Yeasir Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 Just curious who you think our best henchman is for a 25ss tournie. I am leaning toward Nix or Rusty Alyce, but am willing to hear any thoughts. Feel free to post a list too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexus Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 I'm a fan of Aionus. He is fairly tough, does pretty good damage, gets a bonus AP, can hand out Fast or Slow, can manipulate scheme markers, and generally supports just about anything you want to do. In a 25 pt list, bringing a 12pt Henchman for free (especially one who does as much as Aionus) can have a pretty big impact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnternalVoid Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 I am a fan of Hannah for Outcast crews at Henchman levels. she is pretty tough, can hit hard, and with a Librarian on your team that much better as it gives her access to healing and the ability to copy another attack. Give her I Pay Better and she is even rougher as it makes it more likely she will get her blast off. As said Aionus would be another good one. With a couple models like Johan that hit pretty hard for their ss cost you could have a pretty fast and nasty hitting force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freman Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 I favour Rusty Alyce because she's fairly solid in all aspects, but I haven't tried Aionus. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Druso Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Hannah is a really good model, I usually bring her when I play Jack Daw or Leveticus. You will have a model with decent resilience, damage and that is abble to (if you pick her 2ss upgrade) bury a model. In a 25ss match Im pretty sure you will face a low model crew...so having the chance of avoid 1/4 of their crew is funny. You can even bury their leader (I was really happy when I bury a Rasputina). You should use your better card to do it, and maybe a ss to gain that mask but I think that is a great deal. Rusty Alyce is nice too, damage at range and melee and the big ability Snares it is. Oh, and don´t forget about her Wk6!! I haven´t tried Aionus, but Im with Nexus... having a 12ss model for free is nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeasir Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 I am thinking a Rusty Alyce gunline. Something like: Rusty Alyce, double trapper, Lazarus My only concern is low model count but I am hoping super high mobility makes up for it. Aionus seems like an awesome choice, too. He is effectively a free 12 PT model. But he only has a cache of 1, so you are investing some SS to get him to a playable range. He may be worth a go though. He seems super strong. Anyone ever have luck with Montressor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DXXXVIII Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 aionius with i pay better and freikorps-trappers is funny. Rusty with that scary melee and reactivating deso engine is scary as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
