If you remove non keyword hiring, are you just heading to removing Factions from the game? That's why above I also mention the importance of OOKs. Without OOKs you have no tech picks, and lists would quickly become identical every game. No OOKs is worse than too many OOKs IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Same with 1E, except for a handful of models (mostly Freikorps) who had a rule that bumped it to +2 and a few models like Desperate Mercenaries that got the rule Comes Cheap that removed it entirely.

I think it was only performers that had High class (Merc tax of 2). Friekorps had the restrictions that you couldn't hire them as a merc if you had any non friekoprs mercs. M1 gave us a look at taking keyword to the extreme in its treatment of the outcast faction, which was basically 4 unique hiring pools, with about only 4 models in total that could be hired by more than 1 master in that faction. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dannydb 198 Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 I'm currently taking part in an event where I'm currently playing all in keyword and having no counter picks vs some masters have just lead to some non games Having no anti shooting vs seamus, no aoe vs hamilin or no ruthless and almost entirely wp 5 vs jackdaw has been far from a fair fight 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
