Starting Hamelin

[thunderwolf]

So I’m building my Hamelin crew

i have starter + benny and title Hamelin and disease control

should I get some versatile models ?

im leaning towards title and was thinking of bringing Mad Dig or Barbaros ?

generally vs guild or fights crews so feel I want a beater or two 

any advice on what to buy or it in crew ?

Just to confirm, do you have Brotherhood of the Rat? It isn't so important in Hamelin2 but you will need those models at some point. 

 

I like Rusty Alyce and Scavengers with Hamelin2, and the Starter Box versatiles (particularly Yannic and the Brawler) synergise nicely with them and with the DCU.

Cheers , yes sorry have rat box also

I don’t have Levi box atm

hiw about mad dog or Hans or Barbara?

[Azahul]

Mad Dog works fine with Hamelin2. I use Barbaros in Hamelin1 from time to time. I don't have much use for Hans in either, both Hamelins tend to run slower crews and Hans is hard to score with. The Midnight Stalker can sneak in from time to time though for exactly that reason.

What strategy do you think for Hamelin 2 ?

any to avoid ?

[Azahul]

He's not very fast so I would probably avoid Carve a Path and sometimes Guard the Stash (depending on deployment). Obey is a useful tool though in Guard and especially Covert Operations, and he likes just killing so he's ok at Cursed Objects but doesn't have a great plan if your opponent is good at keeping you at arm's length. You can pack in a lot of firepower though to balance that.
