Dorian Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 So I was thinking. . . Put a wound on desperate merc. (It now has + on attack) (0) For my family (+3 Cb dmg ++, sac at end close phase) (1) Uncontrolled fire (1) Uncontrolled fire Nurse gives desperate merc reactivate (1) Uncontrolled fire (1) Uncontrolled fire Zoraida obeys desperate merc (1) Uncontrolled fire Thats 10 cb5 shots (albeit range 8) with + on attack, crit on rams 2/3/4 & ++ on damage. From one model. This terrify anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rathnard Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Assuming you can keep the Desperate Merc alive long enough to put out all those shots, it's pretty potent. In fact you can even get another two uncontrolled fires out of the Desperate Merc by first using the voodoo doll's obey, then making a new voodoo doll with Zoraida and having that Voodoo doll also use obey. Hell, throw in a Sorrow and it could cast yet another obey as well. That said, you need to take the Nurse for more than just a Desperate Merc, such as an additional desperate merc, AZoraida, a few more sacrificial Terror Tot's/Wicked Dolls or some minions with Shrug Off like Papa Loco, Sue and McTavish. Otherwise it's just too costly for what amounts to a single turn of excessive shooting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fading Memory Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 a single turn of excessive shooting. Who doesn't like excessive shooting? :AR15firin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Metal Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Who doesn't like excessive shooting? The person getting shot at would probably be the answer to that question. =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same amount of shooting and a second option for your obeys if your opponent takes down the first DM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From one model. This terrify anyone else? Well its really from 3 models. After all you're using the Nurses activation and some of Zoraidas (if you go for the 3 obey Zoraida turn then its 5 models to get the 14 shots). With time inbetween each activation to get out of line of sight, or just kill it. Looks scary on paper, less so on the tabletop. Its still good, just not that good.

Shank Seamus! Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 Iv used a desperate merc once and I only did the first stage of that.. felt bad enough for my opponent then.. but I do now own a zoraida crew.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnG Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 another problem is if i remember the card right the crit with rams is only on the sword not the second hand pistol. I like to poke them with the nurse with the +2 walk / +2 Charge and the +2 cb with melee and then give them reactivate, then voodoo doll, zorada (summon new doll) across the board or instead of reactivate give them cant die and push them out into them so they know its going to hit with 4:+fate the flip :violin:too bad your limited to only get + 3:+fate, that and you cant get the +3 for your family till you activate but then you get your base 11 to hit!

nilus Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Well I never tried it but in a Nico list I have done this 1) Turned a Merc Undead using the necrotic machine 2) Gave him reactivate from a nurse 3) Nico bolsters undead Its two shots less then yours and an additional step, but the +2 CB means the other 8 shots have a lot easier time hitting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
