madaxeman Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Johan is an MS&U mercenary in an Arcanist crew - can he use the MS&U specific "Bleeding Edge Tech" upgrade? Reading the rules I can't see why not (page 72, "A model may only have upgrades of the crews decalred factionj, regardless of the models faction"), however it's not an option in the online Crew Creator. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirial Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 I think you're right on that. Probably an oversight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiveCommander Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Not a bad place to put it in a Ramos crew, either. Frees up Joss to take something else; since I normally run him with BET and Open Current, being able to pass BET onto someone else so Joss can grab Imbued Energies is mighty tempting. I just need to get my hands on a Johan card and get him painted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zFiend Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 That's a lot of upgrading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirial Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 The downside of playing Arcanists? Too many good upgrades. First World problems... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiveCommander Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Too many good elite models, too. It's always so tempting to have Joss, Howard and Mech Rider but that doesn't leave you much, even at 50ss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zFiend Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 That's why I like Ramos. Start elite, summon the minions. It's a solid play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraetorDragoon Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Something that also works great for ressers. Johan not being able to take certain upgrades is most likely just an issue with Crew Creator. The generic wave 2 upgrades aren't added either as far as I know.

MasterDisaster Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Johan can take any upgrades that aren't restricted for him regardless of his declared faction / crew. If he was with Neverborn he could take their upgrades. So long as he meets the restriction requirements on the bottom of the upgrade card and is part of his crews declared faction he can go to town with any of their fancy kit. I usually give my Johan Imbued Energies or Bleeding Edge Tech when he's with my Ramos crew. It's always been pretty effective for me although I use him in his proper faction more often than not.
