simple, hold a bit turn 1 loading up on fast and focus (fast goes to Vanessa, ronin, depending on S&S and if I want to kill something armoured)... Turn 2 I always aim to remove as many AP from my opponent as possible, ignoring their master, so that scoring vp for them is extremely hard. Then if my key pieces die who cares as long as my scoring ones survive n do what they are wmant to do.
So so fast... Plant explosives is my fave with them
Can also outshoot a lot, throw in rusty alyce and make her fast along with Vanessa and the viks and hurt them as the come towards you if the pool allows.
I could type for ages about the viks, my faves
