trikk Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 What mercenaries do you use with Guild? Malifaux Child is good for Sonnia for Flamewall What about other? Lady Justice and Killjoy Bomb? Student of Conflict? What are your ideas or experiences? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterDisaster Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 I don't tend to use many but I've tried the FK Specialist and Sue with Sonnia. FK Trappers are pretty good snipers and I throw one of them in from time to time. Also I'd imagine Performers with McMourning would be good. Additionally Burt Jebson should do well with Sonnia thanks to his Crackerjack Timing and blasty goodness. At 4ss in the Outcasts the Student is pretty pricey, at 5ss as a merc it's a no-go for me! Guild are a pretty solid faction though so rarely do I feel the need for Mercs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirial Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Likewise. I'd love to try Ronin with Lucius, and Taelor with Justice for Beater Girls from Hell, but buying a Viktorias box... it's a slippery slope. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Performer... Send help! (Since I started playing 2 months ago I have McCabe, Sonnia, Lady J, Lucius, Malifaux Child, Lone Marshall, Governor Proxy, Hoffman, Tannen, Graves, Doppelganger and currently shipped: Viktorias, Executioniers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterDisaster Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Why not add Vanessa if you do? Good idea, I love the way you think! Also add Freikorps Librarians, Lazarus, Hans, Johan, Bishop, Sue, Convict Gunslingers, Hannah, Void Wretches, Strongarm Suit, Killjoy, Malifaux Child.... Wait... I'm starting to see how steep a slope this really is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterDisaster Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Vanessa isn't a mercenary. No but if you're buying the Viks you might as well buy Vanessa too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bengt Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 No but if you're buying the Viks you might as well buy Vanessa too. True true, and if you buy Vanessa you have to buy Lazarus. I'm pretty sure that's a law. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehMik Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Vanessa isn't a mercenary. Right, but if he gets all the other things he might as well play Outcasts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterDisaster Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 True true, and if you buy Vanessa you have to buy Lazarus. I'm pretty sure that's a law. Exactly! Then you are instantly referred to my list of other Outcasts/Mercs and the fun just keeps coming! Screw Guild, go Outcasts! Also the unwritten rule on Malifaux... Just buy Bishop! DO IT!

Bengt Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Screw Guild, go Outcasts! Yes, once you have Lazarus you'll hate Guild, it says so right there on his card! Anything else is cheating! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LunarSol Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 I fell down this slope and... kind of... regret it... sort of. Mostly its just that the really awesome Mercenary setup of Outcasts drops off into full on Ressers. The real danger is falling past Viks to Tara, who leads to Daw and Hamelin and Leveticus, who lead to Seamus and Molly and Kirai and Yan Lo and... I cut myself short on Viks and Freikorps, but it does leave Outcasts feeling a bit as something to play on a whim as opposed to something to really invest in. Luckily, the Freikorps are a wonderfully insular group that makes the side project feel less incomplete than some other masters but I do wish there was a better objective runner without jumping into Oblivion.

trikk Posted April 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 I`m thinking abour running Lady J + KIlljoy in a game, if the Scheme`s make sense. Lady J goes all Kill Bill with her greatsword and if kill her... then ummm. HEREEEEE`S KILLJOY. I will also try Sonnia + Child and when Viks are finally here.... Taelor Justice and Lucius Ronin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you spend so many SS for a model, you want to have it on the table fast. Each turn it is buried, you lose its AP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to try Ronin with Lucius, and Taelor with Justice for Beater Girls from Hell, but buying a Viktorias box... it's a slippery slope. Just painted up my Victorias and I'm pretty excited to proxy them as Ronin with Lucius. My experience is that they chew up the Guild Guards he normally takes as scheme runners (walkers really) and being unchargeable and hard to pin down in melee makes them seem like a really solid option for the kinds of crews I run with him.
