M_Ruckuss Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 If I hire nurse, bishop or some non-neverborn model whilst using a NB crew do I purchase NB upgrades for it or its own factions, or either? so does bishop use outcast, NB or either? also, can a dual faction model use either faction or just declared faction?

Joel Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 You can only use upgrades from your declared faction. It means that mercenaries and other out of faction enforcers or henchmen will have neverborn upgrades only while part of that crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phototoxin Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 Can you hire a Nurse in a Neverborn crew? That's what's gotten me scrabbling for my rulebook.... :Paralyzed_Puppet: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myth Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 Can you hire a Nurse in a Neverborn crew? Zoraida can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Ruckuss Posted October 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 No I can't, henchman only...and scramble worked quite well never mind.... Hannah can however... She and candy are my current pick of henchmen for Z....! Candy causes soapy problems by just standing there....! Hannah is awesome with soul stone bubble and defence duel bubble....!

Falconrider Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 I plan on trying out Hannah with Zoriada, though have been using Ototo with his 3" melee bubble and his heal combines well with nexus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See I played ottoto with Z w/o the upgrades and he wasn't great. Now I may try him again, although I really like nurse/candy/bishop and 1 from kade; dopple or beckoner (with Lilitu probably joining that list at some point too....! As a slight aside, is candys melee range/engagement range really 3"...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Ruckuss Posted October 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Yes it is God she's horrible.....! > Hannah, juju, ottoto, barbarus are all good but she is just horrible! Obviously huggy is the kingpin but I can't take him with Z...! What are ur thoughts on bishop with z Joel? Zoraida, nurse and candy is my staple ATM with cache 7 and upgrades on Z and C. I've always run dopple or kade with bishop with nexus of power on one of them- any other combo I'm missing (papa loco is another, as is hans, but I think he will work best with Lucius......!)

Joel Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 I'm not as big a fan of candy as you are Bishop is good in many crews, but being able to be obeyed into position with zoraida before he strikes is great. Doppleganger is getting a lot of play from me in many crews too. Kade not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Ruckuss Posted October 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Why not a candy fan-just interested as she's been great for me! Bishop is there as the hitter, solid in many crews I think. Kade is interesting but i still haven't quite gotten him to always work. Dopple is very useful but I think she misses the ability to heal. I have taken a dopple in every Jacob build I have used sand it has done me proud! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Candy feels like pandora-lite to me. She replicates a lot of what pandora does and I'm not sure the crew needs that, rather than adding a henchman that attacks in a different way to compliment Pandora. She's done well for me when I've used her, but. I feel it skews the crew in a certain direction to run both candy and pandora and that crew is less flexible. Now, adding candy to another master like lynch - that has potential! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Ruckuss Posted October 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Althought that would mean no huggy surely? Zoraida and candy has worked brilliantly- she nullifies while zoraida abuses and bishop smashes! But i am going to try out Hannah, nurse and three Silurid...

I think I'd only take her in bigger games if I was taking her at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have multiple henchmen in a crew. You just cannot have multiple totems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 yes, the Df bubbles stack - if a model was caught between 2, then they would need 2 tests and would have the potential to take 6 damage on activating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a very good idea, i've never considered doubling up this upgrade on 2 henchmen. I might try having Papa Loco pulse bom, explode then move 2 fears given form henchmen where he was. Things could get nasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 After the explosion, that might be overkill, but it's worth trying out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fetid Strumpet Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Just be aware that the fears given form upgrade affects your models too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
